Packages

Definitions for packages that can be built as .deb. Packages with the same name as an existing component (e.g. metadata-exporter) are meant to extend the existing package contents and configuration.

Contents

  • leds-apu - a kernel module to control the LED status on an APU v1
  • metadata-exporter - updated packaging information and utilities for kristrev/data-exporter
  • mf910-switcher - a script to mode switch ZTE MF910 modems
  • monroe-experiments - a cron job to setup the MONROE network namespace and continuous experiments
  • munin-plugins-monroe - small scripts to extend munin-c with MONROE sensors
  • network-test - a script to test cloning interfaces into the MONROE network namespace
  • read_rx_tx - a utility to read rx tx values from interfaces
  • sysevent - a script to send node events to the metadata exporter
  • tuptime - uptime and downtime statistics, from rfrail3/tuptime
  • xtables-addons-cgroup - precompiled iptables cgroup plugin

Extending an existing package

Copy the folder contents ($FOLDERNAME) into the expanded package ($PKGNAME)

dpkg -x $PKGNAME.deb pkg
dpkg --control $PKGNAME.deb pkg/DEBIAN
cp -a $FOLDERNAME pkg/
