Based on analysis of latest 30 scripts (koel, wallabag, invoiceninja, etc.)
Templates updated to reflect current best practices:
ct/AppName.sh:
- Use check_for_gh_release + fetch_and_deploy_gh_release pattern
- CLEAN_INSTALL=1 for updates
- Proper backup/restore workflow
- Simplified configuration comments
install/AppName-install.sh:
- fetch_and_deploy_gh_release as primary download method (no separate RELEASE variable)
- Real-world examples from Node.js, Python, PHP apps
- import_local_ip called early
- Setup runtimes/databases before app installation
- cleanup_lxc at the end
HELPER_FUNCTIONS.md:
- fetch_and_deploy_gh_release as preferred method (documented first)
- CLEAN_INSTALL=1 environment variable documented
- prebuild type with asset_pattern documented
- Clarified when to use get_latest_github_release vs fetch_and_deploy
Closes#10194
- Add required libraries for snappdf/chromium (libnss3, libatk, libcups2, etc.)
- Download chromium binary via snappdf download command
- Run ninja:post-update for languages/currencies lookup data
Fixes PDF generation error: libnss3.so not found
* fix(mediamanager): use npm install and remove unused yq dependency
- Use npm install instead of npm ci because upstream package-lock.json
is out of sync with package.json (missing esbuild@0.27.2)
- Remove setup_yq call as yq is not used anywhere in the script
(config is handled via sed)
* .
* Change npm command from ci to install
* Add default daily cron job for recyclarr sync
- Create /etc/cron.d/recyclarr file with @daily schedule
- Log output to /root/.config/recyclarr/sync.log
- Uses recommended default schedule from recyclarr docs
- Follows project convention for cron jobs
Implements #10182
* Add notes about daily cron job to recyclarr.json
- Info about automatic daily sync via cron
- Reference to cron file location for customization
- Warning about configuring instances before first sync
* Optimize Jotty installation with standalone mode
- Use Next.js standalone mode to reduce folder size from ~2.4GB to ~80MB
- Copy public, howto, and static folders to standalone output
- Remove node_modules and build artifacts after creating standalone version
- Update systemd service to use node directly instead of yarn start
- Improves build efficiency and reduces disk usage
Implements #10178
