-m
,--not_mandatory

arg
: Deprecated arg
Details:
This helper can be used both in a system backup hook, and in an app backup script
Details: ynh_backup writes SRC and the relative DEST into a CSV file. And it
creates the parent destination directory
If DEST is ended by a slash it complete this path with the basename of SRC.
Example in the context of a wordpress app
ynh_backup "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf"
# => This line will be added into CSV file
# "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf","apps/wordpress/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf"
ynh_backup "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf" "conf/nginx.conf"
# => "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf","apps/wordpress/conf/nginx.conf"
ynh_backup "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf" "conf/"
# => "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf","apps/wordpress/conf/$app.conf"
ynh_backup "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf" "conf"
# => "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf","apps/wordpress/conf"
#Deprecated usages (maintained for retro-compatibility)
ynh_backup "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf" "${backup_dir}/conf/nginx.conf"
# => "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf","apps/wordpress/conf/nginx.conf"
ynh_backup "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf" "/conf/"
# => "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf","apps/wordpress/conf/$app.conf"
How to use --is_big:
--is_big is used to specify that this part of the backup can be quite huge.
So, you don't want that your package does backup that part during ynh_backup_before_upgrade.
In the same way, an user may doesn't want to backup this big part of the app for
each of his backup. And so handle that part differently.
As this part of your backup may not be done, your restore script has to handle it.
In your restore script, use --not_mandatory with ynh_restore_file
As well in your remove script, you should not remove those data ! Or an user may end up with
a failed upgrade restoring an app without data anymore !
To have the benefit of --is_big while doing a backup, you can whether set the environement
variable BACKUP_CORE_ONLY to 1 (BACKUP_CORE_ONLY=1) before the backup command. It will affect
only that backup command.
Or set the config do_not_backup_data to 1 into the settings.yml of the app. This will affect
all backups for this app until the setting is removed.
Requires YunoHost version 2.4.0 or higher.
Requires YunoHost version 3.5.0 or higher for the argument --not_mandatory

Requires YunoHost version 2.6.4 or higher.
Dude, show me the code! [/details]
ynh_restore_file
[details summary="Restore a file or a directory" class="helper-card-subtitle text-muted"]
Usage: ynh_restore_file --origin_path=origin_path [--dest_path=dest_path] [--not_mandatory]
Arguments:
-
-o
,--origin_path=
: Path where was located the file or the directory before to be backuped or relative path to $YNH_CWD where it is located in the backup archive -
-d
,--dest_path=
: Path where restore the file or the dir, if unspecified, the destination will be ORIGIN_PATH or if the ORIGIN_PATH doesn't exist in the archive, the destination will be searched into backup.csv -
-m
,--not_mandatory
: Indicate that if the file is missing, the restore process can ignore it.
Examples:
-
ynh_restore_file "/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf"
-
You can also use relative paths:
-
ynh_restore_file "conf/nginx.conf"
Details:
Use the registered path in backup_list by ynh_backup to restore the file at
the right place.
If DEST_PATH already exists and is lighter than 500 Mo, a backup will be made in
/home/yunohost.conf/backup/. Otherwise, the existing file is removed.
if apps/wordpress/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf exists, restore it into
/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf
if no, search for a match in the csv (eg: conf/nginx.conf) and restore it into
/etc/nginx/conf.d/$domain.d/$app.conf

Note about the "failregex" option:
regex to match the password failure messages in the logfile. The
host must be matched by a group named "host". The tag "" can
be used for standard IP/hostname matching and is only an alias for
(?:::f{4,6}:)?(?P[\w-.^_]+)
You can find some more explainations about how to make a regex here :
https://www.fail2ban.org/wiki/index.php/MANUAL_0_8#Filters
Note that the logfile need to exist before to call this helper !!
To validate your regex you can test with this command:
fail2ban-regex /var/log/YOUR_LOG_FILE_PATH /etc/fail2ban/filter.d/YOUR_APP.conf

NODEJS
ynh_use_nodejs
[details summary="Load the version of node for an app, and set variables." class="helper-card-subtitle text-muted"]
Usage: ynh_use_nodejs
Details:
ynh_use_nodejs has to be used in any app scripts before using node for the first time.
This helper will provide alias and variables to use in your scripts.
To use npm or node, use the alias ynh\_npm
and ynh\_node
Those alias will use the correct version installed for the app
For example: use ynh\_npm install
instead of npm install
With sudo
or ynh\_exec\_as
, use instead the fallback variables $ynh\_npm
and $ynh\_node
And propagate $PATH to sudo with $ynh_node_load_PATH
Exemple: ynh\_exec\_as $app $ynh\_node\_load\_PATH $ynh\_npm install
$PATH contains the path of the requested version of node.
However, $PATH is duplicated into $node_PATH to outlast any manipulation of $PATH
You can use the variable $ynh\_node\_load\_PATH
to quickly load your node version
in $PATH for an usage into a separate script.
Exemple: $ynh_node_load_PATH $final_path/script_that_use_npm.sh</br></br>Finally, to start a nodejs service with the correct version, 2 solutions</br> Either the app is dependent of node or npm, but does not called it directly.</br> In such situation, you need to load PATH</br>
Environment="__NODE_ENV_PATH__"</br>
ExecStart=__FINALPATH__/my_app</br> You will replace \_\_NODE\_ENV\_PATH\_\_ with $ynh\_node\_load\_PATH</br></br>Or node start the app directly, then you don't need to load the PATH variable</br>
ExecStart=__YNH_NODE__ my_app run`
You will replace __YNH_NODE__ with $ynh_node
2 other variables are also available
- $nodejs_path: The absolute path to node binaries for the chosen version.
- $nodejs_version: Just the version number of node for this app. Stored as 'nodejs_version' in settings.yml.
Requires YunoHost version 2.7.12 or higher.

ynh_install_nodejs
[details summary="Install a specific version of nodejs" class="helper-card-subtitle text-muted"]
Usage: ynh_install_nodejs --nodejs_version=nodejs_version
Arguments:

,--nodejs_version=
: Version of node to install. When possible, your should prefer to use major version number (e.g. 8 instead of 8.10.0). The crontab will then handle the update of minor versions when needed.
Details:
ynh_install_nodejs will install the version of node provided as argument by using n.
n (Node version management) uses the PATH variable to store the path of the version of node it is going to use.
That's how it changes the version
Refer to ynh_use_nodejs for more information about available commands and variables

PERMISSION
ynh_permission_create
[details summary="Create a new permission for the app" class="helper-card-subtitle text-muted"]
Usage: ynh_permission_create --permission="permission" [--url="url"] [--additional_urls="second-url" [ "third-url" ]] [--auth_header=true|false] [--allowed=group1 [ group2 ]] [--label="label"] [--show_tile=true|false] [--protected=true|false] | Not that if 'show_tile' is enabled, this URL will be the URL of the tile. | Default is "APP_LABEL (permission name)". | Default is false (for the permission different than 'main'). | won't be able to add or remove the visitors group of this permission. | By default it's 'false'
Arguments:
-
-p,
: - the name for the permission (by default a permission named "main" already exist) -
-u,
: - (optional) URL for which access will be allowed/forbidden. -
-A,
: - (optional) List of additional URL for which access will be allowed/forbidden -
-h,
: - (optional) Define for the URL of this permission, if SSOwat pass the authentication header to the application. Default is true -
-a,
: - (optional) A list of group/user to allow for the permission -
-l,
: - (optional) Define a name for the permission. This label will be shown on the SSO and in the admin. -
-t,
: - (optional) Define if a tile will be shown in the SSO. If yes the name of the tile will be the 'label' parameter. -
-P,
: - (optional) Define if this permission is protected. If it is protected the administrator
Details:
example 1: ynh_permission_create --permission=admin --url=/admin --additional_urls=domain.tld/admin /superadmin --allowed=alice bob </br> --label="My app admin" --show_tile=true
This example will create a new permission permission with this following effect:
- A tile named "My app admin" in the SSO will be available for the users alice and bob. This tile will point to the relative url '/admin'.
- Only the user alice and bob will have the access to theses following url: /admin, domain.tld/admin, /superadmin
example 2: ynh_permission_create --permission=api --url=domain.tld/api --auth_header=false --allowed=visitors </br> --label="MyApp API" --protected=true
This example will create a new protected permission. So the admin won't be able to add/remove the visitors group of this permission.
In case of an API with need to be always public it avoid that the admin break anything.
With this permission all client will be allowed to access to the url 'domain.tld/api'.
Note that in this case no tile will be show on the SSO.
Note that the auth_header parameter is to 'false'. So no authentication header will be passed to the application.
Generally the API is requested by an application and enabling the auth_header has no advantage and could bring some issues in some case.
So in this case it's better to disable this option for all API.
If provided, 'url' or 'additional_urls' is assumed to be relative to the app domain/path if they
start with '/'. For example:
/ -> domain.tld/app
/admin -> domain.tld/app/admin
domain.tld/app/api -> domain.tld/app/api
'url' or 'additional_urls' can be treated as a PCRE (not lua) regex if it starts with "re:".
For example:
re:/api/[A-Z]$ -> domain.tld/app/api/[A-Z]</br> re:domain.tld/app/api/[A-Z]*
-> domain.tld/app/api/[A-Z]*$
Note that globally the parameter 'url' and 'additional_urls' are same. The only difference is:
- 'url' is only one url, 'additional_urls' can be a list of urls. There are no limitation of 'additional_urls'
- 'url' is used for the url of tile in the SSO (if enabled with the 'show_tile' parameter)
About the authentication header (auth_header parameter).
The SSO pass (by default) to the application theses following HTTP header (linked to the authenticated user) to the application:
- "Auth-User": username
- "Remote-User": username
- "Email": user email
Generally this feature is usefull to authenticate automatically the user in the application but in some case the application don't work with theses header and theses header need to be disabled to have the application to work correctly.

Or specify exactly the footprint, the load of the service as MB by pool instead of having a standard value. To have this value, use the following command and stress the service. watch -n0.5 ps -o user,cmd,%cpu,rss -u APP
Arguments:
-
-v
,--phpversion=
: Version of PHP to use. -
-t
,--use_template
: Use this helper in template mode. -
-p
,--package=
: Additionnal PHP packages to install -
-d
,--dedicated_service
: Use a dedicated PHP-FPM service instead of the common one. -
-v
,--phpversion=
: Version of PHP to use. -
-f
,--footprint=

-u
,--usage=

-p
,--package=

-d
,--dedicated_service
: Use a dedicated PHP-FPM service instead of the common one.
Details:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The footprint of the service will be used to defined the maximum footprint we can allow, which is half the maximum RAM.
So it will be used to defined 'pm.max_children'
A lower value for the footprint will allow more children for 'pm.max_children'. And so for
'pm.start_servers', 'pm.min_spare_servers' and 'pm.max_spare_servers' which are defined from the
value of 'pm.max_children'
NOTE: 'pm.max_children' can't exceed 4 times the number of processor's cores.
The usage value will defined the way php will handle the children for the pool.
A value set as 'low' will set the process manager to 'ondemand'. Children will start only if the
service is used, otherwise no child will stay alive. This config gives the lower footprint when the
service is idle. But will use more proc since it has to start a child as soon it's used.
Set as 'medium', the process manager will be at dynamic. If the service is idle, a number of children
equal to pm.min_spare_servers will stay alive. So the service can be quick to answer to any request.
The number of children can grow if needed. The footprint can stay low if the service is idle, but
not null. The impact on the proc is a little bit less than 'ondemand' as there's always a few
children already available.
Set as 'high', the process manager will be set at 'static'. There will be always as many children as
'pm.max_children', the footprint is important (but will be set as maximum a quarter of the maximum
RAM) but the impact on the proc is lower. The service will be quick to answer as there's always many
children ready to answer.
