Description

One might also want to create starup scripts for it. Examples below
/etc/conf.d/oscam
OSCAMD_OPTIONS="-c /home/oscam/ -t /tmp/oscam/ -d 3 -r 2 -b"
/etc/init.d/oscam
#!/sbin/runscript
depend() {
need localmount
}
start() {
ebegin "Starting Oscam"
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/bin/oscam/ -- ${OSCAMD_OPTIONS} #2>/dev/null
eend $?
}
stop() {
ebegin "Stopping Oscam"
kill `pidof oscam`
sleep 1
eend $?
}
before I forget ebuild would not work with stable version of oscam as recently with http://streamboard.gmc.to:8001/changeset/7076 that particular commit and few others along the way the build setup have changed. Therefore it should work with live versions from 7076 onwards Please do note that live ebuilds are not supposed to be available unmasked, so unless you also provide a standard release ebuild, I don't think it's worth adding anywhere. Also I would suggest you to: - check newbin command instead of cp & dobin; - man pages should always be installed no matter on the USE flags; - to handle separate READER/PROTOCOLS you need new variables declared in profiles; unless they add external dependencies or are absolutely enormous you might want to limit to disabling a few of them and not all one-by-one; - the nomirror restriction is wrong in combination with live ebuilds; is it that bad legally to redistribute it? - the init script needs to be installed as part of the ebuild, but the one you're attaching is not really correct (don't use --quiet, use s-s-d to stop as well as start, ...); - you probably need to set up an user for this, and should not use /home or /tmp (unless it's really temporary files — /run is there for the pid files and so on); @ Diego Thank You for the pointers. Yes I know the live ebuilds are not to be included on their own, but I provided it here to share it for someone else interested. I have started with oscam while it was at revision 6608 which is using same build system as the stable 1.10 but I never used stable because of number of the features present in svn the therefore I am not sure would it work but I place what I have here after bit of checking As far as the ebuild itself is concerned I am no guru and I did what I can and know about the portage requirements and placed it here exactly for the matter of review - RESTRICT="nomirror" is not required AFAIK. It is lefover from the other ebuild I used to have it as a basis for this one. - when I provided the number of readers and protocols I knew exaclty that this is not what portage system likes the most, but this was the only way for the ebuild to set it up that it takes advantage of modular build system. This is important as using only protocols/readers/features one needs makes the binary smaller and more stable. I do not know any other way especially when all are used for different purposes - I know init scripts should be different that is why I didn't place them in the attachment just in the comment as example which does work for me. I would gladly fix it just do not have the appropriate know how. - new user I have never set up so didn't place it in the ebuild which in the way I have it done probably would mean just a security breach or something ;). To sumarize I did think about creating user, proper init scirpts and so on but myself I run 4 separate instances of the oscam each for different card with different protocol and options and I did not know how to handle it without farther manual intervention anyway but ebuild helped me greatly with all the compilation hastle I see what I can do but I do not promise anything as my voodoo simply is nearing the end on this one... There is a layman overlay, gbin that has an ebuild for oscam-9999. Maybe you can 'update' that one, (current url is wrong, should be oscam.to and maybe update useflags)? :) Created attachment 329610 [details] oscam-9999.ebuild I took this opportunity when oscam build enviroment changed again with this commit http://www.streamboard.tv/oscam/changeset/7919 and have made several changes to the ebuild as stated by Diego and got some ideas from gbin overlay ebuild, but some more work is still nedded. For instance I need a help with moving the stuff out of USE to modules just like it is done for example with "CAMERAS" for libgphoto2. I looked at that libgphoto2 ebuild quite closely and I do not know what am I doing wrong, but my stuff still shows up as regular use flags. Hints and Ideas are welcome ;) Created attachment 329612 [details, diff]
oscam-7218_csp_logging.patch
This patch keeps log size in the sane level while using extended cache protocol from oscam. I tested it first with the oscam revision 7218 and same patch works for it till now
Created attachment 329614 [details, diff]
oscam-7929_no_debug.patch
I am not 100% sure this patch is nedded, but with it my builds get smaller a bit even when without it oscam ebuild uses properly CFLAGS from the make.conf
Created attachment 337900 [details]
oscam-9999.ebuild
few additions to the oscam code has been made, this ebuild reflects that
PS Still need to learn how to move that stuff out of USE flags...
Created attachment 337902 [details, diff]
oscam-8282_csp_logging.patch
recently the code in ocsam.c has been divided into several parts and 7218 CSP logging fix no longer applied. Here is new version. This patch should work for quite a few oscam revisions prior to 8282 as well
Created attachment 516320 [details]
oscam-9999.ebuild
Over the years there has been quite a few changes in oscam. Hence the most recent one of them involves change to the created binary name the previous ebuild no longer works.
I still do not know how to change some of those use flags into module flags, but ebuild squeezes just about anything out of oscam what it has to offer for users.
Created attachment 516322 [details, diff]
oscam-2017_1107_csp_logging.patch
patch silences quite a few unessential logs for those using cashex protocol
Created attachment 516324 [details, diff] oscam-2018_0123_emu.patch Patch is taken from https://github.com/oscam-emu/oscam-emu and emulates few protocols for those interested in educating in content security Created attachment 516326 [details, diff]
oscam-2017_1107_no_debug.patch
removes debug flag from the CFLAGS
Created attachment 516328 [details, diff]
oscam-2017_1107_no_invalid_logging.patch
For those zapping through the channels even those one has no option to view over time the number of invalid ECMs in logs can be larger than excepted. To save space one may use this patch.
