Add host-level checks for address, enabled state, SSH credential
selection, and backup directory readiness, and show them on the host
detail page.
Create host backup directories during host creation and prefill new
hosts from the default global config.
Add a staff-only logs view backed by journalctl with filtering by
pobsync unit, priority, and message text.
Improve runtime checks for gunicorn in virtualenv installs and ensure
the native installer grants the service user access to the backup root.
Change the native installer to enable services and then explicitly
restart web, worker, and scheduler so updated Django code is loaded
after each install or update.
Document that the installer refreshes app files and restarts systemd
services as part of the normal update flow.
Add step-based installer logging that reports pobsync actions as OK,
FAILED, or SKIPPED while suppressing noisy apt, pip, Django, and
systemd output during successful runs.
Show the captured output for the failed step when something breaks,
and add a --verbose flag to restore full command output for debugging.
Document the quieter installer behavior and verbose mode in the README
and development notes.
Add an interactive setup flow to the systemd installer with defaults
for install paths, service identity, backup storage, bind address,
allowed hosts, CSRF origins, OS package installation, MariaDB support,
nginx setup, and first superuser creation.
Keep scripted installs supported through non-interactive mode, existing
overrides, environment variables, and explicit superuser flags.
Print a user-facing completion summary with the control panel URL,
Self Check reminder, first setup steps, and useful service log commands.
Teach the systemd installer to install required Debian/Ubuntu
packages by default, with an opt-out for users who manage system
dependencies themselves.
Add explicit MariaDB install-extra handling so native installs can
pull in both the Python extra and required client build packages.
Slim down the README to production setup and operations, and move
development, Docker, migration helper, and architecture notes into
docs/development.md.
Expand the systemd installer so it can perform a complete native
installation with sensible defaults: copy the checkout into the target
app directory, create runtime directories, write the environment file,
install dependencies, configure systemd units, and optionally configure
nginx.
Add a staff-only Django self-check page that verifies runtime settings,
required binaries, writable paths, database connectivity, global config
state, and systemd service status when available.
Document installer overrides and expose the self-check from the main
navigation.
Make native systemd services the recommended production path for
pobsync while keeping Docker Compose available for development and
optional test installs.
Add web, worker, and scheduler systemd unit templates, a native
environment example, an optional nginx reverse proxy template, and an
installer that creates the venv, service user, env file, units, and
runs migrations/static collection.
Allow native deployments to configure POBSYNC_BACKUP_ROOT directly and
document the new production layout and update flow.
Run the Django control panel with Gunicorn instead of the development
runserver and serve static files through WhiteNoise.
Add restart policies, healthchecks, .env-driven production settings, and
a sample .env file for single-server deployments. Update the Docker
entrypoint to collect static assets and document the remote server
deployment and update flow in the README.
Add a Django admin-backed management layer for pobsync configs, runs,
snapshots, and schedules. Keep the existing CLI engine as the execution
source of truth, add import/run management commands, and provide SQLite
default plus optional MariaDB Docker Compose support.
