I need to make a script to upgrade my router without losing the configuration files and packages installed on the router.
I tried to repeat the same behavior of the interface in my script (I used the command sysupgrade) but I lost the config.
Besides, I have tried the upgrade with the interface with the option keep luci but it does not work too, I lost all the data router.
The command sysupgrade does not retain the configuration.
Is there anyone who offer me a solution?
Thank you in advance for your help.
You can use "Backup & Restore" feature from the webUI (luci) to save/load configuration files to/from you PC.

The Portal UI React application makes use of the Registry settings instead of a local settings.json file in order to run the application on the local environment.This is a pain for the developer because everytime a Registry is updated the system needs a restart which is not a advisable kind of approach in this fast moving development world. There is less flexibility and more dependency while using the Registry settings instead of a local json based configuration file.
I propose to move all the configuration files into local json file and checkout the file in the applications repository.
If there is any other approach which would make this easy to use scenario then pls share your thoughts.
Thanks

I am writing code that will be deployed to a server. Right now I have to upload the code each time I change it. Is there any way to edit the code live on the server in Visual Studio code?
As there are some extension in the editor who provide that function this can be done in VS Code very simple. Just search in extensions for Keyword 'FTP' ...
Two Examples:
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=humy2833.ftp-simple
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=lukasz-wronski.ftp-sync
Both are very popular.
At the moment I personally use FTP-Simple. But have a look on your own. It depends on the things you wonna do. And don't worry ... it's a little bit tricky at the beginning to figure out how to setup and how they work ... but when you are in it works fine.
It depends what hosting you are deploying to. You can SSH into your server with most providers and use a command line editor such as nano or vim. Keep in mind, this won't keep the version on your computer up to date and the changes will be overwritten if you redeploy. Alternatively, If you have a VPS and want to edit the files in an IDE on your local computer, maybe a file transfer system like FTP or SMB would work. I don't suggest it though, there are huge security issues with them.
For Azure web apps, I've found that the Azure plugin for VScode is a quick and easy way to deploy my app. It's not quite real time but it's very easy to redeploy after updating. https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/azure/extensions
This is what I use to connect remotely to a couple Raspberry Pis, and a home server.

When I run Keycloak, I'd like it to load my LDAP configuration (user federation) automatically when it is run, so I don't have to enter it manually. Is there any way to do this with Keycloak? I'm using the containerized version 7.0.0, if it matters. I am also running in standalone mode. Thanks
You should be able to create your realm from a template that has your LDAP configuration in it.
From what I understand from your question, you want to use LDAP as your user Federation server, so you should have an LDAP up and running before starting your Keycloak container, and the container should start with the LDAP configuration.. to do this, I'll suggest a method that is a bit cumbersome at first, but it will give you a better grasp on how to configure Keycloak in the future.
Start by downloading keycloak from the website and run it without putting it in a container.. set up your Realm, clients and everything apart from the LDAP configuration.
Copy the Keycloak.json file outside of the directory, we're going to use that later
Get back to your web interface, configure your LDAP server, and save the configuration.
Now copy the keycloak.json file again, and place both versions in a text comparison tool, Diffmerge for example, and see the difference in the configuration related to your LDAP, that should be added to your container's keycloak.json.
A good practice using keycloak container is to create your whole configuration, and replace the default one, this way your container will start every time with your Realms, clients and all other pre-configured attributes.
OK so I think I figured it out. In Keycloak I had to export the realm via the standalone.sh script as specified in the documentation. Using the kcadm.sh admin CLI did not export the whole realm. Then I could import the realm using the admin CLI later. Thanks for your help it lead me to this answer.
I am trying to get mercurial to work on a shared host without SSH access.
I have looked through https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/PublishingRepositories and seen different means to publish my repository to the web but not been able to get any method to work because of certain dependencies.
For example, I looked at hgweb, it says
"First of all, you need to have a Python installation that can access the mercurial package. Verify this by running python and typing the following:
import mercurial"
I havent worked with python before and as such not sure where to run the "import mercurial" command. i am guessing via ssh for which i do not have access.
Also came across SCM-Manager, the quick guide just talks about downloading the source and extracting the content to your server, SCM manager depends on java and also not sure how to get that to work over the web.
Which of hgweb, SCM-Manager and RhodeCode is possible to set up without ssh access?
Short Answer: NONE
But you can at least try, if you have Java Application Server running (Tomcat, GlassFish etc), run SCM-manager as Web application (*.war)
I want to know if it's possible and I'm looking for tutorials to set it up.
APE website says that knowledge of JavaScript programming is sufficent to follow the tutorial however I haven't been able to puzzle even the first 2 lines of the tutorial.
I'm using Ubuntu. After downloading APE I have no idea what to do. I already set up SSH to access the server.
What should be my following steps or where can I find an easier to tutorial to use comet be it through APE or something else?
Assuming your GoDaddy server is running some flavor of Linux, I don't see any reason it would not be possible. I was just looking over the documentation and I am not clear on what part you are having trouble with. What Linux distribution are you using? Do you have SSH access?
If you have ssh access and a root account you should be able to just follow the instructions to get APE running on the default port.
If you are running a Debian dist (Ubuntu and others) it looks like you should download the source from Git and compile it. There are instructions for the compilation there. You can learn about what you need to do wth Git by search for "clone git".
If you can be more specific about what you are having trouble with, we can probably be more helpful. But ultimately you should be able to install this on any dedicated server without issue.
