- config layout -- need to apply defaults and annotate/document find out where to run aif-pre.sh (runs on host) (rename to aif-pre.script) and get a way to insert that and aif-post(.script) from the kernel params, etc. remember to uncomment the functions in main() when ready to test - use sgdisk? scripting (generated by python) for disk partitioning (part types listed at http://www.rodsbooks.com/gdisk/walkthrough.html ) -- actually, might want to use parted --script instead? then we can do percentages. https://www.gnu.org/software/parted/manual/parted.html https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/200582/scripteable-gpt-partitions-using-parted - add mkfs-ing - how to support mdadm, lvm? -support serverside "autoconfig"- a mechanism to let servers automatically generate xml build configs. e.g.: kernel ... aif_url="https://build.domain.tld/aif-ng.php" auto=yes would yield the *client* sending info via URL params, e.g. https://build.domain.tld/aif-ng.php?disk[]=sda&disk[]=sdb&disk[sda]=300GB&disk[sdb]=500GB ? something like that. parser: make sure to use https://mikeknoop.com/lxml-xxe-exploit/ fix left off at network config- i think i just have software/packages/etc. next, unless i already did that convert use of confobj or whatever to maybe be suitable to use webFetch instead. LOTS of duplicated code there. need to write docs make sure you call install.scripts or whatever it's called in main() docs: http://lxml.de/parsing.html https://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema.xsd http://lxml.de/validation.html#xmlschema https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3084155/custom-attributes-in-an-xsd-schema https://www.w3schools.com/xml/schema_intro.asp https://www.w3schools.com/xml/schema_example.asp https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd489258.aspx
