Changed comments and preamble of script.
'backup_file' variable in 'restore_function' is now global to allow for
removal of backup archive if the restoration was successful.
Refactored 'archive_system' function
- function now explicitly identifies which require compressing.
- symbolic links are removed from the list(s) due to causing issues
during the decompression stage when restoring the system. Symlinks
are then stored in a record with the symlink name followed by the
target. Both prefixed with paths to location and ':' delimited,
respectfully.
- system is then compressed using tar gzip compression, overwriting
any previously generated archive generated.
Refactored 'restore_system' function
- changed 'backup_file' to no longer require the final sed command
similar what's found in 'archive_function' - unnecessary
processing.
- fixed tar statement to correctly output the contents of the
decompression to the root of the system ("/").
- added function to recreate the symlink files. It's unlikely that
symlink files need replacing due to their behaviour; however, for
clarity, the identified symlink files during archiving are recreated
to their original location and linked to their target location.
Removed trailing whitespaces.
Changed the behaviour of tar to not be verbose and any output it placed
in a tmp file, STDERR is redirected to logs.
Bug with the format of exit code capture in updater that was fixed in
common; however, those changes hadn't been made until now in updater.
Fixed bugs and issues
- Fixed issue in common script with incorrect exit code capture of
subshells.
- Changed tar command for decompressing data.tar.gz file to only log
STDERR and void STDOUT.
- Log function was called without correct arguments @ln:239. Message
related to there being a new version available but wasn't logged.
Common now contains a notify function which uses notify-send to provide
a user with a notification when the function is called.
- Function takes 2 inputs, {summary} and {body} which are respectful
to the basic arguments for notify-send.
- Function returns an issue with required amount of arguments aren't
met.
- Default arguments are used with notify-send, no other interaction
is made possible.
Updated backup functions to only log STDERR to file, which files are
(de)compressed aren't fundamental to logging information and exact files
can be checked appropriately via other means.
Fixed bug with relative path being incorrect for operation of updater
when sourcing in common.
All the files associated with Microsoft Edge Updater have been added to
this repository to allow for version control as of this point and for
other users to start using/testing the program.
There are no previous commits in the history for these files; however,
further development will be continued and committed to this repo.
Currently the program is at version 0.1.2 in beta phase of development
and currently stable as of minimal testing.
