Plugin Repository for Finit

Finit Plugin Repository

This repository is for external plugins not part of mainline Finit.

Note: contributions to this repo are expected to follow the coding style of 1) an existing plugin, or 2) coding style of Finit. It is also expected that contributions are tested against the latest release of Finit, or current mainline. Please describe your changes, or what a new plugin does (code is not self documenting) in the PR and also describe how you have verified the change or tested a new plugin.

Finit v4.4, and later, is required for these plugins. Earlier versions of Finit did not export all required header files. Loading of external plugins is supported as of Finit v4.4 from (in order) /usr/lib/finit and /usr/local/lib/finit. This in addition to the main search path for native plugins (/lib/finit).

Build & Install

This assumes Finit header files are installed in /usr/include/finit.

./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install

The build system is based on GNU autotools so it honors the DESTDIR environment variable.

Notice

The plugins used to depend on an optional Finit plugin called mdevd.so, this has been replaced in upstream Finit with two .conf lines:

service [S12345789] cgroup.system notify:s6 @root:root mdevd -O 4 -D %n -- Extended Hotplug Daemon (mdevd)
task [S] <service/mdevd/ready> @root:root mdevd-coldplug -- Replaying hotplug events to mdevd

Any services that today are plugins and depend on mdevd should be started as plain services instead. With an additional condition to ensure they are started after mdevd, e.g.

service [S12345789] <service/mdevd/ready> ...

All boiler-plate files, e.g., build system files, are copyright free and in the public domain. Each plugin, however, is copyright the respective author(s), and they are all licensed under the same MIT license as Finit, due to runtime linking.

warnings during compile

When building, I'm getting these warnings.... anyway I can clear it up?
