How to use
Composer
then finally visit http://localhost/LineageOTA to see the REST Server up and running. Please note that this is only for a quick test, when you plan to use that type of setup for production (your users), make sure to also provide HTTPS support.
If you get anything else then a list of files, contained inside the
builds
directory, this means something is wrong in your environment. Double check it, before creating an issue report here.
Docker
then finally visit http://localhost/ to see the REST Server up and running.
The root URL (used to generate ROM URLs in the /api
endpoint) can be set using the LINEAGEOTA_BASE_PATH
variable.
Local Hosting
- Full builds should be uploaded into
builds/full
directory. - Delta builds should be uploaded into
builds/delta
directory.
ONLY for LineageOS 15.x and newer
If you are willing to use this project on top of your LineageOS 15.x ( or newer ) ROM builds, you may have noticed that the file named build.prop
have been removed inside your ZIP file, and has been instead integrated within your system.new.dat
file, which is basically an ext4 image ( you can find out more here: https://source.android.com/devices/tech/ota/block ).
In order to make use of this Server from now on, you MAY copy the build.prop
file from your build directory ( where your ROM is being built ), inside the same directory of your ZIP and name it like your ZIP file name + the .prop
extension.
For example, feel free to check this structure:
What happens if no build.prop file is found
The Server is able to serve the ZIP file via the API, also when a build.prop
file is not given, by fetching those missing informations elsewhere ( related always to that ZIP file ). Although, as it's a trial way, it may be incorrect so don't rely too much on it.
I am not sure how much this may help anyway, but this must be used as an extreme fallback scenario where you are not able to provide a build.prop
for any reason. Instead, please always consider to find a way to obtain the prop file, in order to deliver a proper API response.
Github Hosting
If you want to host your roms on Github you can put your repository names inside the github.json
file, like this example below:
Each line should point to a repository for a single device and have Github releases with attached files. At a minimum there should be the following files in each release:
- build.prop
- OTA release zip
- .md5sum list
The md5sum file contains a list of hash values for the the OTA zip as well as any other files you included in the release that need them. Each line of the md5sum should be of the format:
The filename should not contain any directory information.
You may also include a changelog file in html format. Note, any html file included in the release file list will be included as a changelog.
Disabling Local/Github Hosting
Both local and Github hosting features can be disable if they are not being used via the configuration file, in the root directory, called lineageota.json:
Setting either of these to true will disable the related hosting option.
Limiting Github Releases
With Github you may end up having many more releases than the updater really needs to know about, as such there are two options in the config file to let you control the number of releases that are returned:
MaxGithubReleaesPerRepo will limit the number of releases used on a per repo basis. Setting this to 0 or leaving it out of the config file will use all available releases in each repo.
OldestGithubRelease will exclude any released older than a given date from being available in the updater. This string value can be blank for all releases, or any compatible string, like "2021-01-01" or "60 days ago".
Caching
Both local builds and Github based builds can be cached to reduce disk and network traffic. By default, local caching is disabled and Github caching is enabled.
The default cache timeout is set to one day (86400 seconds).
You can change this via the configuration file, in the root directory, called lineageota.json:
This requires the webserver to have write access to the root directory. If you wish to force a refresh of the releases, simply delete the appropriate cache.json file.
Web Root Templates
In version 2.9 and prior, if a use visited the web root of the OTA server, they would be redirected to the builds folder. With the introduction of Github hosting, this is no longer a particularly useful destination as they may see no builds hosted locally, or incorrect ones if local hosting has been disabled and the local builds folder has not been cleaned up.
Releases after 2.9 now use a simple templating system to present a list of builds.
Four templates are included by default (ota-list-simple, ota-list-tables, ota-list-columns, ota-list-javascript) but you can create your own in the "views" folder to match your branding as required.
There are several configuration settings for temples as follows:
- OTAListTemplate: the name of the template to use, do not include the file extension.
- BrandName: the name of your ROM, if left empty brand name will be used from the OTA filename.
- LocalHomeURL: Homepage URL for local builds, used in the template file. If left empty https://otaserver/builds URL will be used.
- GithubHomeURL: Homepage URL for Github builds, used in the template file. If left empty the organization URL from any Github repos that are defined will be used.
- DeviceNames: A mapping array between device code names and their proper titles. Values: array( codename => title, ... )
- DeviceVendors: A mapping array between device code names and their vendor names. Values: array( codename => vendor, ... )
Included Templates:
- ota-list-simple: a simple header and list of files names, no additional details or links provided.
- ota-list-table: a page containing a seires of tables, one per device, that list in date order all builds for that device. Includes jump lists to find devices, links to local/github pages, dates, versions, md5sums, etc.
Twig is used as the templating language, see their documentation for more details.
The following variables are available for templates:
- builds: An array of builds available, each entry is an array that contains; incremental, api_level, url, timestamp, md5sum, changes, cahnnel, filename, romtype, datetime, version, id, size
- sortedBuilds: The builds array sorted by device name (array key is the device name, each value is as in the builds array)
- parsedFilenames: An array of filenames that have been parsed in to the following tokens; type, version, date, channel, code, model, signed
- deviceNames: An array of device names, each key is the code name, the value is the device name (ie )
- vendorNames: An array of device names, each key is the code name, the value is the vendor name (ie )
- devicesByVendor: A two dimensional array of devices by vendor (ie )
- branding: An array of branding info for the updates, contains; name, GithubURL, LocalURL
- formatedFileSizes: An array of human friendly file sizes for each release file, keyed on filenames (from the builds array), values as strings like "1.1 GB"
REST Server Unit Testing
Feel free to use this simple script made with NodeJS. Instructions are included.
ROM Integration
In order to integrate this REST Server within your ROM you have two possibilities: you can make use of the build.prop
( highly suggested ), or you can patch directly the android_packages_apps_CMUpdater
package ( not suggested ).
Before integrating, make sure your OTA Server answers from a public URL. Also, make sure to know which is your path.
For eg. if your URL is http://my.ota.uri/LineageOTA, then your API URL will be http://my.ota.uri/LineageOTA/api
Build.prop
CyanogenMod / LineageOS ( <= 14.x )
In order to integrate this in your CyanogenMod based ROM, you need to add the cm.updater.uri
property ( for CyanogenMod or Lineage ) in your build.prop
file. See this example:
As of e930cf7: Optional placeholders replaced at runtime: {device} - Device name {type} - Build type {incr} - Incremental version
LineageOS ( >= 15.x)
In order to integrate this in your LineageOS based ROM, you need to add the lineage.updater.uri
property in your build.prop
file. See this example:
Make always sure to provide a HTTPS based uri, otherwise the updater will reject to connect with your server! This is caused by the security policies newer versions of Android (at least 10+) include, as any app wanting to use non-secured connections must explicitly enable this during the compilation. The LineageOS Updater does not support that.
Since https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/191274/ is merged, the property
cm.updater.uri
is renamed tolineage.updater.uri
. Make sure to update your entry.As of 5252d60: Optional placeholders replaced at runtime: {device} - Device name {type} - Build type {incr} - Incremental version
android_packages_apps_CMUpdater
In order to integrate this in your CyanogenMod or LineageOS based ROM, you can patch the relative line inside the package.
Although this works ( and the position may change from release to release ), I personally do not suggest to use this practice as it will always require to override this through the manifest, or maintain the commits from the official repo to your fork.
Using the
build.prop
instead offers an easy and smooth integration, which could potentially be used even in local builds that make use fully of the official repos, but only updates through a local OTA REST Server. For example, by using the docker-lineage-cicd project.
