Setup / Install

1. Install Poetry
2. Setup: poetry install
3. Have fun

Updating dependencies

Dependencies can be manipulated via the pyproject.toml file or with the poetry add/remove commands.

Changes to the poetry.lock should be commited if dependencies are added or updated.

TODO

Verbose mode should exist to output everything that's being called or ran.

There should be additional logging regardless, not just to stdout, but also to a file.

scripts

* sync_from_peridot    -> Syncs repositories from Peridot
* sync_sig             -> Syncs SIG repositories from Peridot
* build-iso            -> Builds initial ISO's using Lorax
* build-iso-extra      -> Builds DVD's and other images based on Lorax data
* launch-builds        -> Creates a kube config to run build-iso
* build-image          -> Runs build-iso

wrappers

* common               -> The starting point
* iso_utils            -> Does work for ISO building and generation
* dnf_utils            -> Does work for repo building and generation
* check                -> Checks if the architecture/release combination are valid
* shared               -> Shared utilities between all wrappers

rules

imports

When making a script, you must import common. This is insanely bad practice, but we would prefer if we started out this way:

import argparse
from empanadas.common import *
from empanadas.util import Checks

Whatever is imported in common will effectively be imported in your scripts as well, but there is nothing stopping you from defining them again, even out of habit. argparse is there because you better have a very, very good reason to not be writing scripts that are major version specific.

If you are writing something that could be arch specific based on the major version (which is likely), make sure to import the util module and use it arch checker appropriately. Small (but weak) example.

from util import Checks

rlvars = rldict['9']
r = Checks(rlvars, arch)
r.check_valid_arch()

script names and permissions

• Callable scripts should always end in .py and live in the empanadas/scripts folder
• Poetry will handle the installation of these executables with setuptools for distribution, and they can be invoked by name using poetry run script-name, too.
  • Configure the script and function to be executed in pyproject.toml (TODO: dynamically load scripts from this directory as well as standardize on the script input/outputs)
