Tool descriptions were leaking internal vocabulary (Django superuser,
Postgres bcrypt update, htpasswd in protectionauth.yml, gitea admin
user change-password CLI, trusted_domains list, …) and repeating the
label as a full sentence. Beginners don't care, and even experienced
users don't need the CLI name to know what a button does.
Rewrites every tool description to a single short sentence plain
enough that a first-time installer can read it without context.
Conventions applied across the board:
- One sentence, sentence-case
- Plain English: "Set a new password", "Add a new user",
"Permanently remove a user", "List every user"
- "Leave blank to generate one" only where it's actually useful
(password fields), and matches the field placeholder text
- No CLI names, no schema field names, no internal file paths
- Destructive actions stop saying "permanently" twice (the action
label + the confirm modal already cover that)
- Field placeholders harmonised: "Leave blank for random" /
"Leave blank to generate" → consistently "Leave blank to generate"
Touched files (descriptions only — no logic, no fields removed):

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

Sweep of every containers/<app>/<app>.sh after the install-side fix that
went into config_file_setup_data.sh — these were the same class of bug:
bare `sudo sed -i` / `sudo docker exec` calls left over from when the
manager carried NOPASSWD:ALL. After the rootless+de-sudo hardening (Model
A, sudoers scoped to LP_HELPERS + LP_SYSTEM only) those calls fail at
runtime, so every per-app routine that uses one would refuse on install
or in its post-install tweak step.
Each call routes through the existing `runFileOp` shim, which picks the
right path per CFG_DOCKER_INSTALL_TYPE (dockerinstall in rootless, manager
in rootful) — same pattern setup_dns.sh / authelia.sh / config_file_setup_data.sh
already use.
Fixed:
gitea.sh:65 — sync GITEA_METRICS_TOKEN into prometheus-scrape.yml
owncloud.sh:88 — fill OWNCLOUD_SETUP_* in the setup-webform html
searxng.sh:87 — flip simple_style: auto → CFG_SEARXNG_THEME
trilium.sh:89 — rewrite trilium-data/config.ini port=
bookstack.sh:139 — bookstack:create-admin via `docker exec`
bookstack.sh:148 — admin@admin.com cleanup via `docker exec ... tinker`
`bash -n` clean on every touched file. Untested live (none of these apps
are installed on the verify VM) but mechanically equivalent to the
already-validated config_file_setup_data.sh fix.

The hardcoded uid:gid in libreportal.backup.files labels was brittle: matched the
default PUID in the compose, but a PUID change (or new image version) would drift
silently and the next restore would chown to a stale owner. Make it impossible to
drift by letting the engine learn the uid at capture time.
backup_files.sh:
- After a successful tar capture, run `stat -c '%u:%g'` inside the container and
write the result to a <host_subdir>.lp-owner sidecar in staging. The sidecar
rides in the snapshot alongside the captured tree.
- Restore reads it back when the descriptor doesn't pin uid:gid; falls back to
0:0 with a clear notice if missing.
- The 5-field form (with explicit uid:gid) is still supported as an override; it
wins and skips the sidecar write entirely.
Update all 4 current labels to the new 3-field form
"<container>:<container_path>:<host_subdir>" (nextcloud, bookstack, gitea,
owncloud). Engine handles both formats during the transition.
Verified with stubs: 3-field capture writes the sidecar with the discovered
33:33; restore reads it back; 5-field override correctly skips the sidecar
write. backup_files.sh parses.

Three closeouts in one pass:
1. DEVELOPMENT.md — consolidated hook-conventions table covering all 8 per-app
hook types (tools / update-specifics / compose-tags / webui-refresh / the two
traefik markers / the two network-provider hooks). One place to look instead
of inferring from the codebase.
2. Nextcloud APCu wired alongside Redis: appUpdateSpecifics_nextcloud now sets
memcache.local=\OC\Memcache\APCu too (was deferred from the fpm switch). APCu
= cheap in-process cache; the fpm-alpine image ships the extension. CLI mode
may emit a harmless "no memory cache" notice on `occ` runs — Nextcloud is
graceful, the FPM worker still uses APCu fine.
3. Container-side file-capture rollout to 3 confident cases:
- bookstack: lscr.io/linuxserver/bookstack with PUID=1000 → /config (1000:1000)
- gitea: gitea/gitea with USER_UID=1000 → /data (1000:1000)
- owncloud: owncloud/server (Apache/PHP) → /mnt/data (33:33, www-data)
Snapshots are now complete for these (the dir's excluded from the raw restic
pass and captured live through the container as a tar → libreportal-owned
staging, same proven pattern as Nextcloud). Less-evidenced candidates left
for live verification: linkding, mastodon, jellyfin, trilium, focalboard,
invidious, vaultwarden, headscale-service — each needs its in-container uid
confirmed before labeling (wrong uid won't break backup, but restore would
chown to the wrong owner).

Each app now carries everything under containers/<app>/: Tools-tab actions in
tools/ (declaration <app>.tools.json + function <app>_<tool_id>.sh) and logic
helpers in scripts/ (e.g. <app>_auth.sh). The container scan live-sources every
.sh under the app (maxdepth 3, prunes only resources/) and webui_tools.sh
auto-merges the .tools.json, so an app is a true drop-in — no central edit, no
array regen.
- Empty the central webui_tools.sh heredoc; all 34 tools across 11 apps now
come from per-app declarations (verified byte-identical to the old output).
- Retire the orphaned mattermost tool scripts to scripts/unused (there is no
containers/mattermost; its install fn already lived in unused).
- Update the dispatch comment/error path, the auth-adapter doc, and
DEVELOPMENT.md to the new convention.
- Regenerate static arrays (files_app.sh no longer lists app/containers/*).

Adds CFG_<APP>_BACKUP_STRATEGY (default auto) so an app's backup strategy can
be overridden from its Advanced config tab, taking precedence over the global
default. Added to the 10 live-capable apps, so the dropdown's 'live' option only
appears where it actually works.
- backupResolveStrategy now checks the per-app override before the global value.
- backupAppLiveCapable / backupAppStrategyOptions expose capability + the valid
option set; predicate helpers hardened with explicit returns so they behave
identically with or without shell errexit.
- BACKUP_STRATEGY field mapping (select, advanced) renders the dropdown.

- Add libreportal.backup.db labels to the MariaDB/Postgres apps (nextcloud,
owncloud, bookstack, mastodon, invidious) so they back up live + consistent.
- If a declared dump cannot be taken (DB down, wrong path), the backup falls
back to stop-snapshot-start for that run instead of snapshotting torn data —
a misconfiguration degrades to 'safe with downtime', never to 'unsafe'.

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.

Replace the static one-host-per-app model with per-port routers: each
Traefik-managed port carries a subdomain (12-col PORT format) and gets a
DOMAINSUBNAME_TAG_<n> host, so one container can serve unlimited hosts.
tagsProcessorPortSubdomains stamps per-port hosts (subdomain @/empty = apex,
multi-level allowed); tagsProcessorPortRouterBlocks comments out
# TRAEFIK_PORT_<n>_BEGIN/END blocks for non-Traefik ports so unfilled
placeholders never ship (mirrors GLUETUN_OFF). Convert all 27 router apps
(subdomains seeded from HOST_NAME; headscale admin. prefix -> subdomain).
