It is a feature request. I want to run script every time Tiki-Manager does something. I want to address the following use cases: 1. Send xmpp message when backup, clone and cloneupgrade fails 2. Encrypt the backup files 3. Copy backup to somewhere else using other tools The Git, Certbot and Zabbix have an interesting approach: they have a folder where the user can add scripts to be invoked after doing something. Certbot has the folders `/etc/letsencrypt/renewal-hooks/{deploy,post,pre}`, where the user can set scripts to run before and after getting a certificate. A bare Git repository has the `hooks` folder, where the user can set scripts to process commits being pushed. Zabbix has the folder `/usr/lib/zabbix/{externalscripts,alertscripts}`, where the user can set scripts to run everytime zabbix wants to notify a problem. How I imagine: 1. Add the folder hooks to Tiki-Manager; ``` tiki-manager ├── hooks └── ... ``` 2. Create a script ``` tiki-manager ├── hooks │   └── post-instance-backup.sh └── ... ``` ```shell #!/bin/bash # ./tiki-manager/hooks/post-instance-backup.sh # Tiki-Manager provides the instance ID and the created backup file path in the # stdin, one information per line, equivalent as shown below # # { # echo "5"; # echo "example.com"; # echo "5-example.com/archive/5-example.com_2021-04-29_00-06-56.tar.bz2"; # } | ./post-instance-backup.sh # # Tiki-Manager would also forward the environment variables, so variables like # below would be available in this script. # * ${CACHE_FOLDER} # * ${CONFIG_FOLDER} # * ${TEMP_FOLDER} # * ${RSYNC_FOLDER} # * ${MOUNT_FOLDER} # * ${BACKUP_FOLDER} # * ${ARCHIVE_FOLDER} # * ${SCRIPTS_FOLDER} # * ${TRIM_LOGS} # * ${TRIM_DATA} # * ${SSH_CONFIG} # * ${TRIM_SRC_FOLDER} S3_BACKUP_FOLDER=s3://example.com/tiki-manager/backup/ read instance_id; read instance_name; read backup_rel_path; backup_abs_path="${BACKUP_FOLDER}/${backup_rel_path}" backup_filename=$(basename "${backup_rel_path}") aws s3 cp "${backup_abs_path}" "${S3_BACKUP_FOLDER}" aws s3 ls s3://example.com/tiki-manager/backup/ | grep "${backup_filename}" test "$?" = "0" || mail -s "[${HOST}] Error copying ${backup_filename} to S3" monitoring@example.com <<EOF The file '${backup_abs_path}' was not copied to ${S3_BACKUP_FOLDER} because of an error not identified. EOF ``` Almost every command would have a pre/post script to be called | Tiki-Manager Command | pre command script | post command script | |----------------------------|-----------------------------------|------------------------------------| | backups:delete | pre-backups-delete.sh | post-backups-delete.sh | | backups:setup | pre-backups-setup.sh | post-backups-setup.sh | | cache:clear | pre-cache-clear.sh | post-cache-clear.sh | | database:delete | pre-database-delete.sh | post-database-delete.sh | | database:view | pre-database-view.sh | post-database-view.sh | | instance:access | pre-instance-access.sh | post-instance-access.sh | | instance:backup | pre-instance-backup.sh | post-instance-backup.sh | | instance:blank | pre-instance-blank.sh | post-instance-blank.sh | | instance:check | pre-instance-check.sh | post-instance-check.sh | | instance:clone | pre-instance-clone.sh | post-instance-clone.sh | | instance:cloneandupgrade | pre-instance-cloneandupgrade.sh | post-instance-cloneandupgrade.sh | | instance:console | pre-instance-console.sh | post-instance-console.sh | | instance:copysshkey | pre-instance-copysshkey.sh | post-instance-copysshkey.sh | | instance:create | pre-instance-create.sh | post-instance-create.sh | | instance:delete | pre-instance-delete.sh | post-instance-delete.sh | | instance:detect | pre-instance-detect.sh | post-instance-detect.sh | | instance:edit | pre-instance-edit.sh | post-instance-edit.sh | | instance:fixpermissions | pre-instance-fixpermissions.sh | post-instance-fixpermissions.sh | | instance:import | pre-instance-import.sh | post-instance-import.sh | | instance:list | pre-instance-list.sh | post-instance-list.sh | | instance:maintenance | pre-instance-maintenance.sh | post-instance-maintenance.sh | | instance:profile | pre-instance-profile.sh | post-instance-profile.sh | | instance:restore | pre-instance-restore.sh | post-instance-restore.sh | | instance:stats | pre-instance-stats.sh | post-instance-stats.sh | | instance:update | pre-instance-update.sh | post-instance-update.sh | | instance:upgrade | pre-instance-upgrade.sh | post-instance-upgrade.sh | | instance:verify | pre-instance-verify.sh | post-instance-verify.sh | | instance:watch | pre-instance-watch.sh | post-instance-watch.sh | | logs:clear | pre-logs-clear.sh | post-logs-clear.sh | | manager:check | pre-manager-check.sh | post-manager-check.sh | | manager:info | pre-manager-info.sh | post-manager-info.sh | | manager:report | pre-manager-report.sh | post-manager-report.sh | | manager:reset | pre-manager-reset.sh | post-manager-reset.sh | | manager:setup | pre-manager-setup.sh | post-manager-setup.sh | | manager:update | pre-manager-update.sh | post-manager-update.sh | | setup:clone | pre-setup-clone.sh | post-setup-clone.sh | | tiki:versions | pre-tiki-versions.sh | post-tiki-versions.sh | | webmanager:block | pre-webmanager-block.sh | post-webmanager-block.sh | | webmanager:enable | pre-webmanager-enable.sh | post-webmanager-enable.sh |
