- For both shellprocess and contextualprocess, add a top-level key
"timeout" that defaults to 10 seconds (which it already did).
- Allows setting "global" timeout for command-lists, while still
allowing individual timeouts per-command.
- Setting timeout per global variable in contextualprocess is not
supported; that would restrict the possible space of comparisions,
while not supporting a global setting timeout seems reasonable enough.
Use instances if you need wildly variable timeouts and don't want to
set them individually.
- 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.
