- toml.dump() takes a file-like object
- toml.loads() takes a whole string to parse, (e.g. the TOML data),
not a pathname, so change to toml.load() which takes a file-like
object.
- If the config file doesn't exist, the dictionary is empty
- If it **does** exist, it might not have key 'default_session' in it
Either case should avoid a KeyError by using get() (or setdefault,
in this context). Subsequent use of os.path.exists() is strange,
since the value is a **group** (e.g. a dictionary) in the config
file. Just check if it exists, and then fill something in.
Apparently nobody ever hit the else-branch here (because
each DM has exactly one implementation -- that's what the
check is there for!) because the logging of the error
itself would raise IndexError or ValueError.
In 4ffa79d4cf, the spelling
was changed to consistently be "autoLoginUser" in the *users*
module, but that changed the Global Storage key as well,
and the *displaymanager* module wasn't changed to follow.
- point to main Calamares site in the 'part of' headers instead
of to github (this is the "this file is part of Calamares"
opening line for most files).
- remove boilerplate from all source files, CMake modules and completions,
this is the 3-paragraph summary of the GPL-3.0-or-later, which has
a meaning entirely covered by the SPDX tag.
- 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
- Improve documentation of the settings
- If sysconfigSetup is true, **only** setup sysconfig and ignore
the rest. This seems to be consistent with existing openSUSE-
derivative distro's, which set displaymanagers to something
nonsensical.
- if a default DE is configured but the executable doesn't exist,
believe the .desktop file. Then use that, and warn if the
whole thing can not be found.
- for a DE entry which has a bad executable setting,
update the entry from the .desktop file using TryExec.
This assumes that the TryExec command is actually something
you might want to run.
- Sessions can be X11-sessions (living in xsessions) or Wayland-
(living in wayland-sessions). Look in both places.
- Refactor code a little to make it nicer to read.
Fixed 'prepend' terminology in comments, restored old loop as it seems to work for me now in overwriting the file as one overall multiline instead of overwriting the file with each line at a time, code simplification based on review comments... credits-adding will come in the next commit.
This change fixes a few issues and adds a few improvements to the LightDM Autologin configuration process:
Fixes:
- Fixes malforming of configuration file out of the box, as without `[SeatDefaults]`, `[Seat:*]` or similar in the configuration file LightDM will break on a lot of distributions using LightDM
- Preserves the intended lightdm.conf file settings outside of `autologin-user` if the distribution has an /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf file of its own
Misc. changes:
- Small spelling fix
- If a distro provides an install-scenario that doesn't provide a DM,
(e.g. via netinstall) then that should be ok; if there **is** a DM
it should be configured.
FIXES: #1095
- The parameter list was wrong, and could never have worked
(apparently noone mixes LightDM with basic setup, even though
it's one of the few with basic_setup()).
- Shorten some lines.
