create_task.py:
- Remove dead make_client() call before the verify branch; it was called
unconditionally with host=None/key=None, creating a broken client that was
immediately discarded or overwritten.
- Remove "verify" from the dispatch dict; it was never reached through dispatch
(the if/cmd==verify branch above it handled it). Dispatch now only contains
commands that actually use a client.
- Wrap json.load() in try/except (OSError, JSONDecodeError) so a corrupt or
partially-written status file produces a useful message instead of a traceback.
sitecustomize.py:
- Call _record_status() on the early-return paths in both _patch_b2 and
_patch_restic. Without this, if TrueNAS natively supports B2 or the patch
is already applied, the status file was never written and `verify` always
reported failure even when everything was fine.
- Add idempotency guard to _record_status(): first call wins; duplicate calls
for the same module are ignored so the entry count stays accurate.
- Make B2 get_restic_config a @staticmethod. The method never used self; the
noqa comment was suppressing the evidence of a design mismatch. Removing the
unused parameter makes the intent explicit.
- Add NamedTuple._replace() fallback after dataclasses.replace() in the restic
wrapper. If ResticConfig is ever refactored to a NamedTuple, the TypeError
from dataclasses.replace() would have surfaced as a backup job failure rather
than a graceful recovery.
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.
install.sh: running install.sh after a recover.sh left /data/truecloud-patch/disabled
in place, so apply.sh silently skipped all patching and middlewared restarted
without the patch. Clear the kill switch file before running apply.sh.
uninstall.sh: midclt initshutdownscript.delete was unguarded under set -euo pipefail,
so a delete failure (already-removed entry, transient API error) aborted the script
before sitecustomize.py was cleaned up or /data/truecloud-patch/ was removed. Now
guarded with an if/else that warns and continues.
sitecustomize.py: move importlib.machinery/.util imports inside the if block in
find_spec so they only execute when intercepting our two target modules, not on
every module import across the whole process. In _install(), import os before
importlib.util so the kill switch check (cheap) runs before the importlib import
(slightly heavier on first use). Remove the unused orig variable in _patch_restic.
patch_ui.py: add explicit encoding="utf-8" to both open() calls. errors="replace"
on read so malformed bytes in a bundle don't silently skip a candidate file.
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.
sitecustomize.py: exec_module was calling importlib.util.find_spec(fullname)
after Python had already added the module to sys.modules. find_spec
short-circuits to sys.modules[name].__spec__, which is our own wrapper spec,
so real_spec.loader.exec_module(module) immediately called exec_module again
— infinite recursion. Fix: resolve the real file spec in find_spec (before
sys.modules is populated) and store it on the Loader. exec_module now uses
the stored spec directly with no find_spec call.
Also move _mark_done into the finally block so a module that fails to load
doesn't trigger infinite retry loops on subsequent import attempts.
apply.sh: warn() writes to stdout. Inside $(find_mw_python), stdout is
captured by the command substitution, so any warn() call folded its text
into $PYTHON — causing every subsequent "$PYTHON" invocation to fail. Fix:
emit the fallback warning to stderr (>&2) so it goes to the log without
being captured.
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.
