Gigaquads Installer

Keygen-style Ansible deployment installer framework. Build interactive deployment UIs with a retro demoscene aesthetic — starfield backgrounds, neon glow effects, chiptune audio, and live terminal output.

Features

• Pygame-based visual installer with cracktro/keygen aesthetic
• Screen wizard: splash → host config → component selection → deploy → results
• Live Ansible playbook execution with per-component progress tracking
• Host reachability probing and per-component host targeting
• Chiptune audio engine (PSQ) with song sequencer
• Configurable theme, components, and screen flow

Quick Start

pip install gigaquads-installer

from gigaquads_installer import InstallerApp, InstallerConfig

config = InstallerConfig(
    project_name="myproject",
    project_title="My Project Installer",
    splash_logo="M Y P R O J E C T",
    splash_credits=":::   My Project — Deployment System   :::",
    public_deploy_dir="../myproject-deploy",
    host_groups=["myproject_core", "myproject_gpu"],
    components=[
        {
            "id": "api",
            "label": "API Server",
            "description": "FastAPI backend",
            "tag": "api",
            "host_groups": ["myproject_core"],
            "port": 8000,
        },
        {
            "id": "worker",
            "label": "Worker",
            "description": "Background job processor",
            "tag": "worker",
            "host_groups": ["myproject_gpu"],
        },
    ],
)

app = InstallerApp(config)
app.run()

Configuration

InstallerConfig fields:

Components

Each component is a dict:

{
    "id": "api",              # Unique identifier and Ansible tag
    "label": "API Server",    # Display name
    "description": "...",     # Short description
    "tag": "api",             # Ansible tag (usually same as id)
    "host_groups": ["core"],  # Which inventory groups can run this
    "port": 8000,             # Optional — shown in UI
}

Custom Screens

Override any built-in screen by passing screen_classes:

from gigaquads_installer.screens.splash import SplashScreen

class MySplash(SplashScreen):
    def draw(self, surface):
        # custom drawing
        super().draw(surface)

app = InstallerApp(config, screen_classes={"splash": MySplash})

PSQ Audio Engine

The PSQ (Programmable Sound sQuencer) is a chiptune audio engine included with the framework. It provides oscillator-based synthesis, ADSR envelopes, and a JSON song format.

Requirements

• Python 3.11+
• pygame-ce >= 2.4
• PyYAML >= 6.0
• Ansible (must be installed on the system for deployment)
• PortAudio (system library, for audio — sudo apt install libportaudio2)
