Re: hook to download git repositories in the user home

Hi Federico

I'm using lightDM, but it can be done with most other display managers: gdm, kdm, .......

in /includes.chroot/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

[SeatDefaults]

session-setup-script=/usr/share/[your directory]/[script to run]

This is the script that is called from lightdm.conf

includes.chroot/usr/share/[your directory]/[script to run]

#!/bin/bash

# NOTE: this could also be done in your /includes.chroot/etc/skel/[script to run] directory

if [ -d "/home/$USER/[script to run]" ]; then

mkdir /home/$USER/.config/[your directory]

if [ ! -f "/home/$USER/.config/[your directory]/[script to run]" ]; then

## do your code in here ##

touch /home/$USER/.config/[your directory]/[script to run]

chown -R $USER:$USER /home/$USER

Hope this helps.

cheers

Hi Ozi

yes, executing the hook when the user logs on for the first time would be nice. How can I do it?

The script below replies to the other thread I opened, right? I'll reply there...

Hi Federico

At the point when that hook is executed is there a user with a home folder?

Maybe you could do it when the user logs on for the first time.

Try this it should give you the text installer.

NB this config script is for veriosn 3.x of Live-build.

#!/bin/sh

set -e

_DISTRIBUTION="wheezy"
_ARCHITECTURES="amd64"
_LINUX_FLAVOURS="amd64"
_ARCHIVE_AREAS="main contrib non-free"
_SOURCE="false"

_MIRROR_BINARY="http://http.us.debian.org/debian/"

lb config noauto \
--mode debian \
--distribution "${_DISTRIBUTION}" \
--debian-installer live \

--architectures "${_ARCHITECTURES}" \
--linux-flavours "${_LINUX_FLAVOURS}" \
--apt-recommends false \

--apt-options "--yes --no-install-recommends" \
--apt-secure true \
--apt-indices false \

--apt-source-archives false \
--archive-areas "${_ARCHIVE_AREAS}" \
--parent-mirror-bootstrap "${_MIRROR_BINARY}" \

--mirror-bootstrap "${_MIRROR_BINARY}" \
--parent-mirror-binary "${_MIRROR_BINARY}" \
--mirror-binary "${_MIRROR_BINARY}" \
--security false \
--updates false \
--memtest none \

--win32-loader false \

Hi all

I'd like to be able to automatically download some git repositories in the home of the live user and also of any user installed. How can I achieve that?

I've tried this:
https://github.com/fedelibre/LilyDev/blob/master/config/includes.chroot/lib/live/config/2000-lilyrepo.hook

but I guess that it's not the right path.
Can you give me some hints?

Thanks
Federico
