# apt-ostree
A Debian/Ubuntu equivalent of `rpm-ostree` for atomic, immutable deployments.
**apt-ostree** is a Debian/Ubuntu equivalent of rpm-ostree, providing atomic system updates, package management, and container image generation for Debian-based systems.
## 🎯 **Project Goal**
Make apt-ostree a **1:1 equivalent** of rpm-ostree for Debian systems, with identical CLI interface and functionality adapted for the Debian/Ubuntu ecosystem.
## 🎉 **Major Milestone Achieved: Bootc Image Generation 100% Working!**
## 📋 **Requirements**
- Debian Trixie (13) or Forky (14), or Ubuntu 25.04+ (Noble Numbat) or newer
- OSTree 2025.2+
- APT 3.0+
- Systemd 255+
- Polkit 123+
The project has successfully implemented a complete bootc image generation system that creates OCI-compatible container images from OSTree trees. This feature enables users to generate container images that can be used with bootc and other container orchestration systems.
## 🚀 Quick Start
### ✅ **What's Working Now**
- **Complete bootc image generation** with OCI/Docker export
- **Full OSTree integration** for atomic deployments
- **Real APT package management** with dependency resolution
- **System management commands** (status, upgrade, rollback)
- **Tree composition** from YAML treefiles
- **Multi-format container export** (Docker archive, OCI)
### Prerequisites
### 🔄 **In Progress**
- **D-Bus infrastructure** for client-daemon communication
- **Real-time transaction management**
- **Enhanced system monitoring**
- Debian Trixie (13) or Forky (14), or Ubuntu Noble (24.04) or newer
- OSTree tools installed
- Rust development environment
### Installation

# - Systemd init system
# - All requested packages and dependencies
# - OCI-compatible metadata
```
#### Option 2: Build from Source
### 📦 **Package Management**
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/robojerk/apt-ostree.git
cd apt-ostree
# Install packages
apt-ostree install firefox-esr
# Install build dependencies
sudo apt install build-essential cargo rustc pkg-config \
libostree-dev libglib2.0-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev \
libssl-dev libsystemd-dev libmount-dev libselinux1-dev \
libapt-pkg-dev debhelper dh-cargo
# Search for packages
apt-ostree search "web browser"
# Build for Debian Trixie/Forky
./build-debian-trixie.sh
# Install the built package
sudo dpkg -i ../apt-ostree_0.1.0-2_amd64.deb
# Uninstall packages
apt-ostree uninstall firefox-esr
```
## 🔧 Building for Different Distributions
### Debian Trixie/Forky (Debian 13/14)
```bash
# Use the specialized build script
./build-debian-trixie.sh
```
This script:
- Verifies system compatibility
- Checks for libapt-pkg7.0 support
- Builds with correct dependencies
- Tests package installation
### Ubuntu Noble (24.04)
```bash
# Use the standard Debian build process
./debian/build.sh
```
## 📦 Package Compatibility
| Distribution | Version | libapt-pkg | Status | Notes |
|--------------|---------|------------|---------|-------|
| Debian Trixie | 13 | 7.0 | ✅ Supported | Tested and working |
| Debian Forky | 14 | 7.0 | ✅ Supported | Tested and working |
## 🎯 Usage Examples
### 🖥️ **System Management**
```bash
# Check system status
apt-ostree status
# Install packages atomically
apt-ostree install firefox libreoffice
# Update system
# Perform system upgrade
apt-ostree upgrade
# Rollback to previous deployment
apt-ostree rollback
# View deployment history
apt-ostree log
# Create new deployment from container
apt-ostree deploy ghcr.io/your-org/debian-ostree:latest
```
## 🏗️ Architecture
### 🌳 **Tree Composition**
```yaml
# Example treefile.yaml
ref: debian/13/x86_64
repos:
- name: debian
url: http://deb.debian.org/debian
packages:
include:
- bash
- systemd
- firefox-esr
```
`apt-ostree` works by:
## Quick Start
1. **Creating OSTree deployments** from APT package selections
2. **Managing atomic updates** through OSTree commits
3. **Providing rollback capability** to previous deployments
4. **Integrating with systemd** for boot management
## 🔍 Troubleshooting
### Library Compatibility Issues
If you encounter `libapt-pkg.so.6.0: cannot open shared object file`:
### Prerequisites
- Debian 13+ or Ubuntu 24.04+
- OSTree installed and configured
- Podman or Docker for container operations
### Installation
```bash
# Check your libapt-pkg version
pkg-config --modversion libapt-pkg
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/your-org/apt-ostree.git
cd apt-ostree
# For Debian Trixie/Forky, you need version 3.0.0+
# For Ubuntu Noble, version 2.0.0+ is sufficient
# Build the project
cargo build --release
# Test bootc image generation
./test-compose-container.sh
```
### Build Failures
### Generate Your First Image
```bash
# Clean and rebuild
cargo clean
./build-debian-trixie.sh
# Create a minimal system
apt-ostree compose tree minimal-treefile.yaml --container --verbose
# Load and test the image
podman load -i output/test_minimal.tar

```yaml
env:
APT_OSTREE_VERSION: "0.1.0"
BOOTC_VERSION: "0.1.0"
OSTREE_VERSION: "2025.2"
DEBIAN_CODENAME: "bookworm"
```
### Build Parameters
```yaml
with:
container-format: "docker-archive"
output-dir: "output"
verbose: true
keep-artifacts: false
```
## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
#### 1. Permission Errors
```bash
# Ensure container has proper privileges
docker run --privileged -v $(pwd):/workspace:z apt-ostree-ci
```
#### 2. Package Installation Failures
```bash
# Check repository availability
curl -I http://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/bookworm/Release
# Verify package names
apt-cache search bash
```
#### 3. OSTree Errors
```bash
# Check OSTree installation
ostree --version
# Verify repository permissions
ls -la /var/lib/ostree/
```
#### 4. Bootc Lint Failures
```bash
# Check image format
file output/*.tar
# Verify image contents
tar -tf output/*.tar | head -20
```
### Debug Mode
```bash
# Enable verbose logging
RUST_LOG=debug apt-ostree compose tree treefile.yaml --container --verbose
# Check container logs
docker logs apt-ostree-ci
```
## Performance Considerations
### Resource Limits
- **Memory**: 4-8GB recommended for builds
- **CPU**: 2-4 cores minimum
- **Storage**: 10-20GB for temporary files
- **Network**: Stable connection to package repositories
### Build Optimization
- **Caching**: Cache APT packages between builds
- **Parallel builds**: Use multiple workers if possible
- **Cleanup**: Remove temporary files after build
- **Artifact retention**: Keep only necessary outputs
## Security Notes
### Container Security
- **Privileged mode**: Required for OSTree operations
- **Volume mounts**: Limit access to necessary directories
- **Network access**: Restrict to required repositories only
- **User isolation**: Run as non-root when possible
### Package Security
- **GPG verification**: Verify package signatures
- **Repository validation**: Use trusted package sources
- **Update frequency**: Regular security updates
- **Vulnerability scanning**: Scan generated images
## Monitoring and Logging
### Build Metrics
```bash
# Build time tracking
time apt-ostree compose tree treefile.yaml --container
# Resource usage monitoring
docker stats apt-ostree-ci
# Output size tracking
du -sh output/
```
### Log Analysis
```bash
# Parse build logs
grep "ERROR\|WARN" build.log
# Extract timing information
grep "completed successfully" build.log
# Check package installation status
grep "installed successfully" build.log
```
## Alternative Implementations
### GitLab CI
```yaml
build-image:
image: debian:bookworm-slim
stage: build
script:
- apt-get update && apt-get install -y ostree apt-ostree bootc
- apt-ostree compose tree treefile.yaml --container
- bootc lint output/*.tar
artifacts:
paths:
- output/
expire_in: 1 week
```
### Jenkins Pipeline
```groovy
pipeline {
agent { dockerfile true }
stages {
stage('Build') {
steps {
sh 'apt-ostree compose tree treefile.yaml --container'
}
}
stage('Validate') {
steps {
sh 'bootc lint output/*.tar'
}
}
}
}
```
## Conclusion
This CI/CD setup provides a way to automatically build and validate bootc OSTree images. The pipeline handles tool installation, image generation, and quality validation, ensuring consistent output across different environments.
Key success factors:
- Proper resource allocation
- Stable network connectivity
- Regular dependency updates
- Error handling
- Artifact management
For production use, consider adding:
- Image signing and verification
- Registry push capabilities
- Testing
- Performance monitoring
- Security scanning

# D-Bus Infrastructure Documentation
**Created**: August 21, 2024
**Last Updated**: August 21, 2024
**Status**: 🔄 In Progress - Client Infrastructure Complete
## Overview
The apt-ostree project includes a D-Bus infrastructure for communication between the CLI client and the system daemon (apt-ostreed). This infrastructure enables system management, transaction handling, and privileged operations.
## Architecture
### Service Information
- **Service Name**: `org.projectatomic.aptostree1`
- **Object Path**: `/org/projectatomic/aptostree1`
- **Interface**: `org.projectatomic.aptostree1`
- **Bus Type**: System bus (privileged operations)
### Component Structure
```
┌─────────────────┐ D-Bus ┌─────────────────┐
│ CLI Client │ ←────────→ │ apt-ostreed │
│ (apt-ostree) │ │ Daemon │
└─────────────────┘ └─────────────────┘
│ │
│ │
▼ ▼
┌─────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────┐
│ D-Bus Client │ │ D-Bus Server │
│ (zbus) │ │ (zbus) │
└─────────────────┘ └─────────────────┘
```
## Client Implementation
### AptOstreeClient Trait
The core client interface is defined by the `AptOstreeClient` trait:
```rust
#[async_trait::async_trait]
pub trait AptOstreeClient: Send + Sync {
/// Start a new transaction
async fn start_transaction(&mut self, transaction_type: &str) -> ClientResult<String>;
/// Get transaction status
async fn get_transaction_status(&self, transaction_id: &str) -> ClientResult<String>;
/// Install packages
async fn install_packages(&mut self, transaction_id: &str, packages: &[&str]) -> ClientResult<bool>;
/// Remove packages
async fn remove_packages(&mut self, transaction_id: &str, packages: &[&str]) -> ClientResult<bool>;
/// Upgrade system
async fn upgrade(&mut self, transaction_id: &str) -> ClientResult<bool>;
/// Rollback system
async fn rollback(&mut self, transaction_id: &str) -> ClientResult<bool>;
/// Deploy new deployment
async fn deploy(&mut self, transaction_id: &str, refspec: &str) -> ClientResult<bool>;

}
```
### ClientDBus Implementation
The `ClientDBus` struct provides the concrete implementation:
```rust
pub struct ClientDBus {
config: ClientConfig,
connection: Option<Connection>,
proxy: Option<AptOstreeDaemonProxy<'static>>,
}
```
#### Key Features
- **Connection management**: Handles D-Bus connection lifecycle
- **Error handling**: Error types and conversion
- **Async support**: Async/await compatibility
- **Type safety**: Strong typing for operations
## Data Structures
### DeploymentInfo
```rust
#[derive(Debug, Clone, serde::Serialize, serde::Deserialize)]
pub struct DeploymentInfo {
pub id: String,
pub commit: String,
pub booted: bool,
pub timestamp: String,
pub version: String,
}
```
### ClientConfig
```rust
#[derive(Debug, Clone)]
pub struct ClientConfig {
pub dbus_name: String,
pub dbus_path: String,
pub dbus_interface: String,
pub timeout: std::time::Duration,
}
```
## Error Handling
### ClientError Types
```rust
#[derive(Debug, thiserror::Error)]
pub enum ClientError {
#[error("DBus error: {0}")]
DBus(#[from] zbus::Error),
#[error("Connection error: {0}")]
Connection(String),
#[error("Timeout error: {0}")]
Timeout(String),
#[error("Authentication error: {0}")]
Authentication(String),
}
```
### Error Conversion
- Conversion from zbus errors
- Error messages for connection issues
- Timeout handling for operations
- Authentication error handling
## Usage Examples
### Basic Client Setup
```rust
use apt_ostree::client::{AptOstreeClient, ClientDBus, ClientConfig};
async fn setup_client() -> Result<Box<dyn AptOstreeClient>, Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
let config = ClientConfig::default();
let mut client = ClientDBus::new(config);
// Connect to the daemon
client.connect().await?;
Ok(Box::new(client))
}
```
### Transaction Management
```rust
async fn perform_upgrade() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
let mut client = setup_client().await?;
// Start upgrade transaction
let transaction_id = client.start_transaction("upgrade").await?;
println!("Upgrade transaction started: {}", transaction_id);
// Perform upgrade
let success = client.upgrade(&transaction_id).await?;
if success {
println!("Upgrade completed successfully!");
}
Ok(())
}
```
### Deployment Operations
```rust
async fn manage_deployments() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
let mut client = setup_client().await?;
// Get current deployments
let deployments = client.get_deployments().await?;
for deployment in &deployments {
println!("Deployment: {} (commit: {})", deployment.id, deployment.commit);
}
// Deploy new reference
let transaction_id = client.start_transaction("deploy").await?;
let success = client.deploy(&transaction_id, "debian/13/x86_64").await?;
Ok(())
}
```
## Daemon Integration
### Service Configuration
The daemon runs as a systemd service with D-Bus activation:
```ini
[Unit]
Description=apt-ostree System Management Daemon
Type=dbus
BusName=org.projectatomic.aptostree1
[Service]
ExecStart=+apt-ostree start-daemon
User=apt-ostree
DynamicUser=yes
```
### D-Bus Interface Implementation
The daemon implements the same interface that clients connect to:
```rust
#[interface(name = "org.projectatomic.aptostree1")]
impl DaemonDBus {
fn start_transaction(&self, transaction_type: &str) -> zbus::fdo::Result<String>;
fn upgrade(&self, transaction_id: &str) -> zbus::fdo::Result<bool>;
// ... other methods
}
```
## Security Model
### Authentication
- **Polkit integration**: Privileged operations require authentication
- **User isolation**: Daemon runs as dedicated user
- **Capability management**: Limited system access
### Authorization
- **Transaction validation**: All operations go through transaction system
- **Resource limits**: Prevents resource exhaustion
- **Audit logging**: Operation logging
## Testing
### Unit Tests
```rust
#[cfg(test)]
mod tests {
use super::*;
#[tokio::test]
async fn test_client_connection() {
let config = ClientConfig::default();
let mut client = ClientDBus::new(config);
// Test connection
assert!(client.connect().await.is_ok());
}
}
```
### Integration Tests
```bash
# Test D-Bus communication
./scripts/simple-dbus-test.sh
# Python-based testing
./scripts/test-dbus-python.py
```
## Configuration
### Environment Variables
- `DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS`: D-Bus session bus address
- `DBUS_SYSTEM_BUS_ADDRESS`: D-Bus system bus address
- `RUST_LOG`: Logging level for debugging
### Configuration Files
```toml
# apt-ostreed.conf
[Daemon]
DbusName = "org.projectatomic.aptostree1"
DbusPath = "/org/projectatomic/aptostree1"
TransactionTimeout = 300
MaxConcurrentTransactions = 1
```
## Performance Considerations
### Connection Pooling
- **Persistent connections**: Reuse D-Bus connections
- **Connection limits**: Prevent connection exhaustion
- **Timeout management**: Handle slow operations gracefully
### Transaction Optimization
- **Batch operations**: Group related operations
- **Async processing**: Non-blocking operation handling
- **Resource cleanup**: Cleanup of completed transactions
## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
#### 1. Connection Failures
```bash
# Check daemon status
systemctl status apt-ostreed
# Verify D-Bus service registration
busctl --system list | grep aptostree
```
#### 2. Permission Errors
```bash
# Check Polkit policies
ls -la /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.projectatomic.aptostree1.policy
# Verify user permissions
id apt-ostree
```
#### 3. Transaction Failures
```bash
# Check transaction logs
journalctl -u apt-ostreed -f
# Verify transaction state
apt-ostree transaction status
```
### Debug Mode
Enable detailed logging:
```bash
RUST_LOG=debug apt-ostree start-daemon
```
## Future Enhancements
### Planned Features
- **Real-time notifications**: Signal-based status updates
- **Transaction queuing**: Multiple concurrent transactions
- **Performance monitoring**: Metrics and profiling
- **Plugin system**: Extensible daemon capabilities
### Integration Goals
- **Systemd integration**: Native systemd support
- **Container support**: Kubernetes and Docker integration
- **Monitoring**: Prometheus metrics export
- **Security**: Enhanced authentication and authorization
## Conclusion
The D-Bus infrastructure in apt-ostree provides a foundation for client-daemon communication. With error handling, async support, and strong typing, it enables system management operations while maintaining security and performance.
The infrastructure is designed to be extensible, allowing for future enhancements while maintaining backward compatibility and stability.

## Integration Patterns
### 1. Command-Line Interface
External tools should use the `apt-ostree compose` command:
External tools should use the `apt-ostree compose tree` command:
```bash
# Basic tree composition
apt-ostree compose --treefile treefile.yaml --output-dir /path/to/output
apt-ostree compose tree treefile.yaml
# With custom options
apt-ostree compose \
--treefile treefile.yaml \
--output-dir /path/to/output \
--cache-dir /custom/cache \
--parallel-jobs 8 \
--verbose
# With container generation
apt-ostree compose tree treefile.yaml --container --verbose
# Validate treefile without building
apt-ostree compose --treefile treefile.yaml --validate-only
# With custom repository path
apt-ostree compose tree treefile.yaml --repo /custom/repo/path --container
```
### 2. Programmatic Interface
@ -114,58 +103,49 @@ apt-ostree compose --treefile treefile.yaml --validate-only
For deeper integration, use the Rust library:
```rust
use apt_ostree::commands::compose::{TreeComposer, Treefile};
use apt_ostree::commands::compose::{compose_tree, ComposeOptions};
// Load and validate treefile
let treefile = Treefile::from_file("treefile.yaml")?;
treefile.validate()?;
// Create compose options
let mut options = ComposeOptions::default();
options.generate_container = true;
options.verbose = true;
// Create composer and build tree
let composer = TreeComposer::new(treefile);
let result = composer.compose_tree("/path/to/output")?;
// Access build artifacts
println!("Tree committed: {}", result.commit_hash);
println!("Archive created: {}", result.archive_path);
// Compose tree
let commit_hash = compose_tree("treefile.yaml", None, &options).await?;
println!("Tree committed: {}", commit_hash);
```
### 3. REST API (Future)
### 3. Container Generation
Planned REST API endpoints for cloud-native integration:
To generate bootc-compatible container images:
```http
POST /api/v1/compose
Content-Type: application/json
```bash
# Generate OCI/Docker image
apt-ostree compose tree treefile.yaml --container --verbose
{
"treefile": "base64-encoded-yaml-content",
"options": {
"output_dir": "/path/to/output",
"parallel_jobs": 4
}
}
# Output will be in the current directory or specified location
# Generates both OCI image and Docker archive formats
```
## Treefile Validation
### Schema Validation
### Basic Validation
The treefile must pass these validations:
1. **YAML Syntax**: Valid YAML format
2. **Required Fields**: All mandatory fields present
3. **Field Types**: Correct data types for each field
4. **References**: Valid OSTree references and package names
5. **Security**: Safe file paths and permissions
3. **Package Names**: Valid Debian package names
4. **Repository URLs**: Accessible package repositories
### Validation Commands
### Validation Process
```bash
# Validate treefile syntax and structure
apt-ostree compose --treefile treefile.yaml --validate-only
# Basic syntax check
yamllint treefile.yaml
# Check for common issues
apt-ostree compose --treefile treefile.yaml --lint
# Test with apt-ostree (will fail fast on invalid configurations)
apt-ostree compose tree treefile.yaml --verbose
```
## Package Management Integration
@ -175,142 +155,138 @@ apt-ostree compose --treefile treefile.yaml --lint
External tools can specify custom package sources:
```yaml
spec:
packages:
apt:
sources:
- name: "custom-repo"
url: "https://custom.debian.org/debian"
distribution: "trixie"
components: ["main", "contrib"]
gpg_key: "base64-encoded-gpg-key"
- "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian trixie main contrib non-free"
- "deb http://custom.debian.org/debian trixie main"
- "deb [arch=amd64] http://custom.repo.com/debian trixie main"
```
### Package Selection
Flexible package inclusion/exclusion:
Package inclusion is straightforward:
```yaml
spec:
packages:
include:
packages:
- "package-name"
- "package-name=version"
- "package-name>=version"
exclude:
- "unwanted-package"
- "conflicting-package"
```
## Customization Hooks
## System Customization
### Pre-Install Hooks
### Service Management
Execute commands before package installation:
Enable systemd services:
```yaml
spec:
customizations:
hooks:
pre_install:
- command: "mkdir -p /custom/directory"
- command: "echo 'custom config' > /etc/custom.conf"
system:
services:
- systemd-networkd
- systemd-resolved
- ssh
```
### Post-Install Hooks
### Directory Creation
Create custom directories:
```yaml
system:
directories:
- /etc/myapp
- /var/lib/myapp
- /usr/local/bin
```
### Post-Install Scripts
Execute commands after package installation:
```yaml
spec:
customizations:
hooks:
post_install:
- command: "systemctl enable custom-service"
- command: "update-alternatives --set editor /usr/bin/vim.basic"
postinstall:
- "echo 'Custom configuration' > /etc/myapp/config.conf"
- "systemctl enable myapp-service"
- "update-alternatives --set editor /usr/bin/vim.basic"
```
## OSTree Integration
### Reference Management
External tools should manage OSTree references properly:
Manage OSTree references:
```yaml
spec:
ostree:
ref: "debian/trixie/amd64/base"
parent_ref: "debian/trixie/amd64/base" # For incremental builds
commit_message: "Custom Debian Trixie build"
metadata:
build_tool: "deb-bootc-compose"
build_timestamp: "2025-08-19T18:44:29Z"
build_version: "1.0.0"
ostree:
ref: "debian/trixie/amd64/myapp"
repo: "/srv/ostree/repo"
```
### Delta Generation
### Repository Structure
Enable efficient updates with static deltas:
The generated OSTree repository follows this structure:
```yaml
spec:
ostree:
generate_deltas: true
delta_refs:
- "debian/trixie/amd64/base"
- "debian/trixie/amd64/base"
```
repo/
├── objects/
├── refs/
│ └── heads/
│ └── debian/trixie/amd64/myapp
└── config
```
## Error Handling
### Common Issues
1. **Invalid Package Names**: Check package existence before inclusion
2. **Missing Dependencies**: Ensure all required packages are specified
3. **OSTree Conflicts**: Handle reference conflicts gracefully
4. **Permission Issues**: Validate file paths and permissions
1. **Invalid Package Names**: Check package existence in repositories
2. **Repository Access**: Ensure package sources are accessible
3. **Permission Issues**: Verify write access to OSTree repository
4. **Disk Space**: Ensure sufficient space for tree composition
### Error Response Format
### Error Response
```json
{
"error": "validation_failed",
"message": "Invalid package name: non-existent-package",
"details": {
"field": "spec.packages.include[2]",
"value": "non-existent-package",
"suggestion": "Check package name spelling and availability"
}
}
apt-ostree provides error messages for common issues:
```bash
# Package not found
Error: Package 'non-existent-package' not found in repositories
# Repository access issue
Error: Failed to fetch package lists from http://deb.debian.org/debian
# Permission denied
Error: Permission denied: cannot write to OSTree repository
```

## Conclusion
The apt-ostree project has achieved a milestone with the completion of bootc image generation, establishing it as a functional equivalent to rpm-ostree for Debian systems. The project demonstrates:
- **Technical implementation**: Well-architected implementation
- **Feature completeness**: OSTree and APT integration
- **Testing**: Validated workflows
- **Future potential**: Extensible architecture
With the foundation complete, the project is positioned to continue its evolution toward becoming a system management solution for Debian-based OSTree systems.
## Quick Start
```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/your-org/apt-ostree.git
cd apt-ostree
# Build and test
./test-compose-container.sh
# Generate your first bootc image
apt-ostree compose tree minimal-treefile.yaml --container --verbose
```
For more information, see the detailed documentation in the `docs/` directory.
