sitecustomize.py: _patch_restic no longer reimplements get_restic_config.
It now wraps the original: calls _orig(cloud_backup) to get a ResticConfig,
then post-processes only the -r argument to fix "b2:/bucket" → "b2:bucket"
when the URL contains a stray leading slash (the stock bug for empty-hostname
providers). Uses dataclasses.replace() to build the corrected result so new
ResticConfig fields added in future TrueNAS versions pass through unchanged.
This eliminates the transfer_setting gap, env dict mutation, and frozen-copy
drift that would occur over time.
Also adds a status file mechanism: sitecustomize.py writes
/data/truecloud-patch/hook_status.json atomically after both patches have
reported success or failure. This gives a machine-readable signal that the
hook fired correctly — without requiring log scraping.
create_task.py: new "verify" subcommand reads the status file and prints a
human-readable summary. Does not require --host or --api-key. --host and
--api-key are now optional at the parser level and validated only for
subcommands that actually need an API connection.
README: update troubleshooting to use "create_task.py verify" instead of
the manual Python introspection one-liner.
If the patch ever prevents middlewared from starting, users now have a
clear escape hatch that requires no knowledge of Python internals:
bash /data/truecloud-patch/recover.sh
Or at a bare shell prompt:
touch /data/truecloud-patch/disabled
systemctl restart middlewared
sitecustomize.py checks for /data/truecloud-patch/disabled at Python
startup and skips the import hook entirely when the file exists.
apply.sh does the same so the PREINIT script also does nothing on reboot.
recover.sh is copied to /data/truecloud-patch/ by install.sh so it is
available even without the original repo directory.
README gains an "Emergency recovery" section above Troubleshooting.
Patches middlewared at runtime via sitecustomize.py (no file edits to /usr/)
and widens the UI credential dropdown from Storj-only to S3+B2+Storj.
Persists across TrueNAS updates via PREINIT initshutdownscript stored in DB.
