This is a first attempt to add a new function for URL parsing, using
go's net/url package and the simple API. This is still a barebones
implementation, there's possibility to expose more information. It also
includes simple tests.
It would be a likely mistake to create a self-referential frag, and mgmt
would spin forever updating the file... We probably don't want this, so
let's just catch this case in Validate.
Of course you could get around this with multiple files, and a fancier
search could statically check the graph, but the goal isn't to prevent
any bad code, since that's not likely to be possible.
We forgot to reject this corner case which could lead to a runtime error
since the expected type from the incoming struct would not match what
we're handling.
Instead of constantly making these updates, let's just remove the year
since things are stored in git anyways, and this is not an actual modern
legal risk anymore.
This lets you boot from ipxe. You can run the ipxe shell from their
stock image or the netboot.xyz one. For the latter, press "m", then type
"dhcp" (machine is now pingable!) then type "route" to check the ip.
To boot type:
chain http://192.168.42.1:4280/menu.ipxe
and you're off!
Thanks to frebib for finding the workaround to the VFS bug. The answer
is you need to run the imgfree command to unblock the initrd.
Unfortunately with Fedora 41 and DNF5, this breaks what our host machine
expects. So you now need dnf5+ to make this work, or you can revert this
commit.
This is needed for bigger code bases. Remember: this is consulted at the
deploy stage, and the deploy contains the entire tree (including
modules) of everything it needs to run. This is why you don't need to
add a --module-path arg when running mgmt in systemd with the "empty"
frontend.
If more than one star import is present in the same scope, allow it. If
one star import could overwrite something, ordering is not guaranteed.
We allow this for now, but we might create a compiler fix to stop it.
This adds a test to notice both of these behaviours.
Even if they have no side effect, they aren't legal, since it would be
surprising if suddenly something new got added in one which then broke
the imports.
Fix a small panic that could happen if we had a bad clone, and make
visibility into this operation better. We also make room for future
context cancellation since the library now supports this.
If we've set the --module-path arg, then we expect to rebase that path
out of the deploy, and instead it should show up as /modules/ which is
the standard. Handle this scenario.
This adds a new util package with some useful functionality which could
be implemented as pure mcl, but instead we add it here as a good place
to help with code reuse.
With the release of Fedora 41, I was getting lots of mirror errors.
Hopefully this helps make it more robust. It was failing repeatedly
while trying to download packages, and I kept having to restart things,
but once I added this option things worked. Hopefully they're related.
