Nextcloud upgrade hook

Bubbel · 2017-09-13 18:37:39

Anyone who has Nextcloud running, installed through pacman, has ran into the following issue:
Update Nextcloud, or a Nextcloud app and the Nextcloud installation itself needs to be updated. This can be done via the browser, but that is not that neat, I think.
The other way is to do the following:

sudo -u http /usr/bin/php /usr/share/webapps/nextcloud/occ upgrade

This, to me, is much better. Even more, since we can automate it, after Nextcloud, or a Nextcloud-app is updated or installed.
This is where alpm-hooks come into play.

Create a file, called:

/etc/pacman.d/hooks/nextcloud.hook

And write the following in it:

# Update Nextcloud when core or -apps are touched

[Trigger]
Operation = Install
Operation = Upgrade
Operation = Remove
Type = Package
Target = nextcloud
Target = nextcloud-app-*

[Action]
Description = Updating Nextcloud installation
When = PostTransaction
Exec = 'sudo -u http /usr/bin/php /usr/share/webapps/nextcloud/occ upgrade'

Maybe something to add to the Nextcloud package?

Open a flyspray if you haven't yet done so.

Euhh, what's a flyspray?

Update: Ahh, a bug report. Found it!
Well, I was reading the guid for issuing bugs, and I thought it is not a bug, so it does not belong there.

I'll file a report there.
