NAME

       schroot-setup - schroot chroot setup scripts

DESCRIPTION

       schroot  uses  scripts  to set up and then clean up the chroot environment.  The directory
       /etc/schroot/setup.d contains scripts run when a chroot is created and destroyed.  Several
       environment  variables  are  set  while  the  scripts  are  being  run, which allows their
       behaviour to be customised, depending upon, for example, the type of chroot in use.

       The scripts are run in name order, like those run by init(8), by using the same  style  of
       execution as run-parts(8).

       The setup scripts are all invoked with two options:

       1      The action to perform.

              When  a  session  is  first started, the chroot is set up by running the scripts in
              /etc/schroot/setup.d with the ‘setup-start’ option.  When the session is ended, the
              scripts  in  /etc/schroot/setup.d  are  run  in reverse order with the ‘setup-stop’
              option.

       2      The chroot status.

              This is either ‘ok’ if there are no problems, or ‘fail’ if  something  went  wrong.
              For example, particular actions may be skipped on failure.

       Note  that  the  scripts  should  be  idempotent.   They  must  be  idempotent  during the
       ‘setup-stop’ phase, because they may be run more than once, for example on failure.

ENVIRONMENT

   General variables
       AUTH_USER
              The username of the user the command in the chroot will run as.

       CHROOT_NAME
              The chroot name.  Note that this is the name of the orignal chroot  before  session
              creation; you probably want SESSION_ID.

       LIBEXEC_DIR
              The directory under which helper programs are located.

       MOUNT_DIR
              The  directory  under  which non-filesystem chroots are mounted (e.g. block devices
              and LVM snapshots).

       PID    The process ID of the schroot process.

       PLATFORM
              The operating system platform schroot  is  running  upon.   This  may  be  used  to
              introduce  platform-specific behaviour into the setup scripts where required.  Note
              that the HOST variables are probably what are required.  In the context of schroot,
              the platform is the supported configuration and behaviour for a given architecture,
              and may be identical between different architectures.

       SESSION_ID
              The session identifier.

       VERBOSE
              Set to ‘quiet’ if only error messages should be printed, ‘normal’ if other messages
              may  be  printed as well, and ‘verbose’ if all messages may be printed.  Previously
              called AUTH_VERBOSITY.

       CHROOT_SESSION_CREATE
              Set to ‘true’ if a session will be created, otherwise ‘false’.

       CHROOT_SESSION_CLONE
              Set to ‘true’ if a session will be cloned, otherwise ‘false’.

       CHROOT_SESSION_PURGE
              Set to ‘true’ if a session will be purged, otherwise ‘false’.

       CHROOT_SESSION_SOURCE
              Set to ‘true’ if a session will be created from a source chroot, otherwise ‘false’.

       CHROOT_TYPE
              The type of the chroot.  This is useful for restricting a setup task to  particular
              types of chroot (e.g. only block devices or LVM snapshots).

       CHROOT_NAME
              The  name  of  the  chroot.   This  is  useful  for  restricting  a setup task to a
              particular chroot, or set of chroots.

       CHROOT_ALIAS
              The name of the alias used to select the chroot.  This is useful for specialising a
              setup  task  based  upon  one of its alternative alias names, or the default chroot
              name.   For  example,  it  could  be  used  to  specify   additional   sources   in
              /etc/apt/sources.list,  such  as a stable-security alias for a stable chroot, or an
              experimental alias for an unstable chroot.

       CHROOT_DESCRIPTION
              The description of the chroot.

       CHROOT_MOUNT_LOCATION
              The location to mount the  chroot.   It  is  used  for  mount  point  creation  and
              mounting.

       CHROOT_LOCATION
              The  location  of  the  chroot  inside  the mount point.  This is to allow multiple
              chroots on a single filesystem.  Set for all mountable chroot types.

       CHROOT_PATH
              The absolute path to the  chroot.   This  is  typically  CHROOT_MOUNT_LOCATION  and
              CHROOT_LOCATION  concatenated  together.   This is the path which should be used to
              access the chroots.

   Plain and directory chroot variables
       These chroot types use only general variables.

   File variables
       CHROOT_FILE
              The file containing the chroot files.

       CHROOT_FILE_REPACK
              Set to ‘true’ to repack the chroot into  an  archive  file  on  ending  a  session,
              otherwise ‘false’.

   Mountable chroot variables
       These variables are only set for directly mountable chroot types.

       CHROOT_MOUNT_DEVICE
              The device to mount containing the chroot.  mounting.

       CHROOT_MOUNT_OPTIONS
              Options to pass to mount(8).

       CHROOT_LOCATION
              The  location  of  the chroot inside the mount point.  This allows the existence of
              multiple chroots on a single filesystem.

   Filesystem union variables
       CHROOT_UNION_TYPE
              Union filesystem type.

       CHROOT_UNION_MOUNT_OPTIONS
              Union filesystem mount options.

       CHROOT_UNION_OVERLAY_DIRECTORY
              Union filesystem overlay directory (writable).

       CHROOT_UNION_UNDERLAY_DIRECTORY
              Union filesystem underlay directory (read-only).

   Block device variables
       CHROOT_DEVICE
              The device containing the  chroot  root  filesystem.   This  is  usually,  but  not
              necessarily,  the  device which will be mounted.  For example, an LVM snapshot this
              will be the original logical volume.

   LVM snapshot variables
       CHROOT_LVM_SNAPSHOT_NAME
              Snapshot name to pass to lvcreate(8).

       CHROOT_LVM_SNAPSHOT_DEVICE
              The name of the LVM snapshot device.

       CHROOT_LVM_SNAPSHOT_OPTIONS
              Options to pass to lvcreate(8).

   Custom variables
       Custom keys set in schroot.conf will be uppercased and set in the environment as described
       in schroot.conf(5).

FILES

   Setup script configuration
       The directory /etc/schroot/default contains the default settings used by setup scripts.

       config Main  configuration  file  read  by  setup  scripts.   The  format  of this file is
              described  in  schroot-script-config(5).   This  is  the  default  value  for   the
              script-config key.  Note that this was formerly named /etc/schroot/script-defaults.
              The following files are referenced by default:

       copyfiles
              A list of files to copy into the chroot from the host system.  Note that  this  was
              formerly named /etc/schroot/copyfiles-defaults.

       fstab  A  file  in  the  format decribed in fstab(5), used to mount filesystems inside the
              chroot.  The mount location is relative to the root of the chroot.  Note that  this
              was formerly named /etc/schroot/mount-defaults.

       nssdatabases
              System  databases (as described in /etc/nsswitch.conf on GNU/Linux systems) to copy
              into  the  chroot  from  the   host.    Note   that   this   was   formerly   named
              /etc/schroot/nssdatabases-defaults.

   Setup scripts
       The directory /etc/schroot/setup.d contains the chroot setup scripts.

       00check
              Print debugging diagnostics and perform basic sanity checking.

       05file Unpack, clean up, and repack file-based chroots.

       05fsunion
              Create and remove union filesystems.

       05lvm  Create and remove LVM snapshots.

       10mount
              Mount and unmount filesystems.

       15binfmt
              Sets  up  the QEMU user emulator using binfmt-support.  This permits a chroot for a
              different CPU architecture to be used transparently, providing  an  alternative  to
              cross-compiling or whole-machine emulation.

       15killprocs
              Kill  processes  still running inside the chroot when ending a session, which would
              prevent unmounting of filesystems and cleanup of any other resources.

       20copyfiles
              Copy files from the host system into the chroot.  Configure networking  by  copying
              hosts and resolv.conf, for example.

       20nssdatabases
              Configure system databases by copying passwd, shadow, group etc. into the chroot.

       50chrootname
              Set  the  chroot  name (/etc/debian_chroot) in the chroot.  This may be used by the
              shell prompt to display the current chroot.
