Good morning

I tried to create a package for installing the Insomnia program (https://insomnia.rest/downloadThis can be installed via a portable application or with an application that installs in AppData (I was unable to complete the installation using this method)

I tried to base my work on the tis-bitwarden-portable package

Below is the setup.py file

Code: Select all

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from setuphelpers import *

app_bin = "Insomnia.Core-2023.5.8-portable.exe"
app_dir = makepath(programfiles32, "Insomnia")
app_bin_path = makepath(app_dir, app_bin)
processes_to_kill = ["Insomnia"]


def install():
    # Initializing variables
    package_version = control.version.split("-", 1)[0]
    bin_name = bin_name = glob.glob("Insomnia.Core-*.exe")[0]

    # Installing the package
    print("Installing: %s" % bin_name)
    if get_version_from_binary(app_bin_path) != package_version:
        killalltasks(processes_to_kill)
        if isdir(app_dir):
            remove_tree(app_dir)
        mkdirs(app_dir)
        print("Copying %s to %s " % (bin_name, app_bin_path))
        filecopyto(bin_name, app_bin_path)
        # remove_programs_menu_shortcut("Insomnia")

        # Adding this package to the "list-registry"
        register_windows_uninstall(control)  # control is a PackageEntry object corresponding to this package
    else:
        print("%s portable version is already installed in the correct version" % "Insomnia")


def session_setup():
    # Initializing variables
    user_app_dir = makepath(application_data, "Insomnia")
    user_app_bin_path = makepath(user_app_dir, app_bin)

    # Installing the package in user env
    print("Installing: %s in user env" % "Insomnia")
    if get_version_from_binary(user_app_bin_path) != installed_softwares("Insomnia")[0]["version"]:
        killalltasks(processes_to_kill)
        if isdir(user_app_dir):
            remove_tree(user_app_dir)
        mkdirs(user_app_dir)
        print("Copying %s to %s " % (app_bin_path, user_app_bin_path))
        filecopyto(app_bin_path, user_app_bin_path)
        create_user_programs_menu_shortcut("Insomnia", user_app_bin_path)
    else:
        print("%s portable version in user env is already installed in the correct version" % "Insomnia")

def uninstall():
    # Uninstalling the package
    killalltasks(processes_to_kill)
    if isdir(app_dir):
        remove_tree(app_dir)
        unregister_uninstall("Insomnia")

However, during uninstallation, the application stored in AppData is not deleted...
And I have the impression that the session setup doesn't start after the application is installed; I have to force the session setup with `wapt-get session-setup -f ALL`

Can you help me improve my package?

Thank you all

Good morning,

Unless I'm mistaken, it seems that your "session_setup()" function is not being called anywhere.
The following should be done in the install() function so that it is called at the end of the installation.
Furthermore, the session_setup() function should be positioned before the install() function so that it is read first.

Code: Select all

def install():
    # Initializing variables
    package_version = control.version.split("-", 1)[0]
    bin_name = bin_name = glob.glob("Insomnia.Core-*.exe")[0]

    # Installing the package
    print("Installing: %s" % bin_name)
    if get_version_from_binary(app_bin_path) != package_version:
        killalltasks(processes_to_kill)
        if isdir(app_dir):
            remove_tree(app_dir)
        mkdirs(app_dir)
        print("Copying %s to %s " % (bin_name, app_bin_path))
        filecopyto(bin_name, app_bin_path)
        # remove_programs_menu_shortcut("Insomnia")

        # Adding this package to the "list-registry"
        register_windows_uninstall(control)  # control is a PackageEntry object corresponding to this package
    else:
        print("%s portable version is already installed in the correct version" % "Insomnia")
    session_setup()

Edit: I just realized my answer was irrelevant. My apologies.
Regards,

Actually, it's subtle...

After the installation of a package by the wapt service, the SERVICE Wapt will launch a session setup in all open sessions.
However, if you run a wapt-get install tis-insmonia, then the command line does not launch the session-setup.

So when you are in DEV mode, the session setup will not run.

I suppose that's your concern

Also, be careful during testing; you must increment the version of the control file and then run an installation, otherwise the session setup will do nothing. This is a common pitfall in WAPT training

Hello Simon,

Thanks for your reply. Indeed, there are a few subtleties. Below is the package as it works for me

Setup.py

Code: Select all

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from setuphelpers import *

app_bin = glob.glob("Insomnia.Core-*.exe")[0]
app_dir = makepath(programfiles32, "Insomnia")

processes_to_kill = ["Insomnia"]


def session_setup():
    # Initializing variables
    user_app_dir = makepath(application_data, "Insomnia")
    user_app_bin_path = makepath(user_app_dir, app_bin)

    # Installing the package in user env
    print("Installing: %s in user env" % "Insomnia")
    if get_version_from_binary(user_app_bin_path) != installed_softwares("Insomnia")[0]["version"]:
        killalltasks(processes_to_kill)
        if isdir(user_app_dir):
            remove_tree(user_app_dir)
        mkdirs(user_app_dir)
        print("Copying %s to %s " % (app_bin_path, user_app_bin_path))
        filecopyto(app_bin_path, user_app_bin_path)
        create_user_programs_menu_shortcut("Insomnia", user_app_bin_path)
    else:
        print("%s portable version in user env is already installed in the correct version" % "Insomnia")

def install():
    # Initializing variables
    package_version = control.version.split("-", 1)[0]
    bin_name = bin_name = glob.glob("Insomnia.Core-*.exe")[0]

    # Installing the package
    print("Installing: %s" % bin_name)
    if get_version_from_binary(app_bin_path) != package_version:
        killalltasks(processes_to_kill)
        if isdir(app_dir):
            remove_tree(app_dir)
        mkdirs(app_dir)
        print("Copying %s to %s " % (bin_name, app_bin_path))
        filecopyto(bin_name, app_bin_path)
        # remove_programs_menu_shortcut("Insomnia")

        # Adding this package to the "list-registry"
        register_windows_uninstall(control)  # control is a PackageEntry object corresponding to this package
    else:
        print("%s portable version is already installed in the correct version" % "Insomnia")
    session_setup()

def uninstall():
    # Uninstalling the package
    killalltasks(processes_to_kill)
    if isdir(app_dir):
        remove_tree(app_dir)
        unregister_uninstall("Insomnia")

I even tried an update_package

    app_name = control.name
    git_repo = "Kong/insomnia"
    url_api = "https://api.github.com/repos/%s/releases/latest" % git_repo

        # Checking version from file
        version_from_file = get_version_from_binary(latest_bin, "FileVersion")
        if not version_from_file.startswith(version):
            # remove additional .0 at the end of the version from file
            ".".join(get_version_from_binary(latest_bin, "FileVersion").split(".")[:3])
            print("Changing version to the version number of the binary")
            version = version_from_file
            os.rename(latest_bin, bin_name_sub % version)
    # Changing version of the package
    if Version(version) > Version(control.get_software_version()):
        print("Software version updated (from: %s to: %s)" % (control.get_software_version(), Version(version)))
        result = True

However, I have an audit error; I don't know what it is or how to resolve it

Code: Select all

app_bin = glob.glob("Insomnia.Core-*.exe")[0]

app_bin should be in install at the time of auditing and session setup; the file no longer exists
which explains the error

Thank you Simon

I corrected it, like this

Code: Select all

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from setuphelpers import *

app_bin = "Insomnia.Core.8.2.0.exe"
app_dir = makepath(programfiles32, "Insomnia")
app_bin_path = makepath(app_dir, app_bin)
processes_to_kill = ["Insomnia"]


def session_setup():
    # Initializing variables
    user_app_dir = makepath(application_data, "Insomnia")
    user_app_bin_path = makepath(user_app_dir, app_bin)

    # Installing the package in user env
    print("Installing: %s in user env" % "Insomnia")
    if get_version_from_binary(user_app_bin_path) != installed_softwares("Insomnia")[0]["version"]:
        killalltasks(processes_to_kill)
        if isdir(user_app_dir):
            remove_tree(user_app_dir)
        mkdirs(user_app_dir)
        print("Copying %s to %s " % (app_bin_path, user_app_bin_path))
        filecopyto(app_bin_path, user_app_bin_path)
        create_user_programs_menu_shortcut("Insomnia", user_app_bin_path)
    else:
        print("%s portable version in user env is already installed in the correct version" % "Insomnia")

def install():
    # Initializing variables
    package_version = control.version.split("-", 1)[0]
    bin_name = bin_name = glob.glob("Insomnia.Core-*.exe")[0]

    # Installing the package
    print("Installing: %s" % bin_name)
    if get_version_from_binary(app_bin_path) != package_version:
        killalltasks(processes_to_kill)
        if isdir(app_dir):
            remove_tree(app_dir)
        mkdirs(app_dir)
        print("Copying %s to %s " % (bin_name, app_bin_path))
        filecopyto(bin_name, app_bin_path)
        # remove_programs_menu_shortcut("Insomnia")

        # Adding this package to the "list-registry"
        register_windows_uninstall(control)  # control is a PackageEntry object corresponding to this package
    else:
        print("%s portable version is already installed in the correct version" % "Insomnia")
    session_setup()

def uninstall():
    # Uninstalling the package
    killalltasks(processes_to_kill)
    if isdir(app_dir):
        remove_tree(app_dir)
        unregister_uninstall("Insomnia")

I no longer have audit errors, but I'm forced to hardcode the binary name... this will no longer work for the package update

Published: **October 12, 2023 - 5:46 PM**

Hello Johan,

The binary name is available in the package at the time of installation, and in the c:\program files (x86)\Insomnia directory once the application is installed. You can move your app_bin variable between different functions by calling a

Code: Select all

glob.glob('insomnia*.exe')

at the time of installation, and a

Code: Select all

glob.glob(makepath(programfiles32,'insomnia','insomnia*.exe'))

at the time of session_setup and uninstall

Sincerely,

Denis
