Description
Currently ue-rs is a single command-line tool to fetch sysext OEM images, verify signatures, etc. That is sufficient for status of proof-of-concepts for quick implementation.
Ideally that should be split into separate server and client, where they communicate via DBus with each other. That is already done by the production update_engine.
What the server part basically should do:
- Set up a DBus service upon initialization.
- Get a bus as well as a DBus proxy.
- Request a DBus name.
- Register a DBus object.
- Run a scheduler for running periodic update checks.
- Run into a main loop listening for requests.
- Clean up the DBus service upon exit.
What the client part basically should do:
- Get a bus as well as a DBus proxy.
- Send a DBus request
AttemptUpdate
to the server to trigger update activities.
Rust-native DBus communication could be implemented by using crates like zbus. See also a reference implementation busd.
