Hi folks,
as already written in the forum, I have ported my IPTraffic addon for IPFire.
You have come to the right place here. The forum is mainly a support forum.
A few questions are still open. I hope you will help me.
Yes, absolutely.
But first from me: What is the IPTraffic add-on?
The cronjob is okay. Now I wonder if I should create the bash-installer as perl-script.
Why? I would prefer shell because we have a small library that we load for common functionality like starting a service, etc.
I can't figure out the git-links. I see the code, but don't understand how it can help me.
Please explain the problem you are trying to solve and I hope I can help to come up with a solution.
How to insert the code for the menu where?
There are files in config/menu. Have a look at the files beginning with EX-. Those are add-ons.
How the language file should look like is clear, but how do I get it inserted in the system?
Have a look at lfs/squid-accounting. That script installs files from src/squid-accounting to /var/ipfire/addon-lang.
You can do the same and run /usr/local/bin/update-lang-cache in the install.sh script.
Thanks in advance for your help. Frank
Let me know if this has helped.
Best, -Michael
