system updates
the plan is for this repo to contain all system updates, incremental in a form
of text/source code. a node periodically runs the update.sh script which pulls
the repo to receive updates executes apply.sh. the latter then makes changes
and updates the operating system.
typical examples are: upgrade bitcoind, lnd and other services, update system packages, improve configuration of components such as firewall. the run sequence on the node is approximately as follows:
- fetch updates with a
git fetch. - provide a git diff on the screen and confirm with the user.
- pull in the changes with a
git pull --verify-signatures. - run
apply.sh.
at the moment, an on-screen diff and confirmation aren't implemented yet.
nd and ngui is where it'll happen,
in the ndg repo.
when configuring a new node, clone this repo and set up a cron job to execute
the update.sh script once a day. The script requires REPODIR and LOGFILE
env variables set.
