Before, if repo_icon or archive_icon pointed to a non-existent file, then
`fdroid update` would run through the whole process of building a repo,
then fail at the very end because of the non-existent file. On the next
run, `fdroid update` then starts from the beginning.
This just checks for those files at the beginning, and exits with an error
if they are not found.
This is testing the build-tools version auto-detect in `fdroid init`, so it
should be kept as an older version. This is not meant to test the current
version of the build tools.
This means you can just do `cd tests/ && ./run-tests` to run the tests now.
You can still override the APK source with the first argument, like:
cd tests/ && ./run-tests /path/to/lots/of/apks/dir
If `fdroid server update` is run with config that includes an archive, but
the 'archive' subdir does not exist, create it. This mirrors the code that
is in `fdroid update`. Seems to trivial to move to common.py.
To support a fully offline build/signing machine, there is the "local copy
dir". The repo is generated on the offline machine and then copied to a
local dir where a thumb drive or SD Card is mounted. Then on the online
machine, using `fdroid server update --sync-from-local-copy-dir` allows
the whole server update process to happen in a single command:
0. read config.py on online machine's repo
1. rsync from the local_copy_dir to the current dir
2. copy to serverwebroot, awsbucket, etc.
In `fdroid server update`, the rsync command used --update, which
`man rsync` says: "skip files that are newer on the receiver". That could
cause issues of the public repo getting out of sync with the private,
master repo. --archive is a better sync method since it aims to exactly
reproduce the sending dir to the receiving dir.
This allows a dir to be specified in config.py that `fdroid server update`
will automatically rsync the repo to. The idea is that the path would
point to an SD card on a fully offline machine that serves as the secure
repo signing machine.
