This will prevent accidentally running more than 1 instance.
Uses /run/lorax-composer.pid and checks to make sure that the PID
written to it isn't stale.
We need to be able to share the output types from livemedia-creator with
lorax-composer, so move the core of the main() function into
run_creatoe(). Pass in the cmdline args or a DataHolder with them set.
Also make sure the recipe directory and its contents have correct
ownership, and change the default recipe path when using the systemd
service to /var/lib/lorax/composer/recipes/
The queue is in /var/lib/weldr/queue/new by default. It watches the
directory for new symlinks (to /var/lib/weldr/results/<dirname>) and
handles running anaconda on the kickstart found in final-kickstart.ks
inside the symlinked directory.
Also move default_image_name into imgutils so it can be used in other
places.
When running from lorax-composer the wait() call wasn't waiting until
the tar was finished. I think this is due to gevent monkey-patching
something. Using communicate() solves this problem.
This drops support for the TCP port and switches to using a socket at
/var/run/weldr/api.socket
Also add the start of some docs for lorax-composer.
--host and --port argument have been removed.
--group sets the group name to use for access to the socket and its
parent directory. Defaults to 'weldr'
--socket sets the full path to the socket to create. Defaults to
'/var/run/weldr/api.socket'
This includes a new configuration file at /etc/lorax/composer.conf with
built-in defaults. It also adds a YUMLOCK server config object so that
request handlers can access the yum base object without interfering
with each other.
when default value is list or dict the default arguments are
instantiated as objects at the time of definition. This is significant
(exposing visible semantics) when the object is mutable. There’s no way
of re-binding that default argument name in the function’s closure. When
function is executed multiple times with its default value the value
will change between executions, possibly leading to strange side effects.

The lorax-composer program will launch a BDCS compatible API server
using Flask and Gevent. Currently this is a skeleton application with
only one active route (/api/v0/status).
The API code lives in ./src/pylorax/api/v0.py with related code in other
pylorax/api/* modules.
This reduces the amount of code in livemedia-creator to the cmdline
parsing and calling of the installer functions. Moving them into other
modules will allow them to be used by other projects, like the
lorax-composer API server.
This requires OVMF to be setup on the system, and for the kickstart to
create a /boot/efi/ partition. You can then use it to create UEFI
bootable partitioned disk images.
The UEFI firmware needs to be installed manually on the system, either
in the default location of /usr/share/OVMF/ or use --ovmf-path to point
to the location.

Use it to override the default dracut arguments (displayed as part of
the --help output). If you want to extend the default arguments they
all need to be passed in on the cmdline as well. eg.
--dracut-arg='--xz' --dracut-arg='--install /.buildstamp' ...

This uses the --release value as the yum releasever so that $releasever
in a --repo will work.
It also turns on assumeyes so that any gpgkey entries in the .repo file
will be installed and used automatically if gpgcheck is enabled for the
repo.

This makes it easier to specify existing repos with extra args, eg.
/etc/yum.repos.d/redhat.repo generated by subscription-manager.

Previously lorax had no way to use repos with self-signed certificates.
This adds the --noverifyssl cmdline option which will ignore certificate
errors.

commit 5da9f5c179 cleaned up the resultdir
handling, but didn't take into account that on master shutil.copytree
was switched to imgutil.copytree which doesn't care if the empty
directory exists or not.

The cherry-pick for commit 0d28b9e09c
dropped the patch into the middle of setup_logging and added a (unused)
main() function so things would still run, but logging wasn't being
setup properly.
This removes the main() and moves the default_image_name() function
after all of the logging setup code.

The correct way with the current dracut (and it should be backwards
compatible) is to reference it as stage2=hd:LABEL=...
