- Monitoring: Migrated from manual Grafana/Prometheus manifests to kube-prometheus-stack based setup in etc/init_monitoring.sh. Removed old manifest files from deploy/ and k8s/.
- Installer Core: Refactored installer with new modules for actions, environment handling, and UI screens. Enhanced Milestone logic to support advanced configuration (ArgoCD, Registry namespaces, Kerberos flags, etc.).
- Service & Init Scripts: Updated multiple initialization scripts (init_*.sh) for better integration with OpenBao, Kerberos, and the new monitoring stack. Added new scripts for Nginx Ingress, Ollama parsing, and K3D route fixes.
- Infrastructure: Enhanced Samba AD DC Ansible role with realm derivation, provisioning guidance, and group management. Updated K3s role tasks.
- Configuration: Refined default settings in conf/ to align with the new deployment architecture.
- App & Tools: Updated prole-app Swift code and prole.sh for improved environment variable handling and installation flow.
- Moved files from 'prole/' subdirectory to root level or appropriate subdirectories (tests, authority, infrastructure) to flatten the project structure.
- Updated 'install.py' and initialization scripts in 'etc/' to reflect the new directory layout.
- Added 'etc/repair_pipeline.sh' for automated pipeline repairs.
- Updated configuration files including 'conf/prole.cfg' and 'env.sh'.
- Integrated ArgoCD manifests in 'k8s/argocd/'.
- Updated 'prole-app' environment and properties.
- Moved and updated test scripts for better organization and reliability.
- Added 'tests/silent_install_test.sh' for automated installation testing.
- Moved prole-tools-app to prole-app at the project root to make it self-contained for transition to its own repository.
- Created prole-tools-app/dist/ directory to host build artifacts.
- Generated distribution artifacts (Prole Tools.app and Prole Tools.zip) using prole-app/build.sh package.
- Checked in the generated artifacts to prole-tools-app/dist/ (bypassing .gitignore for temporary release process).
Changes Summary
•
Renamed directory prole-tools-app/ to prole-app/.
•
Populated prole-tools-app/dist/ with the latest build output from prole-app/build.sh.
•
Staged all changes, including the forced addition of ignored artifacts in prole-tools-app/dist/.
- Replace direct script invocation with `$PROLE_HOME/env.sh` wrapper for consistent environment setup across all components.
- Update runtime processes to dynamically resolve `$PROLE_HOME` or fallback to `$HOME/.prole`.
- Deprecate `init-port-forwards.sh` script bundling; remove from LaunchAgentManager and build system.
- Overhaul `env.sh` generation to include execution capability, customizable paths, and improved error handling.
- Standardize app name and paths to "Prole Tools" across all files and UI elements.
- Adjust build output to align with new structure, including executable naming and resource packaging.
feat(installer): clear overlay widgets on page switch; generate robust env.sh with safe PATH defaults
•
Fix UI bug where Environment page widgets persisted after navigation
◦
Destroy overlay widgets and clear page-specific canvas items in _clear_canvas_page()
•
Improve $PROLE_HOME/env.sh generation in _save_env_to_file()
◦
Export core PROLE_* directories
◦
Add portable _prole_add_path helper
◦
Prepend $PROLE_HOME/bin and common macOS paths: /opt/homebrew/bin, /usr/local/bin, /usr/bin, /bin, /usr/sbin, /sbin
◦
Export final PATH and include guidance for custom paths (e.g., Ollama app bundle)
Rationale: Ensures clean screen transitions in the installer and provides a minimal, safe PATH so shells launched by Prole.app can find docker and ollama by default.
•
Strip all embedded shell from LaunchAgentManager.swift; use external etc/init-port-fowards.sh copied from app Resources at runtime; set executable perms
•
Set defaultHelperScript to empty to eliminate inline script
•
Build script: bundle init-port-fowards.sh into Prole.app/Contents/Resources and chmod +x; capture spm_build_binary path via tail -n1
•
Fix malformed multiline XML in PortMappingsXML.save()
•
Preferences: handle new .agentPF tab in didSelect and windowDidResize
Result: Prole.app builds cleanly on arm64; no inline shell remains; embedded dylibs packaged and codesigned
- ServiceChecker now runs as a background timer task (30s), skips overlapping runs, and caches per-endpoint state from Preferences (services + kubernetes). Legacy UI flags are kept in sync for StatusView/Overlay.
- Auto-reload on Preferences save: ServiceChecker listens to Config.didChange, clears caches, invalidates freshness, and triggers an immediate refresh.
- Preferences: ensure in-progress text edits are committed before saving (endEditing) for Kubernetes, Services, and Ports tabs.
- PortForwardManager: fix crash in termination handler by reading terminationStatus from the provided Process instance, then updating state on the manager queue.
- Minor: keep existing UI wiring; logging intact for diagnostics.
TODO: remove (list unused code paths)
- Config.primaryKube (unused in prole-app)
- Config.string(_:, default:) (unused in prole-app)
- Config.int(_:, default:) (unused in prole-app)
- PortForwardManager.parsePFCommand tuple parts `modeBackground` and `keepAlive` (never read by callers)
- Config.pfModeBackground and Config.pfKeepAlive (currently ineffective because their values aren’t used downstream)
- Replaced all IRCKit (0.16) usage with NozeIO `swift-nio-irc-client` (SwiftPM).
- Enabled IRC window with new client: connects and joins `#prole` (plain TCP for now; SSL checkbox displays a notice).
- Enabled RoyalVNC and removed all optional/flag-based handling. Integrated RoyalVNC via SwiftPM (`royalvnc` on `main`).
- Updated VNC UI to current RoyalVNC API: `VNCConnection` + `VNCCAFramebufferView` with a strong delegate reference.
- Simplified build to use SwiftPM for both IRC and RoyalVNC.
- Fixed runtime embedding and loader issues:
- Copy SwiftPM-built `.dylib` products (e.g., `libRoyalVNCKit.dylib`) into `Contents/Frameworks` and codesign them.
- Added `@executable_path/../Frameworks` to app rpaths with `install_name_tool`.
- Removed manual RoyalVNCKit `.xcframework` building/embedding and any IRCKit traces.
#### Key changes
- `prole-app/build.sh`:
- Build app via SwiftPM; removed IRCKit and manual RoyalVNC build logic.
- Embed SwiftPM `.dylib` outputs into `Contents/Frameworks` and set app rpath.
- Cleaned usage text; dependencies now handled by SwiftPM.
- `prole-app/Package.swift`:
- Add `swift-nio-irc-client` (NozeIO) dependency.
- Add RoyalVNC via SwiftPM: `https://github.com/royalapplications/royalvnc` on `main`.
- `prole-app/Sources/IRCWindowController.swift`:
- Migrate to NozeIO `IRC` package API; re-enable Connect; join `#prole`.
- Import AppKit; provide convenience init for transcript view.
- `prole-app/Sources/WorkstationWindowController.swift`:
- Import `RoyalVNCKit`; use `VNCConnection` + `VNCCAFramebufferView`.
- Implement `VNCConnectionDelegate` and keep a strong reference to the delegate.
- `prole-app/debug.sh`:
- Removed IRCKit logs section; kept RoyalVNC logs earlier; then removed manual RoyalVNC altogether.
This build now launches successfully (no dyld errors), opens the Workstation window (RoyalVNC), and the IRC window connects via the new client.
### Suggested follow-ups
- If TLS is required for IRC, add `NIOSSL` integration and wire SSL checkbox to TLS connection.
- Optionally remove leftover Vendor references if any local cache remains.
This marks a milestone alpha build of Prole.
Key changes
- build.sh now supports conditional third‑party frameworks via env flags:
- PROLE_ENABLE_IRCKit (default: 0)
- PROLE_ENABLE_RoyalVNCKit (default: 0)
- When disabled, IRCKit/RoyalVNCKit are not fetched, linked, or embedded.
- Swift compile receives convenience defines for conditional compilation:
- -D PROLE_ENABLE_IRCKit or -D PROLE_ENABLE_IRCKit_DISABLED
- -D PROLE_ENABLE_RoyalVNCKit or -D PROLE_ENABLE_RoyalVNCKit_DISABLED
- Archive flow stabilized; optional SSL-less path for IRCKit remains available via PROLE_DISABLE_SSL=1.
- App bundle generation unchanged (plist, icons, resources, codesign).
Why
- Restore a clean build on current toolchains and allow incremental re‑enablement of optional integrations.
- Make the build resilient: dependencies can be toggled on CI or locally without modifying sources.
Usage examples
- Default (alpha baseline; both off):
./build.sh build --arch arm64
- Enable IRCKit only:
PROLE_ENABLE_IRCKit=1 ./build.sh build --arch arm64
- Enable RoyalVNCKit only:
PROLE_ENABLE_RoyalVNCKit=1 ./build.sh build --arch arm64
- Enable both:
PROLE_ENABLE_IRCKit=1 PROLE_ENABLE_RoyalVNCKit=1 ./build.sh build --arch arm64
Notes
- IRCKit SSL-less switch remains available if needed:
PROLE_DISABLE_SSL=1 PROLE_ENABLE_IRCKit=1 ./build.sh build --arch arm64
- Current alpha defaults keep both IRCKit and RoyalVNCKit disabled.
