[Sunil]: - Drop Uwsgi component entirely. After the changes, it mostly looks like Daemon component minus some features. One change that Uwsgi component does is when component is disabled, it also stops and disables the .service unit. Stopping the service is useful and we can add this to Daemon component. - Use /run instead of /var/run/ as 1) /var/run is a symlink to /run 2) /run/ path is what is listed in uwsgi-app@.socket unit file. - Implement upgrade for apps from older version. Disable and mask uwsgi init.d script. Enable the daemon component if the webserver component is enabled. - Update manifest files to deal with .socket units instead of 'uwsgi' service. Backup the /var/lib/private directories as that is actual directory to backup with DynamicUser=yes. - For bepasty load the configuration as a systemd provided credential since DynamicUser=yes. - Remove the /var/lib/private directories during uninstall. - Don't create user/group for bepasty as it is not needed with DynamicUser=yes. Tests: - Radicale - Functional tests pass - Freshly install radicale. - Web interface works. - Create and edit calendars - Path of the storage directory is in /var/lib/private/radicale (after accessing web interface) - Permissions on the storage folder and files inside are set to nobody:nobody. - Uninstall removes the /var/lib/private/radicale directory. - Create a calender and backup the app. Uninstall the app. Re-install the app. The calendar is not available. After restoring the backup, the calendar is available. - Install radicale without patch and create a calendar. Apply patches and start plinth.service. Setup is run. UWSGI is disabled and masked. Service is running. Old calender is visible. - Install radicale without patch. Disable and apply patches and start plinth.service. Setup is run. UWSGI is disabled and masked. Service is not running. Enabling the service works. - After upgrade, data storage path got migrated to /var/lib/private/radicale. Old data is accessible. - After upgrade the directory is still owned by radicale:radicale. - Freshly install radicale with patch and restore an old backup. The data is available in the web interface and data was migrated to /var/lib/private/radicale. - Bepasty - Functional tests pass - Freshly install bepasy. - Enabling and disabling rapidly works. - Uploading files works. - Path of the storage directory is /var/lib/private/bepasty. - Permissions on the storage folder are as expect 755 but on the parent are 700. - Permissions on the stored files are 644 and owned by nobody:nobody. - Uninstall removes the /var/lib/private/bepasty directory. - Upload a picture and backup the app. Uninstall the app. Re-install the app. The uploaded file is not available. After restoring the backup, the uploaded file is available. - Install bepasty without patch and upload a file. Apply patches and start plinth.service. Setup is run. UWSGI is disabled and masked. Service is running. Old uploaded picture is visible. - Install bepasty without patch. Disable app. Apply patches and start plinth.service. Setup is run. UWSGI is disabled and masked. Service is not running. Enabling the service works. - After upgrade, data storage path got migrated to /var/lib/private/bepasty. Old data is accessible. - After upgrade the directory is still owned by bepasty:bepasty. - Freshly install bepasty with patch and restore an old backup. The uploaded file is available in the web interface and data was migrated to /var/lib/private/bepasty.
