**Scripts** **Scripts**
You can add scripts in `DEBIAN` to further customize installation: You can add scripts in `DEBIAN` to further customize installation:
| script | when | | script | when |
|----------|---------------------| | -------- | ------------------- |
| preinst | before installation | | preinst | before installation |
| postinst | after installation | | postinst | after installation |
| prerm | before removal | | prerm | before removal |
| postrm | after removal | | postrm | after removal |
The scripts can be used to e. g. reload the settings server: Use those to create folders, auto-generate files, cleanup, etc.
#!/bin/bash
set -e
systemctl restart tooloop-settings-server
exit 0
**Building the Debian package** ## Building and deploying your package
dpkg --build packagefolder packagename_version_architecture.deb There scripts that you can use to build and deploy your package on a Tooloop OS Box. In fact, its these scripts that are used by the Tooloop OS installer.
Start by simply copying the `hello-world` folder and hack away from there.
e.g. 1. Clone this repo on a Tooloop Box
2. Add your package folder (e. g. by copying the hello-world example)
dpkg --build kiosk-browser tooloop-processing-example_0.9.0_amd64.deb 3. Build packages
```bash
./build.sh
```
4. Deploy packages
```bash
## Setting up the local .deb repository ./deploy.sh
```
https://askubuntu.com/questions/170348/how-to-create-a-local-apt-repository#176546 5. Restart the control center
```bash
Create a packages directory and a dirctory where installed addons will live in: sudo systemctyl restart tooloop-control.service
```
mkdir /assets/packages /assets/addons
chown -R tooloop:tooloop /assets
Add `.keep` files so apt will not remove folders when purging packages:
touch /assets/addons/.keep
touch /assets/presentation/.keep
touch opt/tooloop/settings─server/installed_app/.keep
Create a script that will scan packages and create a RELEASE file apt-get update can read
`/opt/tooloop/scripts/update-tooloop-packages`
#! /bin/bash
cd /assets/packages
# Generate the Packages file
dpkg-scanpackages . /dev/null > Packages
gzip --keep --force -9 Packages
# Generate the Release file
cat conf/distributions > Release
# The Date: field has the same format as the Debian package changelog entries,
# that is, RFC 2822 with time zone +0000
echo -e "Date: `LANG=C date -Ru`" >> Release
# Release must contain MD5 sums of all repository files (in a simple repo just the Packages and Packages.gz files)
echo -e 'MD5Sum:' >> Release
printf ' '$(md5sum Packages.gz | cut --delimiter=' ' --fields=1)' %16d Packages.gz' $(wc --bytes Packages.gz | cut --delimiter=' ' --fields=1) >> Release
printf '\n '$(md5sum Packages | cut --delimiter=' ' --fields=1)' %16d Packages' $(wc --bytes Packages | cut --delimiter=' ' --fields=1) >> Release
# Release must contain SHA256 sums of all repository files (in a simple repo just the Packages and Packages.gz files)
