=== `host.py`
|
||
|
|
These functions are used to perform "meta" tasks such as get information about the build host, find <<the_code_build_ini_code_file,the `build.ini` file>>, and parse your configuration options.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
==== getOS()
|
||
|
|
Returns the distribution of the build host.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
==== getBits()
|
||
|
|
Returns the "bitness" of the build host (e.g. `32bit` or `64bit`)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
==== getHostname()
|
||
|
|
Returns the hostname of the build host.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
==== getConfig(_conf_file_ = '/etc/bdisk/build.ini')
|
||
|
|
Returns a list of:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. the default configuration file
|
||
|
|
. the user-specified configuration file
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
===== conf_file
|
||
|
|
This is a full/absolute path that is searched first. If it exists and is a file, it is assumed to be the "canonical" <<the_code_build_ini_code_file,`build.ini` file>>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
==== parseConfig(_confs_)
|
||
|
|
This function parses the configuration file(s) and returns a list of:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. A ConfigParser object
|
||
|
|
. The configuration as a dictionary

|
||
|

It performs some additional things, such as:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Converts "boolean" operations to true Python booleans
|
||
|
|
* Tries to automatically detect the version if one isn't provided
|
||
|
|
* Establishes the build number (this is a number that should be local to the build host)
|
||
|
|
* Forms a list of the <<code_multiarch_code,architectures>> to build
|
||
|
|
* Validates:
|
||
|
|
** The bootstrap tarball mirror
|
||
|
|
** The rsync destination (if <<code_rsync_code,enabled>>)
|
||
|
|
** The iPXE remote URI (if <<code_ipxe_code,enabled>>)
|
||
|
|
** That <<code_basedir_code>> is correctly set
|
||
|
|
* Makes prerequisite directories
|
||
|
