    If flatpak is not an option, then you need to specify what packaging platforms are applicable.

        It’s up to the distro maintainers to package it for the distros. Not the software developer. I see it’s available in the AUR, so it’s not only available as a flatpak. So ascii.-draw does fit your criteria.

        You can also build it yourself if you know how (they list the use of gnome-builder for this).

    The AUR PKGBUILD shows a pretty simple recipe:

    build() {
  arch-meson "${pkgname}-${pkgver//+/-}" build
  meson compile -C build
}

package() {
  meson install -C build --destdir "${pkgdir}"
  # permission fix
  chmod 755 "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/ascii-draw"
}

    I’ve been seeing arch-meson often used, but haven’t explored what it does. Some day…

    Though it’s way more fun to use text specification, like the one referenced by @fratermus@lemmy.sdf.org

    I’m not sure why you wouldn’t want the ASCII-Draw flatpak, but that’s not the only way to get it:

    • there’s a Snap
    • it can be installed from source
    • there’s also an AUR package

    But maybe you’re not on Arch, don’t like Snaps (can’t blame anyone for that) and don’t want to install from source (same)? What type of package are you looking for? Only native package? For which distro?

      Ideally running the .py python foobar.py will be ideal, otherwise an .appimage

      I think I will have to build it my self (the .appimage ) :)

    This sent me down a rabbit hole since it’s something I’ve half-considering for a while. I prefer text configuration rather than GUI so I ended up installing graph-easy on my debian laptop:

    sudo apt install libgraph-easy-perl

    and made a first attempt to diagram the power setup in my campervan

    It’s a perl module but the graph-easy wrapper makes it behave like any other CLI tool. cat or echo the config text to the wrapper and the graph pops out on STDOUT

    I don’t have an answer for you, I’d never heard of ASCIIFlow, but holy shit that takes me back to an oooold piece of DOS software called FormTool. Used to make dungeon maps and character sheets and such with it back in the early 90s. Good times.

    You might be interested in Emacs, it has (among many other things) artist-mode where you can draw with your cursor and obtain good ASCII art
