## gen-dockerfile Tool

All containers are built using the **gen-dockerfile** tool (`bin/gen-dockerfile` in casjay-dotfiles). It generates standardised Dockerfiles, `.env.scripts`, workflow YAML, `pkmgr` scripts, and `rootfs/` scaffolding.

### Usage

```bash
gen-dockerfile [options] [template] [Dockerfile]
gen-dockerfile --dir ./myapp alpine
gen-dockerfile --dir ./myapp --nginx --tag 1.25
gen-dockerfile --dir ./existing-project --update
gen-dockerfile --dir ./myapp actions
```

### Templates (positional argument or `--template`)

| Template | Description | Base image |
|----------|-------------|------------|
| `alpine` | Default Alpine Linux (default) | `casjaysdev/alpine` |
| `arch` / `archlinux` | Arch Linux | `menci/archlinuxarm` |
| `debian` | Debian | `debian` |
| `ubuntu` | Ubuntu | `ubuntu` |
| `rhel` / `almalinux` / `rockylinux` / `centos` | AlmaLinux/RHEL family | `almalinux` |
| `web` | Alpine + xorg + x11-apps | scratch/web template |
| `xorg` | Alpine + xorg | xorg template |
| `scratch` | Scratch-based | scratch template |

### CLI Flags

| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--dir <path>` | Working directory (default: `$PWD`) |
| `--template <name>` | Override template type |
| `--registry <url>` | Registry provider URL (e.g. `https://docker.io`) |
| `--org <[git\|reg:]name>` | Override org/namespace — prefix `git:` or `reg:` to scope to one system, bare value sets both |
| `--user <[git\|reg:]name>` | Alias for `--org` |
| `--repo <[git\|reg:]name>` | Override repo/image name — same scope prefix rules |
| `--tag <version>` | Image version tag (default: `latest`) |
| `--add-tags <tags>` | Comma-separated additional tags (or `USE_DATE` for auto date tag) |
| `--distro-name <image>` | Base image pull URL (overrides `ENV_PULL_URL`) |
| `--distro-version <tag>` | Base image tag (overrides `ENV_DISTRO_TAG`) |
| `--startup` | Create a container start script only |
| `--nogit` | Skip `git init` in the new project dir |
| `--dockerfile` | Regenerate Dockerfile only — skip other files |
| `--update` | Re-run gen-dockerfile on an existing project to regenerate files |
| `--init` | Init mode |
| `--x11` | Enable X11/xorg support |
| `--ports <ports>` | Additional EXPOSE ports |
| `--pkmgr` | Generate `pkmgr` script only and exit |
| `--apache` | Add Apache2 packages + setup |
| `--nginx` | Add nginx packages + setup |
| `--mysql` / `--mariadb` | Add MariaDB packages + setup |
| `--postgres` | Add PostgreSQL packages + setup |
| `--php` | Add PHP packages + setup |
| `--application <name>` | Add a templatemgr application install step |
| `--alpine` / `--almalinux` / `--archlinux` / `--debian` / `--ubuntu` | Shortcut distro flags |
| `--force` | Overwrite existing files without prompting |
| `--silent` | Suppress non-error output |
| `--debug` | Enable `set -x` tracing |
| `--no-color` | Disable colour output |

### Special Subcommands

```bash
gen-dockerfile --dir ./myapp actions
```

Creates `.gitea/workflows/build.yml` (or `build.$version.yml` for versioned tags) from the existing `Dockerfile`. The example workflow in `.github/example/.gitea/workflows/docker.yaml` is the canonical reference pattern for the legacy hand-written style; `gen-dockerfile actions` generates `build.yml` with the same structure.

### Template Resolution

Templates are loaded from the first match:

1. `$GEN_DOCKERFILE_CONFIG_DIR/templates/<name>.template` (user override)
2. `$CASJAYSDEVDIR/templates/dockerfiles/<name>.template` (installed scripts tree)

`template_options.source` is sourced after `__set_variables` runs, allowing template-specific variable overrides.

---

## `.env.scripts` File

Generated at project root; sourced by gen-dockerfile and by the CI workflow at build time.

### Legacy Variable Auto-Migration

`gen-dockerfile --update` (and on every run) calls `__migrate_env_script` which automatically renames old variable names to the current ones. Old names that are no longer used:

| Old Name | Current Name |
|----------|-------------|
| `ENV_IMAGE_NAME` | `ENV_REGISTRY_REPO` |
| `ENV_IMAGE_PUSH` | `ENV_REGISTRY_PUSH` |
| `ENV_HUB_BASE` | `ENV_REGISTRY_URL` |
| `ENV_ORG_NAME` | `ENV_REGISTRY_ORG` |

Never use the old names in new `.env.scripts` files.

---

## Entrypoint System

### Entrypoint Script Flow

```
/usr/local/bin/entrypoint.sh
├─ Load functions from /usr/local/etc/docker/functions/entrypoint.sh
├─ Set up environment variables (sources /root/env.sh, /usr/local/etc/docker/env/*.sh, /config/env/*.sh)
├─ Create /config and /data volumes
├─ Run ALL init scripts from /usr/local/etc/docker/init.d/ (sorted order) via __start_init_scripts
├─ Handle healthcheck command
└─ Execute main application
```

### Init.d Scripts — CRITICAL RULES

**Each service in a repo gets its own numbered init.d script. Never merge or remove them.**

- `__start_init_scripts` iterates and sources **every** `*.sh` file in `init.d/` in sort order.
- Multi-process repos have **one script per service**. Example for a repo running three daemons:
  ```
  init.d/01-named.sh     — BIND/named DNS server
  init.d/02-nginx.sh     — nginx web front-end
  init.d/03-php-fpm.sh   — PHP-FPM for web UI
  ```
- **Migration task = UPDATE each script to the canonical pattern, never delete services.**
- The canonical pattern is `.github/example/rootfs/usr/local/etc/docker/init.d/04-example.sh`.

### Required Variables in Every Init.d Script

```bash
SERVICE_NAME="myapp"           # used for PID files, log dirs, config dirs
EXEC_CMD_BIN='myapp'          # daemon binary (single-quoted — expanded later)
EXEC_CMD_ARGS=''               # daemon arguments (single-quoted)
EXEC_PRE_SCRIPT=''             # pre-start script (single-quoted)
SERVICE_USES_PID=''            # '' for long-running daemons; 'no' for config-only steps
IS_WEB_SERVER="no"             # 'yes' sets RESET_ENV and default port 80
IS_DATABASE_SERVICE="no"
USES_DATABASE_SERVICE="no"
DATABASE_SERVICE_TYPE="sqlite" # custom|sqlite|redis|postgres|mariadb|mysql|couchdb|mongodb|supabase
RUNAS_USER="root"
```

### Required Hook Functions in Every Init.d Script

All eight must be defined (even if they just `return 0`):

```bash
__run_precopy()              # runs before copying /config to /etc
__execute_prerun()           # runs before service starts
__run_pre_execute_checks()   # validation before exec; non-zero aborts start
__update_conf_files()        # update config files (sed replacements, etc.)
__pre_execute()              # final setup before exec
__post_execute()             # background post-start tasks
__pre_message()              # message to show before exec
__update_ssl_conf()          # SSL certificate setup
__create_service_env()       # generates /config/env/$SERVICE_NAME.sh template
__run_start_script()         # builds and runs the exec script
__run_secure_function()      # chmod 600 on credential files
```

### PID Sentinel Check (CRITICAL)

Every init.d script **must** guard on the correct sentinel file:

```bash
# Correct — dot prefix, no double underscore
if [ ! -f "/run/.start_init_scripts.pid" ]; then
  echo "__start_init_scripts function hasn't been Initialized" >&2
  SERVICE_IS_RUNNING="no"
  __script_exit 1
fi
```

The file is `/run/.start_init_scripts.pid` — a leading dot, no underscores in the filename portion. Any other form silently skips the guard.

### Directory Variables

```bash
DATA_DIR="/data/$SERVICE_NAME"         # persistent data
CONF_DIR="/config/$SERVICE_NAME"       # persistent config
ETC_DIR="/etc/$SERVICE_NAME"           # runtime etc (synced from CONF_DIR)
LOG_DIR="/data/logs/$SERVICE_NAME"     # logs
TMP_DIR="/tmp/$SERVICE_NAME"
RUN_DIR="/run/$SERVICE_NAME"
ROOT_FILE_PREFIX="/config/secure/auth/root"
USER_FILE_PREFIX="/config/secure/auth/user"
```

### Volume Mounts

- `/config` — Persistent configuration files
- `/data` — Persistent application data

`gen-dockerfile actions` regenerates this as `.gitea/workflows/build.yml` (or `build.$version.yml`) from the existing Dockerfile.

## Package Manager Wrapper (pkmgr)

The `pkmgr` script in `rootfs/usr/local/bin/pkmgr` provides a unified interface:

```bash
pkmgr update          # Update package lists
pkmgr install <pkg>   # Install packages
pkmgr remove <pkg>    # Remove packages
pkmgr clean           # Clean package cache
```

Automatically detects and uses the appropriate package manager (apk, apt-get, dnf, pacman).

## Development Workflow

### Creating a New Container

```bash
# 1. Generate scaffolding
gen-dockerfile --dir ./myapp alpine

# 2. Customise .env.scripts (set ENV_REGISTRY_REPO, ENV_REGISTRY_ORG, ports, etc.)

# 3. Customise setup scripts in rootfs/root/docker/setup/

# 4. Add init.d runtime script (copy from .github/example)

# 5. Build and test
docker build -t myapp .
docker run -it myapp

# 6. Commit and push to trigger CI/CD
```

### Updating an Existing Container

```bash
# Regenerate Dockerfile and related files from current .env.scripts
gen-dockerfile --dir ./myapp --update

# Regenerate workflow file only
gen-dockerfile --dir ./myapp actions
```

### Adding a New Container from Scratch

1. `gen-dockerfile --dir /path/to/new-container --nogit alpine`
2. Edit `.env.scripts` — set `ENV_REGISTRY_REPO`, `ENV_REGISTRY_PUSH`, `ENV_GIT_REPO_URL`
3. Copy `04-example.sh` from `.github/example/` as the starting point for init.d scripts
4. Add application-specific setup in `rootfs/root/docker/setup/05-custom.sh`
