[Libguestfs] [PATCH v7 9/9] Add a virt-builder-repository tool

virt-builder-repository allows users to easily create or update a virt-builder source repository out of disk images. The tool can be run in either interactive or automated mode. --- .gitignore | 3 + builder/Makefile.am | 84 +++++- builder/repository_main.ml | 584 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ builder/test-docs.sh | 2 + builder/virt-builder-repository.pod | 213 +++++++++++++ 5 files changed, 883 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) create mode 100644 builder/repository_main.ml create mode 100644 builder/virt-builder-repository.pod diff --git a/.gitignore b/.gitignore index b9e00ee04..ca0baff64 100644 --- a/.gitignore +++ b/.gitignore @@ -96,13 +96,16 @@ Makefile.in /builder/oUnit-* /builder/*.qcow2 /builder/stamp-virt-builder.pod +/builder/stamp-virt-builder-repository.pod /builder/stamp-virt-index-validate.pod /builder/test-config/virt-builder/repos.d/test-index.conf /builder/test-console-*.sh /builder/test-simplestreams/virt-builder/repos.d/cirros.conf /builder/test-website/virt-builder/repos.d/libguestfs.conf /builder/virt-builder +/builder/virt-builder-repository /builder/virt-builder.1 +/builder/virt-builder-repository.1 /builder/virt-index-validate /builder/virt-index-validate.1 /builder/*.xz diff --git a/builder/Makefile.am b/builder/Makefile.am index bf4ccb7d7..df09c3f3d 100644 --- a/builder/Makefile.am +++ b/builder/Makefile.am @@ -21,6 +21,8 @@ AM_YFLAGS = -d EXTRA_DIST = \ $(SOURCES_MLI) $(SOURCES_ML) $(SOURCES_C) \ + $(REPOSITORY_SOURCES_ML) \ + $(REPOSITORY_SOURCES_MLI) \ libguestfs.gpg \ opensuse.gpg \ test-console.sh \ @@ -38,6 +40,7 @@ EXTRA_DIST = \ test-virt-index-validate-good-2 \ test-virt-index-validate-good-3 \ virt-builder.pod \ + virt-builder-repository.pod \ virt-index-validate.pod \ yajl_tests.ml @@ -85,13 +88,44 @@ SOURCES_C = \ setlocale-c.c \ yajl-c.c +REPOSITORY_SOURCES_ML = \ + utils.ml \ + index.ml \ + cache.ml \ + downloader.ml \ + sigchecker.ml \ + ini_reader.ml \ + index_parser.ml \ + yajl.ml \ + paths.ml \ + sources.ml \ + repository_main.ml + +REPOSITORY_SOURCES_MLI = \ + cache.mli \ + downloader.mli \ + index.mli \ + index_parser.mli \ + ini_reader.mli \ + sigchecker.mli \ + sources.mli \ + yajl.mli + +REPOSITORY_SOURCES_C = \ + index-scan.c \ + index-struct.c \ + index-parse.c \ + index-parser-c.c \ + yajl-c.c + + man_MANS = noinst_DATA = bin_PROGRAMS = if HAVE_OCAML -bin_PROGRAMS += virt-builder +bin_PROGRAMS += virt-builder virt-builder-repository virt_builder_SOURCES = $(SOURCES_C) virt_builder_CPPFLAGS = \ @@ -101,8 +135,7 @@ virt_builder_CPPFLAGS = \ -I$(shell $(OCAMLC) -where) \ -I$(top_srcdir)/gnulib/lib \ -I$(top_srcdir)/common/utils \ -

It can +be configured to use template repositories. However creating and +maintaining a repository involves many tasks which can be automated. +virt-builder-repository is a tool helping to manage these repositories. + +Virt-builder-repository loops over the files in the directory specified +as argument, compresses the files with a name ending by C<qcow2>, C<raw>, +C<img> or without extension, extracts data from them and creates or +updates the C<index> file. + +Some of the image-related data needed for the index file can't be +computed from the image file. virt-builder-repository first tries to +find them in the existing index file. If data are still missing after +this, they are prompted in interactive mode, otherwise an error will +be triggered. + +If a C<KEYID> is provided, the generated index file will be signed +with this GPG key. + +=head1 EXAMPLES + +=head2 Create the initial repository + +Create a folder and copy the disk image template files in it. Then +run a command like the following one: + + virt-builder-repository --gpg-key &quot;joe(a)hacker.org&quot; -i /path/to/folder + +Note that this example command runs in interactive mode. To run in +automated mode, a minimal index file needs to be created before running +the command containing sections like this one: + + [template_id] + file=template_filename.qcow.xz + +The file value needs to match the image name extended with the ".xz" +suffix if the C<--no-compression> parameter is not provided or the +image name if no compression is involved. Other optional data can be +prefilled. Default values are computed by inspecting the disk image. +For more informations, see +L<virt-builder(1)/Creating and signing the index file>. + +=head2 Update images in an existing repository + +In this use case, an new image or a new revision of an existing image +needs to be added to the repository. Place the corresponding image +template files in the repository folder. + +To update the revision of an image, the file needs to have the same +name than the existing one (without the C<xz> extension). + +As in the repository creation use case, a minimal fragment can be +added to the index file for the automated mode. This can be done +on the signed index even if it may sound a strange idea: the index +will be signed again by the tool. + +To remove an image from the repository, just remove the corresponding +compressed image file before running virt-builder-repository. + +Then running the following command will complete and update the index +file: + + virt-builder-repository --gpg-key &quot;joe(a)hacker.org&quot; -i /path/to/folder + +virt-builder-repository works in a temporary folder inside the repository +one. If anything wrong happens when running the tool, the repository is +left untouched. + +=head1 OPTIONS + +=over 4 + +=item B<--help> + +Display help. + +=item B<--gpg> GPG + +Specify an alternate L<gpg(1)> (GNU Privacy Guard) binary. You can +also use this to add gpg parameters, for example to specify an +alternate home directory: + + virt-builder-repository --gpg "gpg --homedir /tmp" [...] + +This can also be used to avoid gpg asking for the key passphrase: + + virt-builder-repository --gpg "gpg --passphrase-file /tmp/pass --batch" [...] + +=item B<-K> KEYID + +=item B<--gpg-key> KEYID + +Specify the GPG key to be used to sign the repository index file. +If not provided, the index will left unsigned.
