- add license file from libpwquality for provenance
- translate pwquality_strerror() into the PWSettingsHolder convenience class
- use Qt translations, since we'd otherwise also have to wire up, and
wire in, libpwquality gettext translations.
- Use shared_ptr and a helper class to hide away raw pointer use
from libpwquality. Provide a convenience C++ API.
- Simplify configuration through helper class.
- Issue asks to make the setting more visible, which seems sensible to
me. It **is** kind of hidden away for those distro's that make
the setting visible (not everyone does).
- While here, add a tooltip explaining what it does.
FIXES#893
Allow running one or more commands based on the value of
a global configuration variable. This could, of course,
be done in a Python module with some custom code,
but for simple cases this is more straightforward
to configure through module instances.
Uses the CommandList developed for the ShellProcess
module to do the actual work.
FIXES#874
- Move CommandList so it can be used from more modules than
just ShellProcess
- Allow a CommandList to run itself. This centralizes
code for executing one or more commands and simplifies
the ShellProcess module.
Various small cleanups:
- mention instance id in log message
- code formatting / style
- This turns off the space-available check in the welcome module;
without libparted, always fail that check.
- Allows running the welcome module on OS without libparted.
- Also allow a single string instead of a list
- Add count() method to CommandList
- Drop over-engineering, add more logging
- Expand tests with some more examples
This is basically dummyprocess, except with an expanded configuration
interface so you can run 1 or more shell commands in the live
or target system with a suitable configuration file and instance
of shellprocess in settings.conf.
It can replace downstream modules that implement their own
process modules with a command, by an instance of shellprocess.
Make a function out of explaining-skipped-modules, and call it
not only after collecting all the modules, but also after
the feature summary, so that it's quite clear which modules
are skipped.
Scenario is this: you have no suitable installation devices on
your system (everything is mounted, or HDD has died), click through
to partition page, where you have all the buttons available, but no
devices in the list. The following actions then cause a crash:
- clicking "back"
- clicking any button
Prevent that:
- you can click "back", but if there is no device selected
nothing happens to the device state (no nullptr deref,
and no crash)
- button code is now more resilient to this scenario
- buttons are hidden until a device is available, so you
can't even click on them to trigger the code.
Modules may be skipped for different reasons: SKIP_MODULES
is the traditional approach to suppress some, but other modules
may have unmet build requirements (e.g. Plasma Look-and-Feel,
or the Partitioning module) and should be able to opt-out
of being built. For all those skipped, log it explicitly after
all the modules have been examined.
Only CMake-based (e.g. C++) modules support opting-out in this way.
This is meant to run one or more jobs based on specific global
configuration values; if could also be done by a Python
module with just some if's, but this one can be used with
just the config file and covers a bunch of use-cases.
- calculate a hash of the filename, and use that
- makes it possible to distinguish different screenshots
even when the image file is missing / badly configured
- most colors will be dreadful
Patch by Gabriel C. (@abucodonosor).
- use libcalamares functions
- no need to copy /etc/adjtime over we can run hwclock in chroot
since we have /proc , /sys , /dev , /run/* already bind mounted.
- added RTC and ISA probing methode ( see issue #873)
- we probe default from /dev/rtc* ,
- fall back to ISA
- still doesn't work we just print a BIOS/Kernel BUG message and continue
- NOTE: issue #873 is about broken ArchLinux kernel config but there
are HP boxes with real RTC problems no matter what kernel config
is used so let us be nice and don't error out..
FIXES#873
- Implement various ways of getting the LNF; the process-based one
uses a recent CLI-tool from the Plasma developers.
- Fill the UI with (meaningless) LNF package IDs.
Do a better job determining what the arguments could mean; this supports
lazy devlopers who don't want to pass in full paths to all kinds of things.
Simple invocation can now be:
testmodule.py <modulename> - +
to read <modulename>.conf from src/modules/<modulename>/
This, kids, is why you don't switch writing C++ and Python too often.
The C++ code isn't a syntax error in Python, although this would fail
at runtime.
Update documentation, add a new key *skip_if_no_internet* to support
systems that **recommend** having an internet connection (but don't
require it), and which also use the packages module. This prevents
a long delay while the package manager tries to access the internet
and times out (repeatedly).
Existing configurations are unchanged.
Root is always selected, can't be unselected, and has its own explicit
constructor and name. This resolves issue reported where unchecking
all *visible* groups caused the root to be unchecked, after which
hidden-but-still-selected subgroups were not installed.
Reported by crazy@
Following KDE Pholio M116, switch to using a radio button; instead
of 4 individually toggle-able settings, use a "level" indicator
to select none, install, machine, user .. each of which implies
the previous levels. Each level is individually enable-able from
the distro side.
If a subgroup is hidden, then it should be considered
selected if its parent is selected or partially-selected.
If the parent group is totally unselected, then the hidden
subgroup shouldn't be installed either. This allows putting
required-packages into a group, without cluttering the
interface.
FIXES#864
While walking up the tree, only switch the selectedness states
of parents with children. This avoids the case where a parent
has a first subgroup that is hidden -- in which case the
parent ends up with no children, and is unselected even though
it is marked as selected in the config file.
FIXES#864
Each kind of tracking has an associated webpage / URL describing
the policy for that tracking. The Calamares User Guide has some
generic information. When the user clicks on the Help (?) button
in a tracking-option block, go to that URL.
- Enable translations, substitute ShortProductName into string,
- Simplify code for enabling tracking option blocks,
- Set checkboxes based on configuration,
- Read checkboxes when leaving page,
- Don't stretch the tracking option blocks.
- add icons for graphical display of actions
- extend description of tracking options
- add debug logging
- enable next button
- show/hide tracking options based on configuration
- m_groups is only set to a non-nullptr value when data is received
and fully processed,
- avoid nullptr dereference when paging *back* from a netinstall
page that hasn't loaded groups data.
FIXES#859
- Document netinstall.conf a little,
- Add setting *required* which influences whether next is enabled or not
in case of missing or corrupt data,
- Enable *next* button only once some (any!) data is received.
This can be used to disallow stepping past the netinstall step when
there is no data (e.g. internet has failed between the welcome page
and the netinstall page).
- Warn here since it may not be what the Distributor want.
Having wrong groups may result in broken permissions for
created user.
- explain what defaultGroups is for in users.conf
Welcome is only interested in checking partitions, not
in resizing them, so stick to one library. This will
become moot when the checks move to partitionmanager
and KPMCore can do the things.
- If there's no scripts involved in a package for netinstall, just
name it without the scripts; this lets the packages module
optimize to fewer package manager calls.
