- 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.
- 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
