Finishes the installApp refactor started in d941f59 (Wave A). Every app
whose <app>.sh was either pure boilerplate (Wave B) or boilerplate +
small custom logic (Wave C) now routes through the generic driver in
scripts/app/install/app_install.sh; bespoke logic moved to declarative
hooks in containers/<app>/scripts/<app>_install_hooks.sh.
Net: ~4,000 lines of duplicated 10-step sequence gone. From 31 per-app
.sh files (pre-Wave-A) down to 2 intentional keepers.
DELETED outright (pure boilerplate — driver replaces them identically):
jellyfin, mastodon, focalboard, ipinfo, speedtest, dashy, invidious,
nextcloud, ollama, vaultwarden, pihole
DELETED + hook-extracted (small bespoke step preserved in a hook):
bookstack, moneyapp, owncloud, trilium, searxng, gitea, headscale,
unbound, prometheus, grafana, gluetun, wireguard, jitsimeet, authelia,
traefik, adguard, onlyoffice
KEPT (intentional special cases):
crowdsec — host-app pattern (no docker compose, runs as apt+
systemd via installCrowdsecHost; uninstall/stop/
restart hooks already live in this file and are
invoked by dockerUninstall/Stop/RestartApp directly).
libreportal — WebUI bootstrap. Pre-compose image build + post-install
webuiLibrePortalUpdate + bootstrap-time suppression of
menuShowFinalMessages don't fit the generic flow.
Driver change — scripts/app/install/app_install.sh:
Moved monitoringToggleAppConfig "$app_name" "docker-compose.yml" from
the post-start integrations block into the install body at post-compose
(right after dockerComposeSetupFile, before docker-compose up). The
toggle edits the compose file on disk — running it after start meant
the container had already been brought up with the unmodified compose,
so the metrics endpoint wouldn't reflect CFG_<APP>_MONITORING until
the next restart. Matches the original ordering in every per-app .sh
that used to call it inline.
Hook surface (declare-f-gated, silent no-op when absent):
<slug>_install_pre before any install work
<slug>_install_post_setup after dockerConfigSetupToContainer
<slug>_install_post_compose after dockerComposeSetupFile (+ the
shared monitoring toggle on the compose)
<slug>_install_post_start after dockerComposeUpdateAndStartApp
<slug>_install_message_data echoes extra argv for menuShowFinalMessages
<slug>_install_post very last thing, after the final message
+ the existing _uninstall_pre/_post, _stop_post, _restart_post
Notable extractions:
bookstack — _install_post_start: probe :PORT_1/login until 200/302,
then `bookstack:create-admin` inside the container with
CFG_BOOKSTACK_ADMIN_{EMAIL,PASSWORD}; falls back to the
seeded admin@admin.com on timeout.
adguard — _install_post_start drives the wizard's HTTP API
(POST /control/install/configure) so the admin doesn't
click through five pages, then pins the admin bind back
to 0.0.0.0:3000 (matches the compose mapping) and health
checks. _install_message_data echoes user/password to
menuShowFinalMessages.
authelia — _install_pre requirements; _install_post_compose copies
configuration.yml + users_database.yml, substitutes
theme/domain/host, generates JWT/session/storage secrets,
toggles monitoring on configuration.yml; _install_post_start
argon2-hashes the admin password via the container, writes
users_database.yml, restarts; _install_post echoes creds.
traefik — _install_pre prompts for the LE email if CFG_TRAEFIK_EMAIL
is unset; _install_post_compose copies static + dynamic
configs, wires CFG_TRAEFIK_DASHBOARD_ACCESS (local-only /
domain-only / public), toggles monitoring on traefik.yml,
then traefikUpdateWhitelist + traefikSetupLoginCredentials.
wireguard — _install_pre host-conflict guard (/etc/wireguard/params);
_install_post_compose persists CFG_WIREGUARD_SUBNET,
resolves WG_HOST (domain+traefik → host_setup, else IP),
runs runAppCfg wireguard-ip-forward; _install_post_start
restarts after wg-easy installs its iptables rules.
jitsimeet — _install_post_setup downloads the tagged release zip from
GitHub; _install_post_compose mass-edits the .env and runs
gen-passwords.sh; _install_post_start rewrites nginx
default site to usedport1/2 + restart.
prometheus — _install_post_compose seeds prometheus.yml under
$containers_dir/prometheus/prometheus/; _install_post_start
sets 0777 on storage dirs so the container TSDB can write
regardless of host UID mapping.
grafana — _install_pre requirements; _install_post_start 0777 on
grafana_storage.
gluetun — _install_post_start refreshes the provider snapshot,
reattaches every routed app (the netns container ID is
stale after gluetun gets recreated), then prompts to
onboard any existing apps.
+ the smaller bookstack-shape extractions for owncloud (version scrape),
trilium / searxng (wait-for-first-boot-config), gitea (Prometheus
bearer token sync), headscale / unbound (config copy), moneyapp
(Auth.js AUTH_URL), onlyoffice (compose-resolved user/pass into the
final message).
Manifest + arrays regenerated. Verified end-to-end:
- bash -n on every hook file + the driver: clean
- Each hook file sources cleanly in a subshell, exposes only the
intended functions, flagged lazy-loadable (not eager)
- Smoke-stubbed install run for jellyfin (pure), nextcloud (pure),
bookstack (hooked), crowdsec (kept): correct dispatch in all cases —
deleted apps route to installApp, kept apps still hit their real
function

Reinstall test on Debian 12 surfaced three rootless-only breakages (rooted
was byte-identical/fine):
1. pasta blocked by Debian's passt AppArmor profile (DENIED ptrace read ->
can't open container netns -> rootless dockerd never starts). Default
CFG_ROOTLESS_NET back to slirp4netns (reliable); pasta stays selectable
for hosts that relax the profile.
2. de-sudo mis-assigned helpers by owner. /docker management layer (apps DB
chowned to libreportal by install_sqlite, /docker/logs) is MANAGER-owned,
not dockerinstall. Add runInstallWrite; move apps-DB sqlite3 -> runInstallOp
and /docker/logs appends -> runInstallWrite. Revert ownership-SETUP scripts
(libreportal_folders, app_folder) to runSystem — they must run as root to
establish ownership during install. Container files (/docker/containers/<app>)
stay runFileOp.
3. kernel hardening sysctls written to /etc/sysctl/99-custom.conf, which
'sysctl --system' does not read -> never applied. Write them to
/etc/sysctl.d/99-libreportal-hardening.conf instead.

Every backup-scope app now carries CFG_<APP>_BACKUP_STRATEGY=auto, so the
Backup Strategy dropdown appears in each app's Advanced tab — not just the
DB apps.
To keep it honest, the 'live' option is hidden where it isn't safe:
- apps.json generator emits backup_live_capable per app (from compose backup
labels: a dumpable DB, or a live-safe marker).
- apps-manager filters the live option out of the strategy select when the
current app isn't live-capable, so apps like gitea/focalboard (a DB we don't
yet dump) never offer it.

The static per-app CFG_<APP>_HOST_NAME is gone. host_setup (the app's
canonical FQDN, feeding the legacy single DOMAINSUBNAME_DATA used by app env
vars, the app URL and trusted-domains) is now derived from the app's primary
Traefik port's subdomain: first recommended port, else first Traefik port;
@/root -> apex, set -> sub.domain, empty -> app-name. Removes HOST_NAME from
all app configs, the config-form field mapping (Hostname), the dead
headscale stub, and wireguard.sh (now uses host_setup). Completes the move to
dynamic per-port subdomain routing.
