Adds a reusable function to fetch the latest tag from a GitHub repo.
Useful for projects that only use tags, not full releases (e.g.
mongodb/mongo-tools).
Features:
- Optional prefix filter (e.g. '100.' or 'v')
- Optional prefix stripping for clean version output
- Skips pre-release tags (rc, alpha, beta, dev, test)
- Sorts by version (sort -V) to find the latest
- Respects GITHUB_TOKEN for rate limiting
Root cause: post_update_to_api set POST_UPDATE_DONE=true even after
all 3 retry attempts failed (curl timeout, API error). This prevented
the EXIT trap (api_exit_script) from retrying with fresh attempts.
Changes:
- Only set POST_UPDATE_DONE=true on actual HTTP 2xx success
- If all 3 attempts fail, EXIT trap gets 3 more fresh attempts
- Increase timeout from 5s to 10s for final status updates (STATUS_TIMEOUT)
Progress pings keep 5s (TELEMETRY_TIMEOUT) since they're lightweight
- post_update_to_api_extended: add proper retry logic + HTTP code check
(was fire-and-forget with no retry)
Validation status was persisting through container start, network check,
and OS customization. Now transitions to 'configuring' immediately after
create_lxc_container returns. Validation only covers storage/template/cluster
checks as intended.
Pipe lxc-attach output through tee into /tmp/.install-capture-${SESSION_ID}.log and use PIPESTATUS[0] to get the real lxc-attach exit code. Prefer a pulled container-side INSTALL_LOG when it exists and is >100 bytes; otherwise fall back to the host-captured terminal log (stripping ANSI codes) and append it to the combined log so get_full_log() can find it. Apply the same capture behavior to the retry path and remove temporary capture files on completion. This makes install output reliable when container-side logging is missing (DNS errors, early crashes, or missing silent() usage).
After 'export INSTALL_LOG' in build.func, get_active_logfile() returned
the container's INSTALL_LOG path for all host-side logging, causing
msg_info/msg_ok/msg_error on the host to write to /root/.install-SESSION.log
(the host file, not the container's) instead of BUILD_LOG. This made
BUILD_LOG incomplete and get_full_log() unable to send full traces.
Fix: Add _HOST_LOGFILE (not exported, invisible to container) so the host
always logs to BUILD_LOG. Container still uses INSTALL_LOG as before.
* Enhance telemetry, signal handling, and logs
Improve failure telemetry and signal handling across the installer: add get_full_log() to collect/strip/truncate install logs and include them in API payloads with a truncated retry; add CONTAINER_INSTALLING flag around lxc-attach and stop containers on abort to avoid orphaned "installing/configuring" records; introduce _send_abort_telemetry() (curl fallback for container context) and _stop_container_if_installing() helpers; centralize and simplify EXIT/ERR/INT/TERM/HUP traps and handlers (including a new on_hangup handler) and update VM scripts to report numeric exit codes. Also ensure best-effort log collection is performed and tweak error categorization for certain signals.
* Include full log in error telemetry
Use get_full_log (up to 120KB) to populate the error telemetry field so the API receives the full installation trace; fall back to get_error_text (last ~20 lines) if the full log is empty. Removed collection and inclusion of a separate install_log field from the JSON payloads and simplified the retry payloads/comments accordingly. The change ensures error reports contain the complete trace while avoiding duplicate large log fields and keeps graceful failure handling (get_full_log || true).
* Anonymize IP addresses in get_full_log
Mask IPv4 addresses in logs when collecting full log output: added a sed step that replaces the last two octets with "x.x" to avoid exposing full IPs (GDPR). Also updated the comment to reflect anonymization; existing steps that strip carriage returns and ANSI escape sequences remain in place before truncating with head -c.
Prevent host-side error_handler from being triggered during in-container install/recovery by delaying re-enabling set -Eeuo pipefail and the ERR trap in misc/build.func until after install/recovery completes; add explanatory comments. Update misc/error_handler.func to fall back to BUILD_LOG if container-internal log path is unavailable, show the last 20 log lines when present, refine container vs host detection (check INSTALL_LOG file and /root), copy INSTALL_LOG into /root and write a .failed flag with the exit code for host-side detection, and ensure full-log output and container removal prompt are shown appropriately in host context. Tweak misc/core.func silent() output to include a "Full log" path and adjust formatting.
