@ -8,11 +8,13 @@ order they will be implemented.
These items are listed more or less in the order they need to be completed, as
they generally depend on the items previous to them.
### Cross Compilation
### Window Support + GUI
Currently the only supported OS/CPU is Linux/amd64. This can be expanded
_theoretically_ quite easily, using nix's cross compilation tools. First target
should be OSX/arm64, but windows would also be quite the get.
Support for Windows is a must. This requirement also includes a simple GUI,
which would essentially act as a thin layer on top of `daemon.yml` to start
with.
Depending on difficulty level, OSX support might be added at this stage as well.
### NATS
@ -35,14 +37,6 @@ requiring a passphrase.
Most likely this integration will require NATS as well, to coordinate cache
invalidation and cert refreshing.
### Web server + interface
Have every `isle daemon` run a webserver as one of its sub-processes. Status and
connectivity information for the local host could be provided via a simple web
interface, which the user can open in their browser. This saves us the effort of
needing to develop UIs for individual OSs. This could also make remotely
debugging hosts easier for admins.
### Invitation code bootstrapping

@ -99,15 +93,14 @@ It should theoretically be possible for the internal network IP range to be on
IPv6 rather than IPv4. This may be a simple matter of just testing it to confirm
it works.
### DNS resolver settings
### Proper Linux Packages
The daemon should update the resolver settings of the host, so that it
automatically serves DNS queries, unless set to not do so in `daemon.yml`.
### Install sub-command
It would be great to have a `isle install` sub-command which would
auto-detect the installed operating system and install the daemon automatically.
Rather than distributing raw binaries for Linux we should instead be
distributing actual packages, e.g. deb files for debian/ubuntu, PKGBUILD for
arch, rpm for fedora (if we care), etc... This will allow for properly setting
capabilities for the binary at install time, so that it can be run as non-root,
and installing any necessary `.desktop` files so that it can be run as a GUI
application.
### Mobile app

This is how the tests work. Doing this with other OS's will depend on how they
work.
### DNS/Firewall Configuration
Ideally Isle could detect the DNS/firewall subsystems being used on a per-OS
basis and configure them as needed. This would be simplify necessary
documentation and setup steps for operators.
### Plugins
It would not be difficult to spec out a plugin system using nix commands.
