rpm-ostree
The role supports running on rpm-ostree
systems. The primary issue is that the /usr
filesystem is read-only, and the
role cannot install packages. Instead, it will just verify that the necessary
packages and any other /usr
files are pre-installed. The role will change the
package manager to one that is compatible with rpm-ostree
systems.
Building
To build an ostree image for a particular operating system distribution and
version, use the script .ostree/get_ostree_data.sh
to get the list of
packages. If the role uses other system roles, then the script will include the
packages for the other roles in the list it outputs. The list of packages will
be sorted in alphanumeric order.
Usage:
.ostree/get_ostree_data.sh packages runtime DISTRO-VERSION FORMAT
DISTRO-VERSION
is in the format that Ansible uses for ansible_distribution
and ansible_distribution_version
- for example, Fedora-38
, CentOS-8
,
RedHat-9.4
FORMAT
is one of toml
, json
, yaml
, raw
toml
- each package in a TOML[[packages]]
element
[[packages]]
name = "package-a"
version = "*"
[[packages]]
name = "package-b"
version = "*"
...
yaml
- a YAML list of packages
- package-a
- package-b
...
json
- a JSON list of packages
["package-a","package-b",...]
raw
- a plain text list of packages, one per line
package-a
package-b
...
What format you choose depends on which image builder you are using. For
example, if you are using something based on
osbuild-composer,
you will probably want to use the toml
output format.
