- It is simpler to keep all the configuration in a single file. Any overrides are expected to be done by writing additional configuration files with higher priority. - /etc/apache2/site-available/ is typically reserved for virtual host configurations. Redirections and proxying for all virtual hosts rather belongs in /etc/apache2/conf-available/. - This looses the option of disabling plinth-ssl.conf when needed. In the initial days of enabling TLS, there was a need felt to keep the option of easily disabling redirection to TLS in case there is a need for it. However, TLS certificate setup is mature and the limitations are well understood. There is no longer a need for it. It still may be possible to avoid the redirection with an additional configuration. Tests: - In a fresh container, setup succeeds. Redirecting to https:// for /plinth works. FreedomBox web interface is available. - Without the patch applied created a container. Run setup and access Plinth interface. Apply the patches. Apache setup is run. a2query -s plinth and a2query -s plinth-ssl show that sites are not enabled. Redirecting to https:// for /plinth works. FreedomBox web interface is available. Signed-off-by: Sunil Mohan Adapa <sunil@medhas.org> Reviewed-by: James Valleroy <jvalleroy@mailbox.org>
FreedomBox Service (Plinth)
The core functionality and web front-end of FreedomBox.
Description
FreedomBox is a community project to develop, design and promote personal servers running free software for private, personal communications. It is a networking appliance designed to allow interfacing with the rest of the Internet under conditions of protected privacy and data security. It hosts applications such as blog, wiki, website, social network, email, web proxy and a Tor relay, on a device that can replace your Wi-Fi router, so that your data stays with you.
This module, called FreedomBox Service and also know as Plinth, is the core functionality and web interface to the functions of the FreedomBox. It is extensible and provides various applications of FreedomBox as modules. Each module or application provides simplified user interface to control the underlying functionality. As FreedomBox can act as a wireless router, it is possible to configure networking. It also allows configuration of basic system parameters such as time zone, hostname and automatic upgrades.
You can find more information about FreedomBox Service (Plinth) on the Plinth Wiki page, the FreedomBox Wiki and the FreedomBox Manual.
Getting Started
To have a running FreedomBox, first install Debian (Buster or higher) on a clean machine. Then run:
$ sudo apt install freedombox
Full instructions are available on FreedomBox Manual's QuickStart page.
For instructions on running the service on a local machine from source code, see INSTALL.md. For instructions on setting up for development purposes, see HACKING.md.
