== The `build.ini` File
|
|
This file is where you can specify some of the very basics of BDisk building. It allows you to specify/define certain variables and settings used by the build process. It uses https://docs.python.org/3/library/configparser.html[ConfigParser^] for the parsing engine, and you can do some https://wiki.python.org/moin/ConfigParserExamples[more advanced^] things with it than I demonstrate in the default.
|
|
|
|
It's single-level, but divided into "sections". This is unfortunately a limitation of ConfigParser, but it should be easy enough to follow.
|
|
|
|
Blank lines are ignored, as well as any lines beginning with `#` and `;`. There are some restrictions and recommendations for some values, so be sure to note them when they occur. Variables referencing other values in the `build.ini` are allowed in the format of `${keyname}` if it's in the same section; otherwise, `${section:keyname}` can be used.
|
|
|
|
If you want to use your own `build.ini` file (and you should!), the following paths are searched in order. The first one found will be used.
|
|
|
|
* `/etc/bdisk/build.ini`
|
|
* `/usr/share/bdisk/build.ini`
|
|
* `/usr/share/bdisk/extra/build.ini`
|
|
* `/usr/share/docs/bdisk/build.ini`
|
|
* `/usr/local/etc/bdisk/build.ini`
|
|
* `/usr/local/share/docs/bdisk/build.ini`

=== `[bdisk]`
|
|
This section controls some basic branding and information having to do with the end product.
|
|
|
|
==== `name`
|
|
This value is a "basic" name of your project. It's not really shown anywhere end-user visible, but we need a consistent name that follows some highly constrained rules:
|
|
|
|
. Alphanumeric only
|
|
. 8 characters total (or less)
|
|
. No whitespace
|
|
. ASCII only
|
|
. Will be converted to uppercase if it isn't already
|
|
|
|
==== `uxname`
|
|
This value is used for filenames and the like. I highly recommend it be the same as `<<code_name_code,name>>` (in lowercase) but it doesn't need to be. It also has some rules:
|
|
|
|
. Alphanumeric only
|
|
. No whitespace
|
|
. ASCII only
|
|
. Will be converted to lowercase if it isn't already
|
|
|
|
==== `pname`
|
|
This string is used for "pretty-printing" of the project name; it should be a more human-readable string.
|
|
|
|
. *Can* contain whitespace
|
|
. *Can* be mixed-case, uppercase, or lowercase
|
|
. ASCII only
|
|
|
|
==== `ver`
|
|
The version string. If this isn't specified, we'll try to guess based on the current git commit and tags in `<<code_basedir_code,build:basedir>>`. If `<<code_basedir_code,build:basedir>>` is *not* a git repository (i.e. you installed BDisk from a package manager), you MUST specify a version number.
|
|
|
|
. No whitespace
|
|
|
|
==== `dev`
|
|
The name of the developer or publisher of the ISO, be it an individual or organization. For example, if you are using BDisk to build an install CD for your distro, this would be the name of your distro. The same rules as `<<code_pname_code,pname>>` apply.
|
|
|
|
. *Can* contain whitespace
|
|
. *Can* be mixed-case, uppercase, or lowercase
|
|
. ASCII only
|
|
|
|
==== `email`
|
|
An email address to use for git syncing messages, and/or GPG key generation.
|
|
|
|
==== `desc`
|
|
What this distribution/project is used for.
|
|
|
|
. *Can* contain whitespace
|
|
. *Can* be mixed-case, uppercase, or lowercase
|
|
. ASCII only
|
|
|
|
==== `uri`
|
|
What is this project's URI (website, etc.)? Alternatively, your personal site, your company's site, etc.
|
|
|
|
. Should be a valid URI understood by curl
|
|
|
|
|
|
==== `root_password`
|
|
The escaped, salted, hashed string to use for the root user.
|
|
|
|
Please see <<passwords,the section on passwords>> for information on this value. In the <<example,example above>>, the string `$$6$$t92Uvm1ETLocDb1D$$BvI0Sa6CSXxzIKBinIaJHb1gLJWheoXp7WzdideAJN46aChFu3hKg07QaIJNk4dfIJ2ry3tEfo3FRvstKWasg/` is created from the password `test`. I cannot stress this enough, do not use a plaintext password here nor just use a regular `/etc/shadow` file/`crypt(3)` hash here. Read the section. I promise it's short.
|
|
|
|
==== `user`
|
|
*Default: no*
|
|
|
|
This setting specifies if we should create a regular (non-root) user in the live environment. See the section <<code_user_code_2,`[user]`>> for more options.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: If enabled, this user has full sudo access.
|
|
|

|======================
|
|
|
|
=== `[user]`
|
|
This section of `build.ini` controls aspects about `bdisk:user`. It is only used if <<code_user_code,`bdisk:user`>> is enabled.
|
|
|
|
==== `username`
|
|
What username should the user have? Standard *nix username rules apply:
|
|
|
|
. ASCII only
|
|
. 32 characters or less
|
|
. Alphanumeric only
|
|
. Lowercase only
|
|
. No whitespace
|
|
. Cannot start with a number
|
|
|
|
==== `name`
|
|
What comment/description/real name should be used for the user? For more information on this, see the https://linux.die.net/man/5/passwd[passwd(5) man page^]'s section on *GECOS*.
|
|
|
|
. ASCII only
|
|
|
|
==== `groups`
|
|
What groups this user should be added to, comma-separated. They will be created if they don't exist yet. Standard *nix group names rules apply:
|
|
|
|
. ASCII only
|
|
. 32 characters or less
|
|
. Can only contain lower-case letters, numeric digits, underscores, or dashes (and can end with a dollar sign)
|
|
. Must start with a (lower-case) letter or underscore
|
|
. No whitespace
|
|
|
|
==== `password`
|
|
The escaped, salted, hashed string to use for the non-root user.
|
|
|
|
Please see <<passwords,the section on passwords>> for information on this value. In the <<example,example above>>, the string `$$6$$t92Uvm1ETLocDb1D$$BvI0Sa6CSXxzIKBinIaJHb1gLJWheoXp7WzdideAJN46aChFu3hKg07QaIJNk4dfIJ2ry3tEfo3FRvstKWasg/` is created from the password `test`. I cannot stress this enough, do not use a plaintext password here nor just use a regular `/etc/shadow` file/`crypt(3)` hash here. Read the section. I promise it's short.
|
|
|
|
=== `[source_<arch>]`
|
|
This section controls where to fetch the "base" tarballs.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Previously, these settings were *not* architecture-specific, and included in the <<code_build_code,`build`>> section.
|
|
|
|
It was necessary to create this section per architecture, because https://www.archlinux.org/news/phasing-out-i686-support/[Arch Linux has dropped i686 support^]. However, plenty of other distros also have removed support and other third-party projects have ported. (You can find the Arch Linux 32-bit/i686 port project http://archlinux32.org/[here^].)
|
|
|
|
The directives here are only covered once, however, since both sections are identical- they just allow you to specify different mirrors. Note that the two settings are `[source_i686]` (for 32-bit) and `[source_x86_64]` (for 64-bit/multilib).
|
|
|
|
Which section is used (or both) depends on what <<code_multiarch_code, architectures you have enabled>> for the build.
|
|
|
|
==== `mirror`
|
|
A mirror that hosts the bootstrap tarball. It is *highly* recommended you use an Arch Linux https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Install_from_existing_Linux#Method_A:_Using_the_bootstrap_image_.28recommended.29[bootstrap tarball^] as the build process is highly specialized to this (but <<bug_reports_feature_requests,patches/feature requests>> are welcome for other built distros). You can find a list of mirrors at the bottom of Arch's https://www.archlinux.org/download/[download page^].
|
|
|
|
. No whitespace
|
|
. Must be accessible remotely/via a WAN-recognized address
|
|
. Must be a domain/FQDN (or IP address) only; no paths (those come later!)
|
|
|
|
==== `mirrorproto`
|
|
What protocol should we use for the <<code_mirror_code,`mirror`>>?
|
|
|
|
|======================
|
|
^s|Must be (case-insensitive) one of: ^.^m|http ^.^m|https ^.^m|ftp
|
|
|======================
|
|
|
|
==== `mirrorpath`
|
|
What is the path to the tarball directory on the <<code_mirror_code,`mirror`>>?
|
|
|
|
. Must be a complete path (e.g. `/dir1/subdir1/subdir2`)
|
|
. No whitespace
|
|
|
|
==== `mirrorfile`
|
|
What is the filename for the tarball found in the path specified in <<code_mirrorpath_code,`mirrorpath`>> ? If left blank, we will use the hash <<code_mirrorchksum_code,checksum>> file to try to guess the most recent file.
|
|
|
|
==== `mirrorchksum`
|
|
*[optional]* +
|
|
*default: (no hash checking done)* +
|
|
*requires: <<code_chksumtype_code,`chksumtype`>>*
|
|
|
|
The path to a checksum file of the bootstrap tarball.
|
|
|
|
. No whitespace
|
|
. Must be the full path
|
|
. Don't include the <<code_mirror_code,mirror domain>> or <<code_mirrorproto_code,protocol>>
|
|
|
|
==== `chksumtype`
|
|
The algorithm that <<code_mirrorchksum_code,`mirrorchksum`>>'s hashes are in.

TIP: You may have support for additional hashing algorithms, but these are the ones gauranteed to be supported by Python's https://docs.python.org/3/library/hashlib.html[hashlib module^]. To get a full list of algorithms the computer you're building on supports, you can run `python3 -c 'import hashlib;print(hashlib.algorithms_available)'`. Most likely, however, <<code_mirrorchksum_code,`mirrorchksum`>> is going to be hashes of one of the above.
|
|
|
|
==== `mirrorgpgsig`
|
|
*[optional]* +
|
|
*default: (no GPG checking done)* +
|
|
*requires: <<optional,_gpg/gnupg_>>* +
|
|
*requires: <<code_gpgkey_code,`gpgkey`>>*
|
|
|
|
If the bootstrap tarball file has a GPG signature, we can use it for extra checking. If it's blank, GPG checking will be disabled.
|
|
|
|
If you specify just `.sig` (or use the default and don't specify a <<code_mirrorfile_code,`mirrorfile`>>), BDisk will try to guess based on the file from the hash <<code_mirrorchksum_code,checksum>> file. Note that unless you're using the `.sig` "autodetection", this must evaluate to a full URL. (e.g. `${mirrorproto}://${mirror}${mirrorpath}somefile.sig`)
|
|
|
|
==== `gpgkey`
|
|
*requires: <<optional,_gpg/gnupg_>>*
|
|
|
|
What is a key ID that should be used to verify/validate the <<code_mirrorgpgsig_code,`mirrorgpgsig`>>?
|
|
|
|
. Only used if <<code_mirrorgpgsig_code,`mirrorgpgsig`>> is set
|
|
. Can be in "short" form (e.g. _7F2D434B9741E8AC_) or "full" form (_4AA4767BBC9C4B1D18AE28B77F2D434B9741E8AC_), with or without the _0x_ prefix.
|
|
|
|
==== `gpgkeyserver`
|
|
*default: blank (GNUPG-bundled keyservers)* +
|
|
*requires: <<optional,_gpg/gnupg_>>*
|
|
|
|
What is a valid keyserver we should use to fetch <<code_gpgkey_code,`gpgkey`>>?
|
|
|
|
. Only used if <<code_mirrorgpgsig_code,`mirrorgpgsig`>> is set
|
|
. The default (blank) is probably fine. If you don't specify a personal GPG config, then you'll most likely want to leave this blank.
|
|
. If set, make sure it is a valid keyserver URI (e.g. `hkp://keys.gnupg.net`)

|
==== `http`
|
|
*default: no*
