O que é um applet?

Um applet é um conjunto de arquivos que descrevem o processo de instalação e inicialização de um aplicativo no Microsoft RDS via RemoteApp. Isso é necessário para que o FSafer inicie uma sessão de acesso a este aplicativo, efetue login automaticamente e oculte os parâmetros de autorização do usuário.

Applet Structure

Each applet must include the following files:

AppletName
  ├── i18n.yml
  ├── icon.png
  ├── main.py
  ├── manifest.yml
  └── setup.yml

main.py - script for launching and logging into the application

icon.png - applet icon

manifest.yml - metadata, i.e., applet description

setup.yml - file describing the installation process

i18n.yml - file for translation into various languages

File manifest.yml
