# apt-ostree
|
||||
|
||||
A Debian/Ubuntu equivalent of rpm-ostree, providing a hybrid image/package system that combines the strengths of APT package management with OSTree's atomic, immutable deployment model.
|
||||
|
||||
THIS README WAS MADE BY AI
|
||||
APT-OSTREE IS NOT QUITE READY YET.
|
||||
|
||||
iT NEEDS TO BE TESTED AND MADE TO WORK
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
apt-ostree brings the benefits of image-based deployments to the Debian/Ubuntu ecosystem, offering:

## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
### Prerequisites
|
||||
- Rust toolchain (latest stable)
|
||||
- OSTree development libraries
|
||||
- APT development libraries
|
||||
- D-Bus development libraries
|
||||
|
||||
### Build from Source
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
git clone <repository-url>
|
||||
cd apt-ostree
|
||||
cargo build --release
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Install System Components
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Install daemon and service files
|
||||
sudo cp target/release/apt-ostreed /usr/bin/
|
||||
sudo cp src/daemon/apt-ostreed.service /etc/systemd/system/
|
||||
sudo cp src/daemon/apt-ostree-bootstatus.service /etc/systemd/system/
|
||||
|
||||
# Install D-Bus policy
|
||||
sudo cp src/daemon/org.aptostree.dev.conf /etc/dbus-1/system.d/
|
||||
|
||||
# Enable and start services
|
||||
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
|
||||
sudo systemctl enable apt-ostreed
|
||||
sudo systemctl start apt-ostreed
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
### Basic Commands
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Check system status
|
||||
apt-ostree status
|
||||
|
||||
# Install packages
|
||||
sudo apt-ostree install package1 package2
|
||||
|
||||
# Upgrade system
|
||||
sudo apt-ostree upgrade
|
||||
|
||||
# Rollback to previous deployment
|
||||
sudo apt-ostree rollback
|
||||
|
||||
# Search for packages
|
||||
apt-ostree search query
|
||||
|
||||
# Show package information
|
||||
apt-ostree info package-name
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### OSTree Environment Detection
|
||||
apt-ostree automatically detects if it's running in an OSTree environment using multiple methods:
|
||||
- Filesystem detection (`/ostree` directory)
|
||||
- Boot detection (`/run/ostree-booted` file)
|
||||
- Kernel parameter detection (`ostree` in `/proc/cmdline`)
|
||||
- Library detection (OSTree sysroot loading)
|
||||
- Service detection (daemon availability)
|
||||
|
||||
### Error Handling
|
||||
When not running in an OSTree environment, apt-ostree provides clear error messages:
|
||||
```
|
||||
Error: apt-ostree requires an OSTree environment to operate.
|
||||
|
||||
This system does not appear to be running on an OSTree deployment.
|
||||
|
||||
To use apt-ostree:
|
||||
1. Ensure you are running on an OSTree-based system
|
||||
2. Verify that /ostree directory exists
|
||||
3. Verify that /run/ostree-booted file exists
|
||||
4. Ensure you have a valid booted deployment
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
### Core Components
|
||||
- **APT Manager**: Package management using libapt-pkg
|
||||
- **OSTree Manager**: Deployment management and filesystem operations
|
||||
- **System Integration**: Coordination between APT and OSTree
|
||||
- **Package Manager**: High-level package operations
|
||||
- **OSTree Detection**: Environment detection and validation
|
||||
- **Permissions**: Root privilege checks and error handling
|
||||
|
||||
### Design Principles
|
||||
- **"From Scratch" Philosophy**: Every change regenerates the target filesystem completely
|
||||
- **Atomic Operations**: All changes are atomic with proper rollback support
|
||||
- **Immutable Base + Layered Packages**: Clear separation of base system and user packages
|
||||
- **Identical User Experience**: 100% CLI compatibility with rpm-ostree
|
||||
|
||||
