Brique Camp 15
Some lovely people got together for 10 days in the Vosges mountains (France) to contribute on YunoHost and the InternetCu.be, from Sept 25th to oct 04th.
A lot of work has been achieved in various fields.
YunoHost development infrastructure
- Unified bugtracker and project tracker http://dev.yunohost.org
- Self-hosted translate web interface https://translate.yunohost.org
- Vagrant boxes for developement https://yunohost.org/vagrant
- Jessie Docker image https://github.com/YunoHost/Dockerfile/pull/2
That means better tools for developpers to work with, and progress to leave the GitHub centralised infrastructure.
InternetCu.be documentation
- A new unified design + documentation on the InternetCube’s repository https://repo.labriqueinter.net
- InternetCube installation documentation reworking (french only) https://yunohost.org/installation_brique_fr
- InternetCube “getting started” flyer creation with awesome drawings (WIP)
- Awesome map with FFDN members providing VPN and/or Cubes : http://internetcu.be
- InternetCube installation script : http://repo.internetcu.be/install-sd.sh
- New schematic on http://internetcu.be & http://labriqueinter.net
Better experience for DIY-ISPs looking to provide Internet Cube to their beloved members.
IPv6 fixes for YunoHost
- IPv6 support on DynDNS domains https://github.com/YunoHost/moulinette-yunohost/pull/95
- IPv6 support in DNSmasq zone files
The future is now !
YunoHost core
- Configuration management and regeneration https://github.com/YunoHost/moulinette-yunohost/commits/regen-conf
- Backup / Restore system enhancement, UX mockups (WIP) and first working implementation
- Packages unification http://pad.farcie.fr/p/yunohost-control
- Use of MariaDB instead of MySQL by default on Jessie
The long awaited backup feature is on its way: it will be soon in the testing branch of YunoHost, and then in a stable release.
A lot of work has been achieved around external package configuration, and core package organisation. One could expect to simply apt-get install yunohost some day.
YunoHost web administration
- Backup interface implementation in the adminjs https://github.com/zamentur/admin_js/tree/backup
- Debug page for any installed app in web administration
- Changed the positions of some button in the admin interface to make them more accessible (update/upgrade on front page, firewall and monitoring in tools)
Because not everyone love command-line interface, we need to make YunoHost accessible and usable in a browser.
InternetCu.be VPN client
- Ease of VPN client configuration http://internetcu.be/dotcubefiles.html
- Improvement of the robustness of VPN Client : https://github.com/labriqueinternet/vpnclient_ynh/issues/7
- Handling of shared-secrets in VPN Client : https://github.com/labriqueinternet/vpnclient_ynh/issues/21
- DNS resolvers in VPN Client (fix a bug with filtered public DNS) : https://github.com/labriqueinternet/vpnclient_ynh/issues/22
VPN client is now more stable and more easy to set up. Good news for self-hosters.
InternetCu.be images
- All images have been updated
- A separated image for LIME2 is available
- An image with an encrypted filesystem is available, both for LIME and LIME2
YunoHost applications
- Dolibarr and Noalyss (phpcompta) have nearly fully working package (missing SSOwat integration) https://github.com/psycojoker/dolibarr_ynh https://github.com/psycojoker/noalyss_ynh
- A Github repository containing the application lists and a new validation process for the apps: https://github.com/YunoHost/apps
Note that some of these new features are still in development and require some testing. They are not yet available via YunoHost updates.
