rsync uses the modification time and size of the file when deciding whether
to update a file. These are relatively easy to control in malicious code,
so instead make rsync use a full MD5 checksum when decided whether the
index needs to be updated. I suppose we could add an option to use
checksum checking on all files, but since the signed repo already provides
a checksum check, it seems not worth the added load on the process.
Also, renamed 'index' to 'indexxml' to make it clear what is the XML and
what is the JAR.
If a key 'foo' is set to None, `if config.get('foo'):` will be false while
`if 'foo' in config:` will be true. A None value is not useful here, so
config.get() is the better check.
Thanks to Adam Pritchard for the suggestion.
Since it is possible to check the file size and MD5 hash of the file up on
the AWS S3 bucket, `fdroid server update` can check that a file needs to be
updated before actually deleting and uploading the new file.
fixes#3137https://dev.guardianproject.info/issues/3137
This makes the AWS S3 setup dead simple: just put in a awsbucket name of
your choosing, set the AWS credentials, and it'll do the rest, whether the
bucket exists already or not. S3 buckets are trivial to delete too, in
case of error: `s3cmd rb s3://mybadbucketname`.
apache-libcloud enables uploading to basically any cloud storage service.
This is the first implementation that allows `fdroid server` to push a repo
up to a AWS S3 'bucket'. Supporting other cloud storage services should
mostly be a matter of finding the libcloud "Provider" and setting the
access creditials.
fixes#3137https://dev.guardianproject.info/issues/3137
Right now, ssh+rsync is the only supported server upload type. Things like
cloud storage services are useful storage bins for fdroid repos since they
are often not blocked while specific websites like Google Play are.
Having serverwebroot optional in `fdroid server` means that it can support
multiple methods of hosting, like cloud storage services. `fdroid server`
can also then support multiple repo hosting options at the same time.
For user-generated repos, the default path/URL is .*/fdroid/repo, with
fdroid/ as the root where the 'fdroid' tool operates. This makes for a URL
that is quite unique and easily matched automatically using patterns, like
in fdroidclient.
For those who don't like the standard, they can override the errror from
config.py using nonstandardwebroot = True
This is quite simple, but makes the user experience consistent when setting
up repos: run init then update locally, then run init then update on the
server.
This patch also includes PEP8 formatting fixes
