## Command Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
### Daemon-Based Execution
|
||||
|
||||
All commands follow the same daemon-based architecture:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **CLI Parsing**: Parse command-line arguments
|
||||
2. **Daemon Communication**: Request operation via D-Bus
|
||||
3. **Fallback Handling**: Use direct system calls if daemon fails
|
||||
4. **Progress Reporting**: Show operation progress
|
||||
5. **Result Display**: Display operation results
|
||||
|
||||
### Implementation Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
```rust
|
||||
// Command execution pattern
|
||||
pub fn execute_command(args: &[String]) -> Result<(), Error> {
|
||||
// 1. Parse arguments
|
||||
let parsed_args = parse_arguments(args)?;
|
||||
|
||||
// 2. Try daemon communication
|
||||
match connect_to_daemon() {
|
||||
Ok(connection) => {
|
||||
// Use daemon for operation
|
||||
execute_via_daemon(connection, parsed_args)?;
|
||||
}
|
||||
Err(_) => {
|
||||
// Fallback to direct calls
|
||||
execute_direct_calls(parsed_args)?;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
Ok(())
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Advanced Features
|
||||
|
||||
### JSON Output
|
||||
|
||||
Many commands support JSON output for programmatic use:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# JSON status output
|
||||
apt-ostree status --json
|
||||
|
||||
# JSON search output
|
||||
apt-ostree search --json firefox
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Verbose Output
|
||||
|
||||
Enable detailed output for debugging:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Verbose upgrade
|
||||
apt-ostree upgrade --verbose
|
||||
|
||||
# Verbose install
|
||||
apt-ostree install --verbose vim
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### OSTree Environment Detection
|
||||
|
||||
apt-ostree automatically detects if it's running in an OSTree environment:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Automatic detection
|
||||
apt-ostree status
|
||||
|
||||
# Error if not in OSTree environment
|
||||
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
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
This system does not appear to be running on an OSTree deployment.
