Installation for internet-connected systems may come from the NoSQL Boster IDE for MongoDB product's [\"Downloads\" page](https://nosqlbooster.com/downloads). Alternately:\n\n* Sites whose installation-targets won't be able to reach the NoSQL Boster IDE for MongoDB product's \"Downloads\" page will need to self-host copies of the desired content.\n* Sites that wish to use a specific version of the NoSQL Boster IDE for MongoDB will need to target that content\n\nTargeting specific versions of the NoSQL Boster IDE for MongoDB or local copies of the install-archives can be directed to do so by adding appropriate content to the formula's associated Pillar-data (see this projct's [pillar.example](pillar.example) file for guidance).\n\n\n## Available states\n\n- [nosql-booster](#nosql-booster)\n- [nosql-booster.clean](#nosql-booster.clean)\n- [nosql-booster.package](#nosql-booster.package)\n- [nosql-booster.package.clean](#nosql-booster.package.clean)\n- [nosql-booster.config](#nosql-booster.config)\n- [nosql-booster.config.clean](#nosql-booster.config.clean)\n\n### nosql-booster\n\nExecutes the `package` and `config` states to install and configure the NoSQL Boster IDE for MongoDB\n\n### nosql-booster.clean\n\nExecutes the `package` and `config` states' `clean` actions to fully uninstall the NoSQL Boster IDE for MongoDB and remove previously-installed browser policy-configs (and, on Windows, associated registry entries)\n\n### nosql-booster.package\n\nExecutes _just_ the `package` state to install the NoSQL Boster IDE for MongoDB package.\n\n### nosql-booster.package.clean\n\nExecutes _just_ the `package.clean` state to uninstall the NoSQL Boster IDE for MongoDB package.\n\n### nosql-booster.config\n\nExecutes _just_ the `config` state to install/configure the NoSQL Boster IDE for MongoDB client-configuration (etc.) files\n\n### nosql-booster.config.clean\n\nExecutes _just_ the `config` state to uninstall the NoSQL Boster IDE for MongoDB client-configuration (etc.) files and, on Windows, remove any registry-keys set by prior install-runs of the formula.\n\n## Compatibility Notes:\n\n*  The site's Pillar's `nosql-booster:lookup:pkg:download_uri`[^3] parameter's value is the URI that this formula should attempt to download the NoSQL Booster setup-file or installation-archive from.\n*  The site's Pillar's `nosql-booster:lookup:pkg:download_sig`[^3] parameter's value is calculated by performing\n\n    ```bash\n    curl -L \u003cDOWNLOAD_URI\u003e | \\\n    sha256sum | \\\n    awk '{ print \"sha256=\" $1 }'\n    ```\n\n\n\n\n### Linux:\n\n1.  When launching from a terminal session's interactive shell, the `nosqlbooster` command may emit informational messages like:\n    ```bash\n    $ nosqlbooster\n    (node:1838) electron: The default of contextIsolation is deprecated and will be changing from false to true in a future release of Electron.  See https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/23506 for more information\n    $\n    ```\n    These are generally innocuous\n1.  A successful launch on a freshely-built instance will produce a window like:\n    \u003cimg src=\"/docs/images/NoSQLBooster-SplashPage-RHEL9.png\"\u003e\n\n### Windows:\n\n1.  Due to peculiarities in the Windows setup/installer EXE, it was necessary to work around those issues by leveraging filesystem-junctions. The use of filesystem-junctions ensure that the installer places files in the desired directory (default: `C:\\Program Files\\NoSQLBooster`; see [`.../default.yaml`](nosql-booster/parameters/defaults.yaml) or [`pillar.example`](pillar.example) for more information) for override-options). However, the result of this workaround is that registry-entries need to be modified after the setup/installer EXE finishes its execution. This adds the further requirement that a site's Pillar payload need also include an associated GUID for the requested installer-download.\n1.  To get the GUID-value mentioned in the prior list-entry:\n\n    1.   Execute the target version of the setup.EXE\n    1.   Execute the following PS snippet:\n\n            ```\n                $path = \"Registry::HKEY_USERS\\S-1-5-18\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Uninstall\"\n                Get-ChildItem -Path $path | Get-ItemProperty |\n                    Where-Object { $_.DisplayName -like \"*NoSQLBooster*\" } |\n                    Select-Object DisplayName, PSChildName\n            ```\n\n    1.   The preceding will produce two, labeled columns of output like:\n\n            ```\n                DisplayName                     PSChildName\n                -----------                     -----------\n                NoSQLBooster for MongoDB 10.1.7 {227bc20d-e19b-5c52-9f1d-31ef30b24843}\n            ```\n\n    The target GUID-value is in the `PSChildName` column. This will be the value to set for the site's Pillar's `nosql-booster:lookup:pkg:reg_guid` parameter.\n1.  The automation will update the system's `PATH` env, add a launcher-icon on _new_ users[^4] desktops and add a launcher-icon to the system's `Start` menu\n\n\n[^1]: As of this README's writing, only Enterprise Linux and related distros (Red Hat and Oracle Enterprise, CentOS Stream, Rocky and Alma Linux). It has only been specifically tested with EL **_9_** variants.\n[^2]: As of this README's writing, this functionality has only been tested on Windows Server 2022\n[^3]: The `nosql-booster:lookup:pkg:download_uri` and `nosql-booster:lookup:pkg:download_sig` are per-platform values. Ensure that the site's Pillar-file uses platform-keyed entries.\n[^4]: It's anticipated that this automation will be run _prior_ to the creations of application-users. Any users created before this formula is run may not receive the mentioned icon-updates. If any such users need and are missing these icons, their absence can be fixed by running a short PowerShell script like:\n    ```\n    # Define targeted users\n    $targetUsers = @(\"\u003cUSER_1\u003e\", \"\u003cUSER_2\u003e\", ... \"\u003cUSER_N\u003e\")\n    \n    # Source paths from global locations\n    $srcD = \"C:\\Users\\Public\\Desktop\\NoSQLBooster for MongoDB.lnk\"\n    $srcS = \"C:\\ProgramData\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Start Menu\\Programs\\\" +\n            \"NoSQLBooster for MongoDB.lnk\"\n    \n    foreach ($user in $targetUsers) {\n        $uPath = \"C:\\Users\\$user\"\n        \n        if (Test-Path $uPath) {\n            Write-Host \"Processing user: $user\" -ForegroundColor Cyan\n            \n            # Target Desktop\n            $dstD = Join-Path $uPath \"Desktop\\NoSQLBooster for MongoDB.lnk\"\n            if (Test-Path $srcD) {\n                Copy-Item $srcD $dstD -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue\n            }\n    \n            # Target Start Menu\n            $sm = \"AppData\\Roaming\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Start Menu\\Programs\"\n            $dstS = Join-Path $uPath \"$sm\\NoSQLBooster for MongoDB.lnk\"\n            if (Test-Path $srcS) {\n                Copy-Item $srcS $dstS -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue\n            }\n        } else {\n            Write-Warning \"Profile not found for user: $user\"\n        }\n    }\n    ```\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fplus3it%2Fnosql-booster-formula","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fplus3it%2Fnosql-booster-formula","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fplus3it%2Fnosql-booster-formula/lists"}
