Stages

Stages are defined as a YAML file. The schema for it is available under stages_schema.yml. The following shows an example of such a file:

stages:
  - stage: Bootloader Selection
    timeout_s: 15
    check:
      file: 0.png
      mse_leq: 0.1
      ssim_geq: 0.99
    actions:
      - keyboard_key:
          value: up
          duration_s: 0.25
      - keyboard_key:
          value: ret
          duration_s: 0.25
  - stage: Installation Started
    timeout_s: 600
    check:
      file: 1.png
      mse_leq: 0.1
      ssim_geq: 0.99
  - stage: Installation Complete
    timeout_s: 600
    check:
      file: 2.png
      mse_leq: 0.1
      ssim_geq: 0.99
    actions:

          duration_s: 0.25
      - keyboard_key:
          value: ret
          duration_s: 0.25
  - stage: Enter LUKS Password
    timeout_s: 600
    check:
      file: 3.png
      mse_leq: 0.1
      ssim_geq: 0.99
    actions:
      - keyboard_text:
          value: something
          duration_s: 0.25
      - keyboard_key:
          value: ret
          duration_s: 0.25

Building the pip-Package

To build the pip package run:

python3 -m build

The output is then available inside the dist/ directory.

pre-commit

Before committing you have to run pre-commit to check for linting and type errors. For this first install pre-commit.

dnf install pre-commit
pre-commit install

To run pre-commit manually run:

pre-commit run --all-files
