Extracting IPK files from rooted webOS TV

Open coolfizzin opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

I don't actually have a rooted TV right now; I'm waiting for the next rootmytv update. However, as far as I know, the way to get an IPK file is to find the URL within the download history: https://www.reddit.com/r/webos/comments/otdxci/find_ipk_or_source_code/

Might it be possible for you to simplify this process by making dev-manager-desktop able to scrape the URLs automatically?

This is clearly no big issue, but In thought it might be a worthwhile suggestion. Thanks for all of your hard work.

Hi, the files in IPKs (for web apps) are DRM protected, so I'm afraid it would not be very practical to extract IPKs.
