Project to create a working DEB package for BABELD to use on EdgeMax RouterX (firmware v 2.x only)

Tested on

• Edgerotuer X
• Edgerotuer X SFP

Usage

To Install

• Copy deb file over to device
• SSH into the device
• install deb using sudo dpkg -i <file.deb>

Presist across firmware upgrades

• Install post-install script (source: https://github.com/britannic/install-edgeos-packages)

cd /tmp
sudo mkdir -p  /config/scripts/pre-config.d
cat <<"EOF"> install-pkgs
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# UniFi Security Gateways and EdgeOS Package Updater
# This script checks /config/data/install-packages/ for downloaded
# packages and installs any that aren't installed
#
# Author: Neil Beadle


downloads=/config/data/install-packages

cd $downloads

for pkg in *; do
  dpkg-query -W --showformat='${Status}\n' \
  $(dpkg --info "${pkg}" | \
  grep "Package: " | \
  awk -F' ' '{ print $NF}') > /dev/null 2>&1 || dpkg -i ${pkg}
done

cd -
EOF
sudo install -o root -g root -m 0755 install-pkgs /config/scripts/pre-config.d/install-pkgs
rm -rf install-pkgs
sudo mkdir  -p /config/data/install-packages

• Copy deb package into folder sudo cp <file.deb> /config/data/install-packages

TODO

• Create basic VyOS config
• Create init.d files
• Package into working DEB
• Presist across firmware upgrade
• Presist config across upgrades
• Remove config on delete
