Looks like I basically had to do this to keep up. With nodejs version 12
(current LTS), the version of fsevents I installed wouldn't build. A
"yarn upgrade" by itself resulted in a new problem as described in #69.
Conversely, the new versions don't install with nodejs 8. So I bit the
bullet and upgraded all the dev dependency stuff and the nodejs at once.
nodejs 10 seems capable of running either the old or new, fwiw.
I'm a little sad that this seems to have made the UI bundle 5% larger.
Before, "yarn build" said 350 KiB. After, 369 KiB. A little bit in
several places. For example, jquery-ui.bundle.js went from 156 KiB (in
2 chunks) to 160 KiB (in 1 chunk) for some reason.
This doesn't take much advantage of async fns so far. For example, the
with_{form,json}_body functions are still designed to be used with
future combinators when it'd be more natural to call them from async
fns now. But it's a start.
Similarly, this still uses the old version of reqwest. Small steps.
Requires Rust 1.40 now. (1.39 is a requirement of async, and 1.40 is a
requirement of http-serve 0.2.0.)
* in markdown files, use code fences rather than indented blocks.
This is harder to screw up (one of them was off by a space so didn't
render properly) and allows me to add info strings.
* uniformly use "useradd" to create the user and group in all three
places (install-manual.md, script-functions.sh, Dockerfile) rather
than addgroup + adduser. Create a full home dir, which I suspect was
the problem in #67. Don't allow customizing group name; it's always
the same as the user.
* install the sqlite3 package so that the "moonfire-nvr sql" command
works properly.
* remove "setup_db" function, which was out of place. Since the
creation of the "moonfire-nvr init" command, this has to happen
after installation of the binary. install.md gives instructions on
this part anyway so remove it from the script.
* give a proper command to create the db dir. It was creating it
within the current directory, not within /var/lib/moonfire-nvr.
Don't bother creating sample directory; "moonfire-nvr config"
will do this.
* when setting owners on a newly created directory, use a single
"install -d" command rather than "mkdir" + "chown".
* address confusion about whether sample file dirs need to be
precreated. (Only when Moonfire NVR doesn't have write permissions
on the parent.)
* always just install the packaged version of ffmpeg rather than
building our own. This has been usable since Debian/Raspbian 9
Stretch; Debian/Raspbian 10 Buster is out now so there's no excuse
for still running Debian/Raspbian 8 Jessie.
* don't chown the UI directory; it can be owned by root as with
the binary.
* in scripts/install.sh, don't enable/start the service yet. It hasn't
been configured.
(I also considered the names "capabilities" and "scopes", but I think
"permissions" is the most widely understood.)
This is increasingly necessary as the web API becomes more capable.
Among other things, it allows:
* non-administrator users who can view but not access camera passwords
or change any state
* workers that update signal state based on cameras' built-in motion
detection or a security system's events but don't need to view videos
* control over what can be done without authenticating
Currently session permissions are just copied from user permissions, but
you can also imagine admin sessions vs not, as a checkbox when signing
in. This would match the standard Unix workflow of using a
non-administrative session most of the time.
Relevant to my current signals work (#28) and to the addition of an
administrative API (#35, including #66).
travis-ci pointed out that the dependency bump broke 1.31:
Compiling docopt v1.1.0
error[E0658]: imports can only refer to extern crate names passed with `--extern` on stable channel (see issue #53130)

Looks like uniform_paths was stabilized in 1.32, and I verified locally that
version builds.
This no longer requires installing ffmpeg manually, so there should be
significantly less data to cache (faster runs). The build step itself
should also be faster when the cache is unavailable/stale.
Also sneak in a change from "pkg-config" to "pkgconf" package in the
scripts and travis CI. They didn't match the manual instructions; make
them all consistent. They both seem to work fine, but I gather pkgconf
is the newer thing. Its roadmap is here and notes that distros are
moving toward it.
https://github.com/pkgconf/pkgconf/wiki/Roadmap
Apparently with docopt, --require-auth=false doesn't work, so booleans
with a default value of true can't be turned off. Toggle the default to
false to deal with this, for now. I'd prefer the default be true, but
I also would prefer to not use a negative --no-require-auth or
--allow-unauthenticated flag. I think I'll switch from docopt to clap
in the near future; it seems to be what the cool kids use.
The guide is not as quick to follow and amateur-friendly as I'd like. A
few things that might improve matters:
* complete #27 (built-in https+letsencrypt), so that when not sharing
the port, users don't need to use nginx or certbot.
* more ubiquitous IPv6 (out of my control but should happen over
time) to reduce need to share the port
* embed a dynamic DNS client
* support UPnP Internet Gateway Device Control Protocol (if common
routers have this enabled? probably not for security reasons.)
It's progress, though. Enough that I think I'll merge the auth branch
into master shortly.
Fixes#60
The reqwest dependency is significant because the old version required
an old version of openssl, complicating compilation on newer platforms.
reqwest also pulled in old/duplicate versions of hyper, tokio, etc.
Nice to drop a lot of that cruft.
I left rusqlite and uuid alone because they had breaking changes I
didn't want to mess with at the moment.
Bumped the minimum Rust version to 1.30.0, as required by the
new encoding_rs crate (and perhaps other things).
1.26 doesn't work with the updated rusqlite:
error[E0658]: use of unstable library feature 'duration_extras' (see issue #46507)

1.25 also fails with the upgraded reffers because u128 isn't stable:
error[E0658]: 128-bit type is unstable (see issue #35118)

travis-ci pointed out that building with 1.21 broke with a recent dep
upgrade (8c52c36). reffers now uses nested groups of imports, which is a
feature introduced with Rust 1.25. Prior to 1.25, it fails as follows:
error: expected one of `,` or `as`, found `::`

* install.md, install-manual.md, and easy-install.md had a lot of
redundancy. Rework them so the common prefix and suffix are in
install.md and it's clear when to navigate back and forth. This
removes from very stale references to prep.sh and cameras.sql in
install-manual.md (which never should have mentioned these scripts
anyway).
* remove all the SAMPLE_MEDIA_DIR, SAMPLE_FILE_DIR, and
SAMPLE_FILE_PATH stuff from the scripts. This was too complicated
(one variable will suffice) and inconsistent in terminology (a
couple "samples dir" occurrences slipped through review; they
should have been "sample file dir"). It also wasn't really useful
enough because the procedure for a mount point is manual anyway,
and because some installs will have multiple sample file dirs
anyway.
* in the mount point procedure, fix the paths to be consistent. Also
describe the "nofail" and "Requires=" config I have on my machine.
* fix some incorrect info about how to use "moonfire-nvr config" and
describe "flush_if_sec".
* upgrade min required rust to 1.21; crossbeam-deque requires the
ord_max_min feature, apparently stabilized in this version.
* use "make --jobs=2" to build ffmpeg so it goes faster.
https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/reference/overview/ says there are 2
cores available.
* upgrade minimum required Rust from 1.17 to 1.20; reffers 0.4.2
apparently uses std::mem::ManuallyDrop, introduced in 1.20
* install ffmpeg from source (requiring sudo access) rather than using
the ancient one from Ubuntu Trusty to meet the minimum version
requirements specified in ffmpeg/build.rs.
The Rust portions of the merge are straightforward, but the Javascript
is not. The new-schema branch is based on my hacky prototype UI; the
master branch is based on Dolf's rewrite. I attempted to match the
new-schema changes in Dolf's new structure.
* Dockerfile which allows full build on ubuntu
* No cross-compile yet
* Fixed build scripts bug found with docker
Signed-off-by: Dolf Starreveld <dolf@starreveld.com>
* Install and build script enhancements
* Use functions for all reporting for consistent output
* Update reporting text to be more clear
* Add some additional messages
* Re-check some install prep items also in install script
* Fix a bug where the wrong db directory would be configured to the service
* Satisfy PR requested changes (spelling mostly).
