In commands taking lists of packages, namely install, delete and pkg_files, don't bother asking the backend. Uniformly log a warning and return successfully.
Move the dependencies listed in BASE_PKGS from projcts-dir.mk and topdir.mk into project.conf.
Due to various hen-and-egg problems on a minimal system, in some situations these packages can't be installed from project.conf. The same is true with BASE_PKGS, however, so remove it, at least that does away with some redundancy.
Add support for --syntax to BaseCmdPkgRelations.pkg_relations(), and default to 'semver', i.e. the current state of affairs. If that's changed to 'debian', relations declared in project.conf as
Don't prefix JW_PKG_PY_PROJECTS with time -p. A timing summary shows up in too many places unexpectedly, e.g. in the context of the target update-text-files. Add back later as more concrete demand comes up.
Make pkg-install-testbuild-deps an alias for pkg-install-release-deps. At this point, they do nearly the same thing, and the distinction between what the implementations should do are blurry at best. This commit removes redundancy but keeps the use cases distinct. Different implementations can be reinstantiated should requirements for different implementations become clearer later on.
Maintainer scripts often mess with systemd services via systemctl. In Docker containers, chroot environments or other environments not governed by Systemd, systemctl will not exist or complain. This is a frequent use case, worthy of providing a wrapper to catch and ignore these cases conveniently.
should include all packages required by flavour devel, because during the release process, -devel and -run packages are both installed, and installing the -devel package is only possible if its dependencies are installed.
Remove the sections pkg.requires.ubuntu|raspbian from project.conf, because their contents is present in pkg.requires.debian and is already evaluated by Ubuntu and Raspbian builds.
Remove dependency inkscape: It's needed by svg-to-pixmap.mk, but not for building jw-pkg. If anything, -devel should depend on it, but that seems a little heavy handed and can be achieved by packages which know that they include svg-to-pixmap.mk.
Add dependency cpio: Needed by pkg.sh to copy a the source file tree. Will be removed again as soon as pkg.sh goes Python.
Add support for the -o (--owner) -g (--group) -m (--mode) options. They allow to specify a default for compiling templates, but _don't_ override what's in the #conf: specification line in .jw-tmpl or .jw-secret files.
Support option --all to jw-pkg.py secrets list-compilation-output and list-secrets (CmdListCompilationOutput & CmdSecrets). This allows them to also report non-existent files.
jw-pkg.py secrets [sub-command] [packages] is a set of utility commands designed to manage configuration files containing secrets.
To keep secrets from leaking via version control or packages, a _template_ should be packaged for every sensitive configuration file. Then, during post-install, configuration files can be generated from packaged templates via
Not specifying any packages will compile or remove all templates on the system.
To identify which files to consider and generate or remove, the compilation scans <package> for files ending in .jw-tmpl. For each match, e.g.
/path/to/some.conf.jw-tmpl
it will read key-value pairs from
/path/to/some.conf.jw-secret
and generate
/path/to/some.conf
from it, replacing all keys by their respective values. The file attributes of the generated file can be determined by the first line: of some.conf.jw-tmpl or some.conf.jw-secret:
# conf: owner=mysql; group=mysql; mode=0640
There are other commands for managing all secrets on the system at once, see jw-pkg.py secrets --help:
compile-templates Compile package template files
list-compilation-output
List package compilation output files
list-secrets List package secret files
list-templates List package template files
rm-compilation-output
Remove package compilation output files
DistroBase's option --id is now redundant to the new global option --distro-id in the App class, so remove --id. The only added value DistroBase then brings to the table is its .distro property, which can be provided by App just fine at this point, given that App has all it needs to construct a Distro object, so add .distro to App and remove the entire DistroBase class.
For convenience, also make App.distro available as a newly added cmds.Cmd.distro property. This also obviates the need for the distro-related properties in the .distro.Cmd class, remove all that.
Add the --verbose global option, which is made available as the App.verbose property.
Some functions still take a verbose parameter, but the type of these parameters is converted from bool to bool|None. The idea is that, if they are None, their verbosity falls back to the global default.
