Last changes before version 1.2.7.
OCI manager Apps
- Multi-container applications start while one of their containers is
being backed up: the start hook waits until vzdump releases it and does
not start it twice. The DHCP client of a dependency no longer keeps the
lock of the hook, so later starts do not hang, and the watchdog waits
while a dependency is locked. Installing or updating ProxMenux replaces
the published copies of the hook already in place.
- Images built from scratch with a numeric user, such as ddns-updater,
install: the container is created from a copy of the image that adds
the /etc/passwd and /etc/group Proxmox VE needs, and the application
runs with the user the image declares. The downloaded image stays
unchanged. An image with a named user and no user database stops
before anything is created, with a message that says why.
Catalog
- Twelve new applications: MDBListarr, CrossWatch, Free Games Claimer
Remaster, Cloudreve, Poznote and AceStream HTTP Proxy, suggested in
discussion #440, and the Dockur images of Chrony, Dnsmasq, Tor,
Stunnel, strfry and Statping. The catalog lists 347 applications.
- Their prompts, labels and notes are translated into the seven
languages of the menus.
Documentation
- OCI manager: architecture, lifecycle and stacks pages revised, with
larger diagrams and new screenshots.
- Contributors: the page now thanks those developing, reviewing,
translating and testing ProxMenux today and those who helped in its
first steps, with new avatars.
Tests for the stack start hook, the watchdog, the user database check
of OCI images and the Tor installation summary.
- NUT Server (instantlinux/nut-upsd) runs the Network UPS Tools server for a UPS connected to the host by USB: the installation proposes the UPS the host detects, passes it to the container, generates the password of the upsmon user and starts with the host; clients such as PeaNUT connect on port 3493.
- A recipe can ask for the UPS of the host: without one, the installation stops and says so, and the advanced installation lets the node be typed by hand.
- The catalog lists 335 applications.
- Tests for the proposed UPS, a host without one and the recipe.
- "Install an image that is not in the catalog" also takes an oci-compose pasted in the terminal, next to reading it from a file or downloading it from an address.
- oci/README.md and the documentation page of the option describe the three ways, and the README links to the thread for suggesting applications (#440).
- oci/VALIDATION.md points to discussion #440 instead of the closed#360.
- The oci-compose tests pass on a host set to another language and without python3-jsonschema.
The image published by the Duplicati project joins the catalog next to the LinuxServer one.
Bitcoin Knots is hidden until its image closes the application cleanly when it stops; EmulatorJS and SickChill, until their images are published again.
feat(oci): offer access to a host directory that already exists
feat(oci): gather the file-sharing applications in Files & Sharing
fix(oci): ShareCoveX keeps its settings in a 1 GB volume, and the new translations are mended
Installed for real on a lab host through the default and the advanced
installation, with a host directory and a container volume to share, and
removed again. The recipe states what was exercised: clean install and
service health; the rest of its validation fields stay pending.
