Or, to be more precise, a fix for the fix preceding the current fix for
issue #25 that just didn't fix things right. If your head spins, see the
previous commit, or call an ambulance (that is, if you are privileged
enough to access a phone and know your local helpline number)
Uses multithreading.Process instead of GLib.timeout_add()
The moment I finished writing this part, I found out the only problem
with my previous commit was that I had setup the timeout _after_ calling
the blocking function wait_for_change instead of before it.
Although this version (with Process) works, I'm reverting to the
previous version and swapping the two lines (which I had tested and
found to work)
And in case you have read upto the previous line you should also know I
fixed some code in the README
TL;DR: I have proven once again I am an idiot
Made messages printed in Makefile more understandable. Removed full path
of naxalnet from the systemd service. Now you can start naxalnet even if
it is installed in /usr/local/bin, if systemd allows (I have not tested
it). Many comments were made to respect the 80 chars per line rule.
And, of course, added some political commentary to insult the global
superpower (superpower in terms of money, military and something else I
forgot). And removed MANIFEST.in, which probably haven't changed anything.
This was previously done by the systemd service. But since we allowed
changing the name of bat0 and bridge0, we can't expect systemd to still
do that job. Commented out some lines in the systemd service and made it
send SIGINT instead of the default SIGTERM to kill naxalnet. I
accidentally used to increment a2, a3, a4, ... in the __version__
instead of dev1, dev2, &c. a few commits back. Removed some print()
lines lurking somewhere in the code. The cleanup is still not completed.
We still have to delete the interfaces bridge0 and bat0, or whatever
name the user gives it. Just out of boredom, I added some description to
some network configuration, though so I doubt if anyone will understand
it more because of that.
Added arg and config option to manually set gw_mode.
When gateway_mode is auto, a temporary config will be added, and after a
ten sec delay, naxalnet will check if systemd-networkd shows a
'routable' connection. If the connection is routable, gw_mode will be
set to server; or client otherwise.
We now use NetworkD() to configure systemd-networkd.
Path.glob doesn't return things in alphabetical order, which is needed
to configure networkd without any error. Need a fix for that.
Too much configs and args make debugging harder. The class networkd will
be used to add config files to the networkd runtime dir after formatting
the file with str.format().
