# Configuration file for Calamares # Syntax is YAML 1.2 --- # Modules can be job modules (with different interfaces) and QtWidgets view modules. # They could all be placed in a number of different paths. # "modules-search" is a list of strings, each of these can either be a full path to a # directory or the keyword "local". # "local" means LIBDIR/calamares/modules with settings in SHARE/calamares/modules or # /etc/calamares/modules. # YAML: list of strings. modules-search: [ local ] # Instances section. This section is optional, and it defines custom instances for # modules of any kind. An instance entry has an instance name, a module name, and # a configuration file name. # The primary goal of this mechanism is to allow loading multiple instances of the # same module, with different configuration. If you don't need this, the instances # section can safely be left empty. # Module name plus instance name makes an instance key, e.g. "webview@owncloud", # where "webview" is the module name (for the webview viewmodule) and "owncloud" # is the instance name, which loads a configuration file named "owncloud.conf" from # any of the configuration file paths, including the webview module directory. # This instance key can then be referenced in the sequence section. # For all modules without a custom instance specification, a default instance is # generated automatically by Calamares. Therefore a statement such as "webview" in # the sequence section automatically implies an instance key of "webview@webview" # even without explicitly defining this instance, and the configuration file for # this default instance "@" is always assumed to be # ".conf". # For more information on running module instances, run Calamares in debug mode # and check the Modules page in the Debug information interface. # YAML: list of maps of string:string key-value pairs. #instances: #- id: owncloud # module: webview # config: owncloud.conf # Sequence section. This section describes the sequence of modules, both # viewmodules and jobmodules, as they should appear and/or run. # A jobmodule instance key (or name) can only appear in an exec phase, whereas # a viewmodule instance key (or name) can appear in both exec and show phases. # There is no limit to the number of show or exec phases. However, the same module # instance key should not appear more than once per phase, and deployers should # take notice that the global storage structure is persistent throughout the # application lifetime, possibly influencing behavior across phases. # A show phase defines a sequence of viewmodules (and therefore pages). These # viewmodules can offer up jobs for the execution queue. # An exec phase displays a progress page (with brandable slideshow). This progress # page iterates over the modules listed in the *immediately preceding* show phase, # and enqueues their jobs, as well as any other jobs from jobmodules, in the order # defined in the current exec phase. # It then executes the job queue and clears it. If a viewmodule offers up a job # for execution, but the module name (or instance key) isn't listed in the # immediately following exec phase, this job will not be executed. # WARNING: when upgrading from Calamares 1.1, this section requires manual # intervention. There are no fixed prepare/install/postinstall phases any more, # and all limitations on the number of phases, number of pages, and number of # instances are lifted. # YAML: list of lists of strings. sequence: - show: - welcome - locale - keyboard - users # - netinstall - partition # - tracking - summary - exec: - partition - mount - pacstrap-base - pacstrap-gui # - unpackfs # - networkcfg # - packages - machineid - fstab - locale - keyboard - localecfg - luksbootkeyfile - luksopenswaphookcfg - initcpiocfg - initcpio - users - displaymanager - hwclock - services - grubcfg - bootloader - umount - show: - finished # A branding component is a directory, either in SHARE/calamares/branding or in # /etc/calamares/branding (the latter takes precedence). The directory must contain a # YAML file branding.desc which may reference additional resources (such as images) as # paths relative to the current directory. # A branding component can also ship a QML slideshow for execution pages, along with # translation files. # Only the name of the branding component (directory) should be specified here, Calamares # then takes care of finding it and loading the contents. # YAML: string. branding: parabola # If this is set to true, Calamares will show an "Are you sure?" prompt right before # each execution phase, i.e. at points of no return.
