This is an auxiliary utility script files used to help jpdfbookmarks create Native Installer (Windows .msi , Linux .rpm , Linux .deb).
The following content is translated from Chinese to English using Google Translate.
-
Generate jpdfbookmarks Native Installer (Windows .msi , Linux .rpm , Linux .deb)
-
JRE has been packaged, users do not need to install JRE.
-
Users can click on the PDF file in the GUI file manager, click the right mouse button, and the system will pop up Open With, and can use jpdfbookmarks to open the PDF.
-
Users can also execute the
jpdfbookmarks_cli
command in the terminal as a command. -
Users do not need to do it manually: add the installation directory to the PATH environment variable.
-
Wrappers no longer need to pack these files in:
-
exe generated by launch4j (jpdfbookmarks.exe,jpdfbookmarks_cli.exe)
-
and jpdfbookmarks, jpdfbookmarks_cli, link_this_in_linux_path.sh, link_this_in_linux_path_cli.sh.
-
Just download this project ( github.com/life888888/JPdfBookmarks_INSTALLER_BUILD/archive/refs/heads/main.zip ), unzip the zip , and then execute the corresponding command file according to your needs, you can generate the installation file of jpdfbookmarks.
-
1. platform ( Linux - RPM , Linux - DEB , Windows)
-
2. version ( jpdfbookmarks 2.5.2 , 2.5.4 , 3.0.2)
-
JDK 17 (Just install it with SDKMAN)
-
RPM Development Tools must be installed (
sudo yum groupinstall 'RPM Development Tools'
)
cd JPdfBookmarks_INSTALLER_BUILD/src
./build-installer-rpm-pre-setup.sh
-
JDK 17 (Just install it with SDKMAN)
cd JPdfBookmarks_INSTALLER_BUILD/src
./build-installer-deb-pre-setup.sh

At this point, you should be able to complete the packaging of your jpdfbookmarks native installer.
Then there are broken thoughts! If you want more technical details, read further, otherwise you can close this document now.
After the installation is complete, how do I verify that it works?
Test PDF files can be downloaded from here: jpdfbookmarks-test-pdf-examples-dist-1.0.0.tar.xz
-
[✓] Does the splash screen appear when jpdfbookmark is executed?
-
[✓] When jpdfbookmark_cli is executed, will a console/terminal window appear?
-
[✓] When jpdfbookmark_cli is executed, splash screen should not appear.
-
[✓] Whether jpdfbookmark or jpdfbookmark_cli can be executed in any path (whether the PATH setting is successful)
-
[✓] In the file manager, when clicking on a PDF, is it possible to use the right mouse button to display jpdfbookmark?
-
[✓] In the file manager, when you click on the PDF, can you use the right mouse button? In the Open With Application list, is there a jpdfbookmark that can be selected?
Only jpdfbookmarks 2.5.4 / 3.0.2 can display bookmarks with Chinese characters normally, other versions only display Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc. as tofu character.
jpdfbookmarks_cli -e UTF-8 -d -o INDEX.txt README-zh_CN.pdf
jpdfbookmarks_cli -e UTF-8 -a INDEX.txt -o README-zh_CN_NEW.pdf README-zh_CN.pdf

When running jpdfbookmarks / jpdfbookmarks_cli on Windows, please remember to add |
jpdfbookmarks cli --help
, if there is a message as shown in the figure, it means that the settings of the installer are normalIf you want jpdfbookmarks to display Chinese/Japanese/Korean, please download here:
-
Linux - DEB - Ubuntu 20.04
-
Linux - RPM - Oracle Linux 8 (oracle.github.io/vagrant-projects/boxes/oraclelinux/8-btrfs.json)
-
Windows 10 - MSEdge on Win10 (x64) Stable 1809 - VirtualBox (developer.microsoft.com/microsoft-edge/tools/vms/)
-
SDKMAN - used to install JDK (Linux)
-
OpenJDK 17 - use jpackage to package as .deb, .rpm, .msi
-
WiX Toolset v3.11.2 - to assist with packaging as .msi (Windows)
In this project, the relevant technical points that can be learned are described as follows:
In this project, the jpackage function built into JDK is mainly used.
Restriction of jpackage: Only the corresponding native installer file can be generated on a single platform (host os).
-
In Linux (deb - Ubuntu), only .deb files can be generated, and installation files in .rpm, .msi and other formats cannot be generated.
-
In Linux (rpm - Oracle Linux, Red Hat Linux), only .rpm files can be generated, and installation files in .deb, .msi and other formats cannot be generated.
-
In Windows, only .msi or .exe files can be generated, and installation files in .deb, .rpm and other formats cannot be generated.
Therefore, if you want to generate installation files corresponding to different platforms, you must go to different platforms to generate corresponding native installers one by one.
In addition, some parameters of jpakcage correspond to specific platforms. If Linux-specific parameters are given on the windows platform, an error will occur, resulting in failure to package the native installer file.
Also like the --icon parameter, Windows only accepts .ico file format, while Linux platform only accepts .png file format.
To let the operating system know what mime type and what program to open a certain format (.pdf or .html), we can use --file-associations jpdfbookmarks.mime.properties
to specify the relevant settings in an external file , the format is as follows:
mime-type=application/pdf
extension=pdf
description=PDF
Here is just to tell the OS that our jpdfbookmarks can handle pdf.
But the linux operating system does not add jpdfbookmarks to Open With.
So we overwrite the original .desktop file. Please note the %f
inside, be sure to add it. In order to allow the operating system to have Open With or Open With Other Application can appear in the system menu.

jpackage defaults to only have one launcher point, but JPdfBookmarks has a jpdfbookmarks_cli in addition to jpdfbookmarks, it must be terminal / console , and must be no splash splash screen.
We use --add-launcher jpdfbookmarks_cli=jpdfbookmarks_cli.linux.launcher
or --add-launcher jpdfbookmarks_cli=jpdfbookmarks_cli.windows.launcher
to let jpackage know to add a second set of startup programs jpdfbookmarks_cli
win-console=true
java-options="-Djava.util.logging.config.file=$APPDIR/conf/jpdfbookmarks.logging.properties" "-splash:" "-ms64m" "-mx512m"
Note that the value of win-console in windows is set to true, which is used to tell the jpdfbookmarks program to start with a console.
In addition, the parameters after java-options can be placed in multiple, use "
to wrap, and use ` ` (space) to separate multiple parameters.
java-options="-Djava.util.logging.config.file=$APPDIR/conf/jpdfbookmarks.logging.properties" "-splash:" "-ms64m" "-mx512m"
But like in Linux there is no one called linux console, this part actually needs to be modified through the .desktop file.
Note: the following setting Terminal=true
.

This is found from JPackage update "PATH" environment variable
It is an answer message from ksenobyte.
The steps and instructions he provided are enough for me to complete this requirement.
His answer was the most valuable answer when I was searching for JPackage Wix Toolset PATH environment variable
question!!!
At present, I have only seen this description, there are references to the override of JPackage on the Windows platform.
Thank you very much for this ksenobyte answer message.
Because of this information, the packaged msi can automatically set the jpdfbookmarks installation directory to the PATH environment variable.
We use
-
--resource-dir linuxOverride
to specify where is the archive directory to overwrite!!! (REFjpdfbookmarks.linux.jpackage.settings
) -
Linux can use custom files section containing
launcher.png
,launcher.desktop
.-
Note: The launcher here should be replaced with app name , such as jpdfbookmarks, jpdfbookmarks_cli , so the corresponding file will be jpdfbookmarks.png, jpdfbookmarks_cli.png , jpdfbookmarks.desktop, jpdfbookmarks_cli.desktop.
-
-
Linux DEBs can use custom file sections containing
control
,preinst
,prerm
,postinst
,postrm
,copyright
. -
Linux RPMs can use the custom file section to include
package-name.spec
, where the package-name is the same as the app name, so it will be jpdfbookmarks.spec.
When executing jpackage, just add --temp xxxx
, you can find the file that jpackage needs to package according to your parameters in the xxxx directory, we can copy the part that needs to be modified, and then modify it.
I copied the modified part to the linux Override directory.
The aforementioned jpdfbookmarks.desktop
, jpdfbookmarks_cli.desktop
and postinst
, postrm
, jpdfbookmarks.spec
are copied from jpackage plus --temp xxxx
output xxxx subdirectory, be modified.

Version: 3.0.2
is written in jpdfbookmarks.spec, I have to copy multiple files with the same content, and then modify Version: xxx
, so I have jpdfbookmarks.spec.2.5.2
, jpdfbookmarks .spec.2.5.4
, jpdfbookmarks.spec.3.0.2
Before executing, copy jpdfbookmarks.spec.2.5.2
to jpdfbookmarks.spec
If no additional parameters are set, jpackage will automatically package jre for you.
But jpackage can decide which modules to package according to the given module in ‵--add-modules‵.
The msi/deb/rpm of jpdfbookmarks with the ‵--add-modules‵ parameter can be changed from 58 MB to 34 MB.
jdeps -cp "lib/*" \
--module-path "lib/*" \
--multi-release 9 \
--print-module-deps \
--ignore-missing-deps \
jpdfbookmarks.jar
Then go to the lib directory and use the jars in it to find the corresponding module with instructions similar to the above.
Finally, sort them out, and then use ,
to separate them.
In this project, we directly download jpdfbookmarks 2.5.2 (compiled and packaged with Java 6), unpack it, and then use the jpackage command to repackage it.
So regardless of whether your program is compiled and packaged with JDK 9+, you can use jpackage to repackage the native installer.
But the packaged JDK version must be at least 14+, because JDK 14+ only has the jpackage command to use.
You can use java-options to specify parameters that would otherwise be given by external parameters, such as -DXXXXX
, -mxXXXm
, -msXXXm
.
--java-options "-Djava.util.logging.config.file=$APPDIR/conf/jpdfbookmarks.logging.properties"
--java-options "-splash:$APPDIR/splash.png"
--java-options "-ms64m"
--java-options "-mx512m"
In addition, it should be noted that the Splash screen, if it was originally set in the main jar, will not take effect here, and must be given through the java-options parameter.
Alternatively, you can use the $APPDIR
proxy to wrap the installation directory.
--java-options "-splash:$APPDIR/splash.png"
A few highlights:
-
How to call PowerShell from BAT file
PowerShell.exe -command ".\addPATH.ps1"
-
Power Shell, finds the current directory location, and adds it to the user’s PATH environment variable. (If it is an environment variable to be added to the system level, the following
User
should be changed toMachine
.
$dir = Get-Location
$path = [Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable('PATH', 'User') -split ';' |
Where-Object { $_ -ne $dir }
$path += $dir
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable('PATH', ($path -join ';'), 'User')
-
deprecated - Powser Shell, if you want to find the previous directory of the current directory location (‵$dir = Split-Path -Path $dir -Parent‵), and add it to the user’s PATH environment variable. (If it is an environment variable to be added to the system level, the following
User
should be changed toMachine
.
$dir = Get-Location
$dir = Split-Path -Path $dir -Parent
$path = [Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable('PATH', 'User') -split ';' |
Where-Object { $_ -ne $dir }
$path += $dir
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable('PATH', ($path -join ';'), 'User')
Use WHERE xxx
, to confirm whether the xxx command exists? If the xxx command does not exist, ‵%ERRORLEVEL%‵ is not equal to ‵0`.
This can be used to check whether WiX has been successfully configured and whether jpackage can be found (JDK 11 does not have jpackage, so it will not fail when the jpackage command is executed later)
WHERE light
IF %ERRORLEVEL% NEQ 0 (
ECHO light command wasn't found, please check WiX Toolset Install is finish?
goto WiX_NOT_READY
) ELSE (
REM ECHO light command is ready. Process next step...
goto WiX_READY
)
Sometimes, due to download problems, the downloaded zip file is incomplete, and subsequent decompression will fail, so we need to use %ERRORLEVEL%
to check whether the decompression fails after decompression.
jar -xvf jpdfbookmarks-2.5.2.zip
REM CHECK UNZIP IS OK ?
IF %ERRORLEVEL% NEQ 0 (
ECHO UNZIP jpdfbookmarks-2.5.2.zip IS FAIL !
goto JPDFBOOKMARKS_FILE_NOT_READY
) ELSE (
REM ECHO jar command is ready. Process next step...
goto JPDFBOOKMARKS_FILE_UNZIP_READY
)
6.14. Use system build-in commands or trusted third-party tool commands as much as possible on Windows
-
Downloading Archives - Using Windows 10’s built-in curl command
-
Unzip Archive - Unzip using the JDK built-in jar command
-
Originally, we need to specifically declare that two options need to be checked when installing JDK manually. Now we can directly specify parameters through msiexec command (
FeatureJavaHome
,FeatureOracleJavaSoft
is to let the installer set the environment variable JAVA_HOME and the Windows code of Oracle Java Soft.
msiexec /i OpenJDK17U-jdk_x64_windows_hotspot_17.0.2_8.msi ADDLOCAL=FeatureEnvironment,FeatureJarFileRunWith,FeatureJavaHome,FeatureOracleJavaSoft /qb
-
If needed, we can add INSTALLDIR="C:\TOOLS\jpdfbookmarks" to directly give the installation directory of jpdfbookmarks.
msiexec /i jpdfbookmarks-3.0.2_x64.msi INSTALLDIR="C:\TOOLS\jpdfbookmarks" /qb
-
The parameter /qb only displays the most basic GUI, omits other processes, and executes the installation directly.
6.16.1. jpackage always reports an error: Error: Invalid or unsupported type: [null]
or Error: Invalid or unsupported type: [rpm]
Out-of-the-box vagrant box settings to use when testing jpackage with Oracle Linux (RPM):
$ mkdir VM_oraclelinux_8-btrfs
$ cd VM_oraclelinux_8-btrfs
$ vagrant init oraclelinux/8-btrfs https://oracle.github.io/vagrant-projects/boxes/oraclelinux/8-btrfs.json
$ vagrant up
$ vagrant ssh
...
Using jpackage
always reports an error:
Error: Invalid or unsupported type: [null]
or Error: Invalid or unsupported type: [rpm]
This error, originally thought to be related to using SDKMAN to install jdk, and later using yum install java-17* is no solution!!!
The final solution is: To install 'RPM Development Tools'.
The command is sudo yum groupinstall 'RPM Development Tools'
Here it is organized in build-installer-rpm-pre-setup.sh
.
In Windows, use curl to automatically download JDK, manually paste the download URL in CMD.exe, and the download can be successful, but after pasting it into the bat file, the execution of the bat file will always fail.
Check the JDK download URL (github.com/adoptium/temurin17-binaries/releases/download/jdk-17.0.2%2B8/OpenJDK17U-jdk_x64_windows_hotspot_17.0.2_8.msi) contains a special character ‵%‵, which causes bat to fail.
The solution is to use %%
to avoid errors.
%%
to avoid errors.curl -L -o OpenJDK17U-jdk_x64_windows_hotspot_17.0.2_8.msi "https://github.com/adoptium/temurin17-binaries/releases/download/jdk-17.0.2%%2B8/OpenJDK17U-jdk_x64_windows_hotspot_17.0.2_8.msi"
So now this version of the bat file can be done so that the JDK can be downloaded automatically.
6.16.3. Setting environment variables using the setx command will result in multiple duplicate settings
The original instruction used setx to set environment variables, but it was flawed and caused multiple duplicate settings.
So now abandon the use of setx
, and use the powershell method to set (REF addPATH.ps1).
The conclusion is don’t use setx
.
The msi file downloaded from Github, when you click to install directly, Windows will pop up Windows protected your PC, and then won’t let you install!!!
-
Solution 1: In fact, it can still be installed, just click More info in the prompt window, and then click Run anyway to force the installation.
-
Solution 2: Use the command line to install instead, use the command to install
msiexec -i jpdfbookmarks-3.0.2_x64.msi /qb
, you can install it directly without popping out the warning window.
6.16.5. After Linux finishes installing SDKMAN and installing JDK through SDKMAN, the subsequent shell script cannot find command jpackage
Because after installing SDKMAN in Linux, the environment variables will be set, but the environment variables will not take effect until a new Terminal is opened. JDK, but the subsequent shell script in the current terminal will not find the jpackage command.
The solution is to prompt the user to close the current Terminal after installing SDKMAN and JDK, and let the user close the current Terminal and then reopen the new Terminal.
-
Extract the platform-related parameters to an external file, use @XXXX ,
-
Make the command body almost similar, separate the platform-specific or format-related ones in external files,
-
In addition, the command body extracted from the version-specific part:

[✓] msi for Windows: Modify the settings in WiX so that the msi installation file can automatically add the installation directory of jpdfbookmarks to the PATH environment variable after the installation is complete. I have not found out how to complete this part. (Done.)
-
❏ MacOS packaging: I will talk about it later if I have a MacOS environment!!!
No wrapper directive for MacOS?
Yes, no! Because I don’t have a MacOS environment to test!!!
The following outputs are produced through this tool command:
10.1. JPdfBookmarks-2.5.2
10.2. JPdfBookmarks-2.5.4

In this project, you can use this project to help you repackage jpdfbookmarks' native installer on your machine.
-
The new Native Installer allows you to use
Open With
after installation, use the file manager, and click on the PDF. -
The new Native Installer allows you to install without having to set
PATH
or to link to/usr/bin
(Linux). -
The new Native Installer allows you to install without having to set
PATH
(Windows - WiX Toolset). -
There are also the
pit
encountered in the execution of jpackage in Linux - RPM and the solution I found by myself. -
How to use jpackage’s override.
-
How to use jpackage’s @ files.
-
In this project, the different aspects of parameter usage of multiple jpackages are shown, so that you can better understand the meaning of the parameters in the file!!!
-
In the same way, you can repackage your own or someone else’s executable jar into a native installer (msi, deb, rpm).
