Some checks failed
dev release / build (push) Failing after 12s
Builds out the full v1 scope: a vendored+patched openscreen subset for low-latency Cast Streaming (Mirroring receiver 0F5096E8) alongside the existing Cast V2/HLS and new DLNA/AVTransport casting paths, breadcastd's Idle/Casting state machine with a private IPC socket, the breadcast GTK4 popup as a thin IPC client, and bread.cast.*/bread.command.cast.* breadd integration (device discovery, start/stop, mirroring lifecycle events). Also adds bakery/systemd/Forgejo CI packaging. Validated end-to-end against a real Chromecast/Google TV: negotiated Cast Streaming session, live pipeline playback, and daemon+GUI click-to-cast/ stop through the actual popup.

`breadcast` — cast your screen to any Chromecast/Google TV, for Hyprland
|
|
(daemon + GTK4 popup).
|
|
|
|
Part of the bread ecosystem; this repo follows the same branch/release
|
|
workflow as every other ecosystem product.
|
|
|
|
## Branches
|
|
|
|
- **`main`** — release branch, always tag-ready. Nothing is committed to it
|
|
directly; it only moves forward via a `beta` merge (see below).
|
|
- **`dev`** — integration branch. All day-to-day work lands here first.
|
|
Every push to `dev` automatically builds and publishes a **dev-track**
|
|
build (see Tracks below) — use this to test your change in a real install
|
|
before it goes any further.
|
|
- **`beta`** — a frozen stabilization branch, cut from `dev` periodically.
|
|
Every push to `beta` automatically builds and publishes a **beta-track**
|
|
build. While a freeze is active, only fixes for issues found *in that
|
|
freeze* should land on `beta`.
|
|
|
|
New work — features and bug fixes alike — goes on a short-lived branch:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
feature/<short-name>
|
|
fix/<issue-number-or-short-name>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Branch off `dev`, open a PR/push back into `dev` when ready. If you're fixing
|
|
something reported against an active `beta` freeze, branch off `beta`
|
|
instead, merge the fix there to unblock testers, and also forward the same
|
|
fix into `dev` so it doesn't quietly reappear next cycle.
|
|
|
|
## The release cycle
|
|
|
|
1. Work accumulates on `dev` via `feature/x` / `fix/x` branches. Each push
|
|
auto-publishes a dev build — install it with `bakery track set dev` and
|
|
`bakery update --all`, then report or fix anything broken with another
|
|
push to `dev`.
|
|
2. Once `dev` has gone roughly **a week** without new issues, `beta` is cut
|
|
fresh from `dev`'s current tip. This freezes it as the stabilization
|
|
target — `dev` keeps moving independently starting the next cycle.
|
|
3. `beta` is open for anyone to test: `bakery track set beta` and
|
|
`bakery update --all`. **File issues against anything you find on this
|
|
repo's Forgejo issue tracker.** Fixes land via `fix/<issue>` branches
|
|
merged into `beta`.
|
|
4. Once `beta` has gone roughly **a month** without new issues, it's merged
|
|
into `main` and tagged `vX.Y.Z` — that tag is what actually triggers the
|
|
stable release build. `beta` is then reset from `dev` to start the next
|
|
cycle.
|
|
|
|
## Tracks, from a user's perspective
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
bakery track show # what you're currently on (defaults to stable)
|
|
bakery track set dev # or beta, or stable
|
|
bakery update --all # pull the latest build on your current track
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
| Track | What it is | Published from |
|
|
|--------|-----------|-----------------|
|
|
| `stable` | The last tagged release | `main`, on a `vX.Y.Z` tag push |
|
|
| `beta` | Current stabilization freeze | `beta`, on every push |
|
|
| `dev` | Bleeding edge | `dev`, on every push |
|
|
|
|
Dev/beta versions are auto-computed (`X.Y.Z-dev.<timestamp>+<sha>` /
|
|
`-beta.…`) from the latest published stable tag, so they always sort as
|
|
newer than what you have installed — no manual version bumping needed when
|
|
pushing to `dev` or `beta`.
|
|
|
|
## Local development
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
cargo build --release --workspace
|
|
cargo test --release --workspace
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## CI
|
|
|
|
- `dev-release.yml` — triggered on push to `dev`.
|
|
- `beta-release.yml` — triggered on push to `beta`.
|
|
- `release.yml` — triggered on a `v*` tag push, cuts the actual stable release.
|
|
|
|
All CI runs on a self-hosted runner; nothing runs automatically on plain
|
|
commits or PRs beyond the track builds above. See
|
|
[bread-ecosystem's docs/release-channels.md](https://git.breadway.dev/Breadway/bread-ecosystem/src/branch/main/docs/release-channels.md)
|
|
for the full policy, including how a new product gets wired onto these tracks.
