This repository contains the source code for building a Snap package (called a `snap`) from the latest stable
release of [DuckDB](https://github.com/duckdb/duckdb/releases/).

I made this package to make it easier to install DuckDB on different GNU/Linux distributions like Debian, Ubuntu,
Fedora, etc. and to keep it up-to-date.
Currently, the package is built for the `amd64` architecture only.

**Note that this is an unofficial Snap package for DuckDB.**

Please use the [Issues page](https://github.com/habedi/duckdb-snap/issues) to report bugs.

## Installation

```bash
# Install the Snap package from the Snap Store
sudo snap install duckdb --stable
```

```bash
# Run the commands below if you encounter permission errors while using the DuckDB shell
sudo snap connect duckdb:removable-media
sudo snap connect duckdb:system-observe 
```

## Development
