- Uses global storage to steer the jobs that are created, in case
the slideshow needs to be tweaked by percentages or whatever.
- While here, add some code docs and apply coding style.
- When loading QML V2, both loadQmlV2Complete() and changeSlideShowState()
lock the same mutex, introduced in e7f4479df1.
- Explicitly unlock when loading is done and we need to change the state
immediately.
- For testing purposes, it's useful to load a module externally
and then register it to the ModuleManager (this hands off ownership).
- Refactor overall module loading to use the exposed single-module method.
- QML files need to be searched in specific places; this was initialized
by Calamares, but not for the text application. Move initialization
into the library.

- The -s will run the slideshow with a bogus job-queue, allowing easier
testing of the slideshow. This is more convenient than having a Calamares
with an empty show and a bogus exec section.
- The -s option for running the slideshow / execution phase of
Calamares needs to create a bogus Module for the ExecutionViewStep.
- Previously, unless setDefaultFontSize() was called explicitly,
the default size would be 0, leading to unexpected and weird
displays (and a warning on stderr).
- If setDefaultFontSize() is not called, get a sensible size instead
(like defaultFontHeight() was already trying to do).
- When loading *view* modules, we always need a QApplication for GUI
bits, because the widget for a module is created is very early.
- If it's a view module, replace the application object with one
that supports GUIs; without the --ui flag, though, it will just
run the jobs.
- All the configuration lives in the Config object (or the
tracking objects that it exposes).
- Get data from the config object for the jobs; TODO: give the
jobs a less-clunky interface.
The UI isn't hooked up to the Config object yet, though.
- a single tracking type can be enabled for configuration in the
config file; each must have a policy URL. Class TrackingStyleConfig
is a base class for that kind of configuration.
- root_mount_point was used initially for logging c1a139995 (adding new
bootloader job options are to use grub for BIOS, gummiboot for efi set
extra mountpoint when efi is found)
- the trace was removed since 533031b3c ([bootloader] print() does not
log)
- The Python configuration tests sometimes need extra setup, so
do that through a CMakeTests.txt file in the test directory.
- Patch up existing tests:
- grubcfg needs /tmp/calamares/etc/default to exist
- rawfs won't work on FreeBSD because of differences in /proc
- drop the *discard* from filesystems-on-SSD in the standard example
configuration.
- keep the table **with** *discard* around for referece and explanation.
Remember that the example configurations are intended as **examples**,
to document available settings, and do not reflect a sensible
production configuration.
FIXES#1395
clean up obsolete lines in welcomeq.qml
add requirement section from welcome.conf to welcomeq.conf
data shows correctly in Recommended.qml, fails to show any in Requirements.qml if run without admin rights
This makes it possible to remove QML from Calamares, possibly yielding
a smaller, lighter installer; it takes with it the nice slideshow,
modern configurable navigation and the QML UIs built for various modules.
By default, WITH_QML is on and the "normal" feature set is retained.
- look for Qml modules only when WITH_QML is on (the default)
- look for Network, since that's pulled in only implicitly
- disable the QML Calamares models (modules/*q) if no QML is
enabled; longer-term plan is to merge the **pages** back to
the "upstream" modules, and have things be run-time switchable,
but that's not here yet. Also disable the notesqml module when
QML is off.
- reminder to make all the ABI-relevant WITH_* settings available as #defines
- move the compilation of KDSAG to the calamares executable, not the library
- when DBus activation is on, drop all of kdsingleapplicationguard
- It is the requirements model (checking) that reports progress, and now
the model is accessible (ask for it with requirementsModel(), make the
messages come from there.
- The architecture of letting someone build up a list of requirements
from data emitted by the ModuleManager is broken: if it gets loaded
later, it will miss data; passing around complicated objects is
no fun anyway. Get rid of it, on the way to "ModuleManager has
its own model of requirements".
- Give the ModuleManager a RequirementsModel -- that is the source
of truth about the module-requirements of the modules managed
by that particular ModuleManager.
- Let the RequirementsChecker operate on a given RequirementsModel.
- The requirements are collected by ModuleManager, checked
by an internal RequirementsChecker and changes to the
requirements state are all signalled from ModuleManager.
By connecting the requirements in the welcome modules' Config
only to their own configs -- and immediately checking them,
which is bad on its own -- we end up with a disconnect between
what the ModuleManager says about requirements, and what
the welcome modules report on.
Doesn't compile (but I need to get it off this machine)
- Prepare to implement a picture-based slideshow alongside QML
- Split QML loading into the slideshow component
This might be good prep-work for moving QML loading out of the QMLViewStep as well.
fully implemented:
* loading of a live map, ESRI based, zooming & dragging possible
* IP address is translated to map coordinates
* loading of the map centers to the obtained coordinates, with a marker set
* coordinates are translated to a timezone, label visible at bottom of the map
* mouse movement will show changing coordinates
* clicking on new location will center map there, marker moved too, timezone label adjusted
* hasInternet switch set to either load Map.qml or Offline.qml
not done:
* get hasInternet status
* fill the fine-tune 181n.qml with proper locale & language data
* connect the obtained timezone to globalstorage
comments are left in the various files for what needs attention/changes
Improve testing framework while adding tests to rawfs to double-
check that the conversion (for Python 3.3 compatibility) of
capture_output is correct.
- If a module has tests/#.global or tests/#.job, these are used
as arguments to a test-run of loadmodule (which reads them
and runs the module with that configuration).
- This makes the old python-loading test and test-runner entirely
obsolete, so remove them too.
- By default, try to use DBus service to keep Calamares unique
- The older implementation via KDSingleApplicationGuard is still
available, just not used by default.
- Calamares doesn't like to run multiple instances, since they would
interfere with each other (stealing disks from each other, for instance).
The single-application code tries to prevent that.
- For -d runs, for developers where presumably they know what they are
doing, the single-application restriction is annoying: especially if
you need two instances at once for some kind of visual comparison.
Drop the single-app requirement if -d is given.
- If the QML navigation panel sets a height, use that
- If it doesn't, use 48px (which *may* make sense, but like many
screen dimensions in Calamares doesn't take HiDPI into account)
- Give the demo QML an explicit height of 48
- This code has existed for a long time but never stored anything
to the Branding object, and the most literal slideshow (just some
images) was not implemented.
Region "Africa" zones # 52
14:25:19 [6]: .. Zone "Asmara" QPoint(445,183)
14:25:19 [6]: .. First zone found 2 "2.0"
14:25:19 [6]: .. Also in zone 3 "3.0"
- All failures were being reported as Timeout, which is confusing
when they are not. Introduce HttpError for the not-timeout
other kinds of errors.
- Add operator<< for RequestStatus for nicer error logging.
- The Config object can handle GeoIP loading on its own. Both
View steps that used this had a derpy view->setCountry() that
didn't really do anything with the view anymore.
- This forces the EFI firmware to boot the loader that was just
created, whatever the boot order set in the firmware setup (USB,
CD/DVD, HD...).
- It is safe to use the first Boot Entry listed in BootOrder as the
previous command creates the new entry and adds it to the first place
of the BootOrder.
- This is a good example of being overly clever in C++
- the whole API with an enum requesting a specific string is a bit weird,
although it makes sense from the 'might need more strings specified'
point of view.
- sometimes if you use external OEM modules you might have those lines already present
- by skipping them you won't have double lines when rerun the module in a later step
Merge in the documentation from Bill Auger and then implement
what it documents (this had been missing; productWallpaper was
an orphan setting).
FIXES#1380
- If we have a wallpaper, bung in an extra QWidget between the main
window and the panels (sidebar, nav and main) where we set a
stylesheet that displays the chosen image.
- things that can be done in the designer file should be there,
not weirdly repeated in code elsewhere
- drop the insertion of an extra spacer (why not include it in the
designer file?)
- shuffle all the connect() calls down to the end of the constructor
This commit adds the new configuration `efiSystemPartitionName` to the
file partition.conf.
This option sets the partition name to the EFI System Partition that is
created. If this option is unset, the partition is left unnamed.
- Use << Logger::NoQuote{} to turn off quoting **and** the space
- In practice, in Calamares we use this only around other processes'
output, where we want neither quotes nor spaces.
- the test checks that the default locale is C or en_US .. let's just
make it so instead of relying on the environment. This fixes tests
on my dev-laptop, which happens to be set to en_NL (with volapuk
date format).
- Although we long ago replaced the getPartitions implementation, the
test is still there, and on a machine with no /dev/sda (e.g. because
root is on nvme) the echo-awk-shell-pipeline can give an empty string;
this is turned into a QStringList{""} which has one element, while
the new version has 0 elements.
- Special-case the test that empty strings should be empty lists, rather
than 1-element lists with an empty element.
reads data from languagesModel correctly, debug added to see index changes
code cleanup
button layout improved
install info text added, better spacing of text
about button no longer commented out, 3 reasons:
- info provided by any about is standard, will be odd if it can't be found
- about.qml is a seperate file, can be completely adjusted
- not showing it takes away the options for new QML cala users to see what is possible with Loader, thus stopping new possible contributors
- This is a follow-up to d0c205c1cc6a2ae49935c92bfd52911b9a0d43f7;
I really don't know why static constexpr const elements that are
not referenced by address need to be defined separately.
- rename enlarge to ensureSize() and change the meaning from
"make this much bigger" to "make sure this is displayed",
which is easier on the caller to calculate.
- the navigation bar was set "too tall", leave it at the natural
layout height for this widget
- margins needed some massaging to give contents some more space
(contents has a margin, so it doesn't need more space above
the navigation bar)
- This isn't something that Calamares can acutally fix,
so the test will be disabled later. After all, if
Brazzaville and Kinshasa are close enough that on the
map they are the same pixel, we can't move the cities.
- Merge all the format documentation into netinstall.conf,
where the example is given in full as an embedded
*groups* entry.
- Get README.md to point to the example.
- Fix up headers in netinstall.yaml, pointing to the
embedded example in netinstall.conf.
Timezones updated for these countries found on pixel detection tool
Dublin is in 0 (-1 needs editing)
Gibraltar should be 1.0 (0 needs editing)
Guernsey and Jersey are in 0 (1.0 needs editing)
Lisbon is in 0 (-1 needs editing)
Vilnius should be in 2 (1 needs editing)
- QImage needs Qt5::Gui, so this isn't a guiless-test; it can use
the offscreen QPA, though.
- Check that the images are all the same size
- Debugging / check code removed from timezonewidget
- The idea is to check all the TZ images for consistency, like
TimeZoneWidget::setCurrentLocation() does when DEBUG_TIMEZONES is
on; a zone-pixel should be set in only **one** image.
The test so far is just a stub.
- Make all four DEBUG_ flags actual CMake options, rather than
stuffing some of them in the rather-peculiar _enable_debug_flags.
Each debug option turns on suitable compile flags in the module(s)
that are affected.
- When writing YAML, given a float **always** write
some decimal digits (e.g. "1.0" rather than "1")
so that the type of the written-out thing stays
float.
- Avoids test failure with the sample `welcome.conf`
file which reads 1.0 and would write out 1, which then
led to type differences.
- Handle qlonglong explicitly
- Add a fallbackfor things that convert to qulonglong, to
avoid these remaining integer types from hitting the
very end of the if-chain, and being written out as
the **string** "<typename>"
When one of these common names for the netinstall page is used,
it gets pulled out of the standard translations, so that it
doesn't have to be translated in the per-distro config file.
These labels are common enough that they make sense for
everyone to have lying around.
FIXES#1367
(I say "fixed" but of course it's going to depend on the translation
workflow to make these available)
- In production, cDebug() might not show up, so the log will not
contain the lines saying what program is being run;
- Errors should at least mention the program name, but "env" or
"chroot" is not useful, so pull that from *args*, which is
the command we actually want to run.
- an empty command isn't going to work (although it might successfully
run chroot or env in the target system, that's not useful)
- while here, move variable declarations closer to their use.
- Slice overall progress into chunks, with each chunk of equal size
(as long as we have no overall count information) and place
the progress of the current chunk into its own slice.
- The entry knows where it should be mounted, and can remember that
- mount_entry() didn't use self, so made no sense as a method
of the Operation class
probably due to dynamically loading items
regionModel now lists, zonesModel only lists one delegate, but
working on QML modules can now continue without crashing cala
This doesn't actually **work** though, the QML uses older Calamares-internal
APIs and uses a ResponsiveBase that we don't have. Merge it mostly for
the Config and model changes.
FIXES#1355
- Add some extra checks for validity of m_currentStep (an index)
- Start off with explicitly invalid index, and keep it so until
loading is complete; this prevents the situation where quit-at-end
gets triggered after loading the very first module.
- io.calamares.modules doesn't exist
- ResponsiveBase doesn't exist
The module is now non-functional, but at least it loads and renders
a list of regions and zones.
- name default / example QML conventionally
- copy QRC from keyboard -- the QML needs to be included in the QRC --
since we don't want to have the QML in the keyboard module.
- follow branding settings, taking the panel-sides into account
- drop fixed width and height for QML parts
- give panels a minimum appropriate-dimension if they don't have one
This allows, for instance, putting both Widget sidebar and QML navigation
on the left-hand side of the window.
- Introduce an enum for panel-side
- Expose this to QML -- I can imagine that QML panels need to know
which side of the Calamares window they're on.
- Refactor loading the setting into a method that handles both
flavor and side
- There's no real reason to force the sidebar left and nav at the bottom,
certainly with QML supporting more layouts and being more flexible,
so document a mechanism to place the sidebar and navigation along
"edges" of the Calamares window.
- With an empty list, the question is meaningless
- .. and we called this with an empty list while constructing the
ViewManager; if quit-at-end is true, then this would terminate
Calamares immediately because the list was at the end.
- put signals in conventional place
- remove const int& parameter, that can just be int
- drop oddly-guarded code (that leaks memory); if the index (row)
being passed in, it's probably best to just crash
- remove unused signal warningMessageChanged
- Now the back button should be done by clients as well
- Refactor in CalamaresWindow to avoid leaking local button pointers
to surrounding code.
- Add macro UPDATE_BUTTON_PROPERTY for convenience in ViewManager
(ugh, macro) to change a value and emit corresponding update signal.
- add properties for the next button (enabled, label, icon...)
- update those properties as normal
- connect to the properties in the UI implementation
using Loader, can be reused for other widgets conversion
leave onClick example with full path, commneted out
title text for About is hardcoded, discuss option to make this configurable in welcome.conf
background color hardcoded, tested to work well in dark themes too
- since we've got two blocks of code copy-pasted, which both
decide to call one or the other of two member functions based
on a flavor value, turn that into a templated function.
- passing member functions looks a bit weird, and calling them
is syntactically surprising, but it cuts down the code a lot.
- the checker only collects and calls requirements; it has no
UI component, and only manages data (and a thread to do the
checking). Move it out of the UI library.
- this function lives in Module -- and is the only thing typing
Module to the ViewSteps and JobTypes. Split it out into its
own funciton. Nothing else in Module needs to befriend the
ViewSteps, so we move the friend declaration around a bit
as well.
- while here, apply coding style.
This is prep-work for moving module to libcalamares.
- drop the current and completed roles, and expose only
the currentIndex. QML can use the QObject property on
the model, while QWidgets can call internally through
the model's data() function.
- we don't need to provide role names for this, so drop that bit.
- simplify the delegate code while here.
- Groups inherit slightly differently: if a subgroup **explicitly**
configures criticalness, use that. It would be weird, but possibly,
to have a non-critical subgroup of a critical group.
- An unselected group with (some) selected subgroups was not
displayed as (semi)checked -- it was unchecked, because
its checked-ness was not updated based on the children.
- the `parent` when installing a translator was not used, so drop it
from the API. Chase some uses of the API, but leave welcome-modules
broken: there's a merge of those coming.
- isEfi only used meaningfully once
- if (isEfi) followed by if (!isEfi) can be simpler
- create bios-but-not-GPT strings in one go
- mark TODO that this should warn only if needed
- use weird * notation for branding-strings
- In some cases, it makes sense to close Calamares automatically
when it is done. Set *quit-at-end* to do so -- although this
probably also means you should remove the *finished* page.
- It's annoying to have 100% progress reported (from the processing
of list items) and then have another 3 seconds delay.
Unrelated to the issue-at-hand, but spotted in testing.
- while the queue is executing (the thread is running jobs) the
isRunning() method returns true.
- re-work some internals to reset isRunning() before emitting
finished() signal.
- Instead of loading all in the constructor, provide a public
setupModelData().
- This allows creating the model and setting it for UI, before
the load completes.
- Add initial definition of Config object, which will extract the model-
setting and loading code from the page, and which is also prep-work
for a QML version of this module.
- While here, remove superfluous code
- For a static list of selectable packages (e.g. what you might otherwise
use file:/// for with a static file on the ISO) you can now stick the
list in the config file itself, simplifying some setups.
- Also saves faffing about with network.
SEE #1319
- `local` is supposed to read from the config-file, rather than
externally; this simplifies examples, makes it easier to have
multiple netinstalls, and condenses the documentation.
- Check groups
- Check whole treemodels recursively (this is not in PackageTreeItem,
because that explicitly ignores the tree structure).
- Also a stub of checking example files (from the src dir)
- Just some simple tests for the Items
- Test creation of package group from variant
- This needs Qt5::Gui to link because QStandardItem is a GUI class,
although we can run the tests without a GUI.
- This doesn't compile right now.
- The nested class ItemData doesn't do anything useful or
meaningful that having model items with the right data wouldn't.
- If we're converting a YAML map to a QVariant (Map), may as well
express that in the types. This makes the return from, say,
`yamlMapToVariant()` cheaper, but incurs conversion in
`yamlToVariant()` .. previously the place for costs was
swapped around.
- For those cases that want-and-expect a Map, or List, this makes
the calls slightly cheaper. For the generic case, the costs move
around internally.
Pull in the instance-weight changes and type-improvements,
but not the part where special-casing of unsquash is dropped:
weights are still per-job, not per-module.
- can't convert lambda-with-captures to a function pointer (Clang 9)
- instead, use a context property .. QmlViewStep already sets a
"config" property with the Config object, but WelcomeQ wants it
as another name as well.
- this avoids registering the Welcome object across all QML pages,
as well.
NOTE: needs to have the QML adjusted for this change.
- Replace a map-of-strings with a class type.
- For now, doesn't compile.
- Intention is to construct from a YAML / QVariant from the
*instances* list in `settings.conf`.
