## Includes

    #include <gnome-software.h>

## Description

This object represents a 1:1 mapping to a .desktop file. The design is such so you can't have different GsApp's for different versions or architectures of a package. This rule really only applies to GsApps of kind `AS_APP_KIND_DESKTOP` and `AS_APP_KIND_GENERIC`. We allow GsApps of kind `AS_APP_KIND_OS_UPDATE` or `AS_APP_KIND_GENERIC`, which don't correspond to desktop files, but instead represent a system update and its individual components.

The GsPluginLoader de-duplicates the GsApp instances that are produced by plugins to ensure that there is a single instance of GsApp for each id, making the id the primary key for this object. This ensures that actions triggered on a GsApp in different parts of gnome-software can be observed by connecting to signals on the GsApp.

Information about other GsApp objects can be stored in this object, for instance in the `gs_app_add_related()` method or `gs_app_get_history()`.

## Functions

### gs_app_new ()

    GsApp *
    gs_app_new (const gchar *id);

Creates a new application object.

The ID should only be set when the application ID (with optional prefix) is known; it is perfectly valid to use `gs_app_new()` with an `id` of `NULL`, and then relying on another plugin to set the `id` using `gs_app_set_id()` based on some other information.

For instance, a GsApp is created with no ID when returning results from the packagekit plugin, but with the default source name set as the package name. The source name is read by the appstream plugin, and if matched in the AppStream XML the correct ID is set, along with other higher quality data like the application icon and long description.

#### Parameters

id | an application ID, or `NULL`, e.g. "org.gnome.Software.desktop" |

#### Returns

a new GsApp

Since: 3.22

### gs_app_new_from_unique_id ()

    GsApp *
    gs_app_new_from_unique_id (const gchar *unique_id);

`gs_app_new_from_unique_id` is deprecated and should not be used in newly-written code.

Creates a new application object.

The unique ID will be parsed to set some information in the application such as the scope, bundle kind, id, etc. Unlike `gs_app_new()`, it cannot take a `NULL` argument.

#### Parameters

unique_id | an application unique ID, e.g. `system/flatpak/gnome/desktop/org.gnome.Software.desktop/master` |

#### Returns

a new GsApp

Since: 3.22

### gs_app_set_from_unique_id ()

    void
    gs_app_set_from_unique_id (GsApp *app,
                               const gchar *unique_id);

Sets details on an application object.

The unique ID will be parsed to set some information in the application such as the scope, bundle kind, id, etc.

#### Parameters

app | a GsApp |
unique_id | an application unique ID, e.g. `system/flatpak/gnome/desktop/org.gnome.Software.desktop/master` |

Since: 3.26

### gs_app_to_string ()
