There is the legacy kiwi version and there is this kiwi(next generation).
From a documentation perspective there are several inconsistencies that
could confuse users. This commit makes the name for KIWI-NG consistent
across the entire documentation. At places where we point to older
documentation we use the term Legacy KIWI and a link to the documentation
that covers this part. All this is needed in preparation to cleanup the
documentation situation for the SUSE documentation but with respect to
the upstream doc sources, their layout and markup.
SUSE documentation is based on docbook or asciidoc. The kiwi
documentation is maintained along with the code and uses the
sphinx system and therefore ReST as markup language. We would
like to keep one source and don't want to move to another markup
language. Thus the sources needs to be structured in a way that
allows translation into sphinx supported targets as well as
into SUSE docbook style. This commit changes the documentation
structure in a way that both is possible. With the use of Sphinx
XML and rstxml2docbook the ReST docs are converted into docbook.
From there the SUSE daps tool can create SUSE documentation
In addition to the 'kiwi --compat -- ...' style we also support calling
the kiwi compat mode as a service via 'kiwi compat ...' The preferred
way of calling kiwi with legacy options is via the new compat service.
Thus the documentation also changed to no longer mention the --compat
option but it still exists for compatibility reasons. Fixes#407
The meaning of the --ignore-repos option has changed back
to ignore all configured repositories. A new option
named --ignore-repos-used-for-build has been added which
allows to ignore all except imageonly repositories. The
command manual pages has been changed to document the
options. This Fixes#410
In reference to _download_repository_link.html.erb from
https://github.com/openSUSE/open-build-service, we use the
same mechanism to create the download link from an obs://
project definition
* Delete kiwi internal ibs: and suse: types
* Delete handling for --obs-repo-internal and provide a
compatibility message to the user
* Buildservice download server url and scope can be configured
via ~/.config/kiwi/config.yml
* Translate obs urls to http in import_repositories_marked_as_imageinclude
* Use new Uri.is_public method in renamed runtime check
check_image_include_repos_publicly_resolvable
The --set-repo and --add-repo commandline options now allows
additionally to specify a true|false value to indicate if the
repository should be part of the system image repository
setup or not. This Fixes#398
* Updated the docs for system_create command
* Reverted dracut image initialization
* Updated yum comment about repo_gpgcheck option
* Updated variable name in disk builder
* Typo correction
This commit adds --signing-key option which sets a key file to import
into the package manager trusted keys database. This commit adds this
flag support only for zypper.
Fixes#342
The current design of the documentation does not allow for
continous improvement and development. It's missing a basic
structure and concept for documenting step-by-step workflows
and generic explanations.
