Add a Yunohost App Generator (alias Yologen)

[lapineige]

A flask webapp to generate a basic (for now) & working Yunohost app using no more than a web form.

[lapineige]

One thing that will require some discussion : where should this (flask app) be hosted ?

Right now people willing to try it can use my own hosting, that is not intended to be the final public version. Please contact me (for instance in the matrix room) to get it.

We will host it on one of our servers. 😉

Small bugs to fix:

• config panel file and conf files have a wrong name
• in manifest, "not relevant" is not between quotes, and multi-instance "false" is "False"
• python setting is broken
• python option needs python3-venv package

[alexAubin]

Imho the remaining roadmap is :

• test / check / fix the last two blocks (7 and 8)
• implement i18n using Flask-Babel
• try packaging a couple apps (that may or may not be already packaged) to check if the output is decent and if there's any obvious stuff that should be taken care of
• deploy on yunohost's infrastructure ?

4 issues found in current configuration:

• configuration file is not generated (no .env in the archive)
• yarn custom installation setup is reset to default
• yarn is not even installed
• multi_instance = true ldap = "false" # TODO : fixme, use actual booleans + handle the "not_relevant" value
  Generated on the same line

default restore script restores $install_dir while backup does not declare it for well you know... backup.

[tituspijean]

• "Sources" field should be optional (Python app can only rely on pip to download sources)
• "multi_instance" and "ldap" fields end up on the same line (and should not be quoted if true or false)
• Newline missing before "[resources.apt]" and "[resources.database]"
• Config filename is still "some_config_file" in the upgrade script
• Restore script does not restart the service
• No _common.sh file is created

[lapineige]

• While using logrotate, one can't choose a specific logfile.

[lapineige]

• in upgrade script at least, config file name isn't reused YunoHost-Apps/linkwarden_ynh@9497bd1
• YunoHost-Apps/linkwarden_ynh@45b0a9a ?
• default path could be $app name YunoHost-Apps/linkwarden_ynh@7ab7998

[OniriCorpe]

• add the manifest.toml schema YunoHost-Apps/linkwarden_ynh@158a923
• add the tests.toml schema YunoHost-Apps/linkwarden_ynh@08c8b39

[lapineige]

• add the manifest.toml schema YunoHost-Apps/linkwarden_ynh@158a923

  • add the tests.toml schema YunoHost-Apps/linkwarden_ynh@08c8b39

What are these ? 🤔
