Create workflow to build and release pre-built binaries:
- Triggers on git tags (v*) or manual dispatch
- Builds cm-dashboard and cm-dashboard-agent for Linux x86_64
- Creates Gitea release with attached binary files
- Provides tarball for easy distribution
This enables switching from source builds to pre-built binaries
in NixOS configuration for faster rebuilds.
Redirect nixos-rebuild stdout/stderr to /var/log/cm-dashboard/nixos-rebuild.log
while keeping the process detached. This allows monitoring rebuild progress
and debugging why cargo builds in /tmp aren't visible when agent runs.
Use: tail -f /var/log/cm-dashboard/nixos-rebuild.log to monitor progress.
Run nixos-rebuild with nohup in background to prevent the agent
from killing itself during system rebuild. The rebuild process
now runs independently, allowing the agent to return success
immediately and avoid crashes during binary updates.
This fixes the issue where agent would crash during rebuild
and restart with the old binary due to missing daemon-reload.
- Remove Config field completely from NixOS section
- Build: now shows NixOS system hash (from /run/current-system)
- Agent: shows cm-dashboard package hash (first 8 chars)
Build and Agent now display different hashes as intended.
Make dashboard -V show the same hash as the agent by extracting
the hash from the dashboard binary's nix store path instead of
the system configuration path. Now both will show identical
hashes since they're from the same cm-dashboard package.
Replace hardcoded version with first 8 characters of current system's
nix store hash. This makes it easy to verify when rebuilds complete
as the hash changes with each deployment.
No fallback - fails hard if config hash cannot be determined.
- Replace git commit hash with nix store hash extraction
- Read from /run/current-system symlink target
- Extract first 8 characters of nix store hash: d8ivwiar

- Extend connection timeout to 5 minutes for hosts undergoing rebuild
- Prevent host switching during rebuild operations
- Update status bar to show rebuild progress immediately when R key pressed
Fixes kernel namespace sandboxing issues when running as systemd service.
The --no-sandbox flag disables Nix build sandboxing which requires
kernel namespaces not available in restricted service environments.
Remove sudo -u cm wrapper that was causing git repository ownership
mismatch. Now cm-agent runs nixos-rebuild directly as root, avoiding
the ownership conflict between cm-agent (git clone) and cm user.
Updated sudo rules to allow cm-agent -> root nixos-rebuild access.
Use explicit /run/current-system/sw/bin/nixos-rebuild path instead of
'nixos-rebuild' command to match sudo rules exactly. This resolves
'command not allowed' errors when the command resolves to nix store paths.
- Add nixos_config_api_key_file option to NixOS configuration
- Support reading API token from file for private repositories
- Automatically inject token into HTTPS URLs (https://token@host/repo.git)
- Graceful fallback to original URL if key file missing/empty
- Default key file location: /var/lib/cm-dashboard/git-api-key
Usage: echo 'your-api-token' | sudo tee /var/lib/cm-dashboard/git-api-key
Replace generic hourglass with specific arrows:
- ↑ (up) for starting services
- ↓ (down) for stopping services
- ↻ (circular) for restarting services
Provides immediate visual feedback for service operations.
Replace direct directory access with git clone/pull approach:
- Add git configuration options (url, branch, working_dir) to NixOS module
- Update SystemConfig and AgentCommand to use git parameters
- Implement ensure_git_repository() method for clone/pull operations
- Agent clones nixosbox to /var/lib/cm-dashboard/nixos-config
- Maintains security while solving permission denied issues
The agent now manages its own copy of the configuration without
needing access to /home/cm directory.
- Change Space key toggle to 's' for start and 'S' for stop
- Remove problematic service status detection logic
- Update statusbar shortcuts to show S/Shift+S instead of Space
- Split UiCommand::ServiceStartStop into ServiceStart and ServiceStop
- Simplify command handling with explicit actions
This resolves the toggle bug where Space always sent start commands
regardless of current service status.
- Implement proper service status checking for start/stop toggle
- Space key now checks current service status and toggles appropriately
- Active services get stopped, inactive services get started
- Fix nixos-rebuild sudo permissions (remove invalid package reference)
- Use only /run/current-system/sw/bin/nixos-rebuild path
- Add sudo permissions for systemctl and nixos-rebuild commands
- Use sudo in agent command execution for proper privileges
- Fix backup collector to handle missing status files gracefully
- Eliminate backup error spam when no backup system is configured
This implements the core functionality for executing remote commands through
the dashboard and providing real-time visual feedback to users.
Key Features:
- Remote service control (start/stop/restart) via existing keyboard shortcuts
- System rebuild command with maintenance mode integration
- Real-time visual feedback with service status transitions
- ZMQ command protocol extension for service and system operations
Implementation Details:
- Extended AgentCommand enum with ServiceControl and SystemRebuild variants
- Added agent-side handlers for systemctl and nixos-rebuild execution
- Implemented command status tracking system for visual feedback
- Enhanced services widget to show progress states (⏳ restarting)
- Integrated command execution with existing keyboard navigation
Keyboard Controls:
- Services Panel: Space (start/stop), R (restart)
- System Panel: R (nixos-rebuild switch)
- Backup Panel: B (trigger backup)
Technical Architecture:
- Command flow: UI → Dashboard → ZMQ → Agent → systemctl/nixos-rebuild
- Status tracking: InProgress/Success/Failed states with visual indicators
- Maintenance mode: Automatic /tmp/cm-maintenance file management
- Service feedback: Icon transitions (● → ⏳ → ● with status text)
- Mark keyboard navigation and service management as completed
- Document all implemented navigation controls and features
- Update current status to reflect working build display
- Replace old future priorities with actual service management tasks
- Add focus-aware selection and visual feedback documentation
Status Icon Color Preservation:
- Preserve original status icon colors (green ● for active, red ● for failed)
- Apply selection highlighting only to service text, not status icons
- Maintain visual health indicators while showing selection state
Focus-Aware Selection Display:
- Only show selection highlighting when Services panel is focused
- Hide selection bar when user switches to System or Backup panels
- Provides clean UI when not actively managing services
Selection Visual Behavior:
- Status icon: Original color (green/red/yellow) with blue background
- Service text: Blue background with black text for clear selection indication
- Unfocused state: All services display normally without selection artifacts
This creates optimal UX where status health information is always visible
and selection highlighting only appears when relevant for user interaction.
Selection Behavior Improvements:
- Limit selection to parent services only (docker, nginx, postgresql, etc.)
- Skip sub-services in navigation (no longer select nginx sub-sites)
- Up/Down arrows now move between actionable services only
Visual Enhancement:
- Preserve original status colors in selection highlighting
- Selected services show blue background with status foreground colors
- Green text for active services, red for failed, even when selected
- Maintains visual health status information during selection
Selection Logic:
- Add parent service index mapping for accurate selection tracking
- Only count parent services in total service count
- Calculate proper parent service index from display line position
- Ensure selection highlights only apply to parent services
This creates a cleaner UX where users only select services they can
actually control (start/stop/restart) while maintaining visual health
status indicators through preserved status colors.
Visual Highlighting Fixes:
- Apply selection highlighting to individual text spans instead of entire paragraph
- Eliminates highlighting of empty space below services on single-service hosts
- Selection now only highlights actual service text content
Selection Logic Improvements:
- Add proper bounds checking in select_next() to prevent invalid selections
- Automatically clamp selection index when services are updated
- Add debug logging to track selection state and movement
Bounds Safety:
- Ensure selection index stays valid when service lists change
- Prevent out-of-bounds access during service updates
- Reset selection to last valid index when services are removed
This fixes the issues where:
1. Single service hosts showed empty space highlighting
2. Multi-service hosts had no visible selection cursor
3. Selection could become invalid when services changed
Service Selection Features:
- Add selection cursor for Services panel with visual highlighting
- Up/Down arrows move service selection instead of scrolling
- Track selected service for future action implementation
- Selection state maintained per host
Panel Navigation Improvements:
- Fix panel switching to only cycle through visible panels
- Dynamic panel list based on backup data availability
- Smart recovery when focused panel becomes invisible
- No more navigation to hidden backup panel
Backup Panel Scrolling Fix:
- Fix backup panel scroll to show actual repository content
- Replace static overflow indicator with proper scroll behavior
- Add scroll position indicators (above/below)
- Show all repositories when scrolling instead of truncated list
Navigation now works correctly with actual UI layout and
provides proper service selection for future action implementation.
- Remove Network panel from navigation cycle
- Fix system panel scrolling to work in both directions
- Add complete scroll support to Services and Backup panels
- Update panel cycling to System → Services → Backup only
- Enhance scroll indicators with proper bounds checking
- Clean up unused Network panel code and references
Resolves issues with non-functional up/down scrolling and
mystery network panel appearing during navigation.
