Container recovery: - Health monitor: MAX_RESTART_ATTEMPTS 3→10, interval 60s→120s - Dependency-aware restarts: won't restart services before their deps - Reset dependent counters when a dependency recovers - Handle "created" state containers (were invisible to health monitor) - Added IndeedHub, mempool-api, mysql to tier system - Crash recovery: podman start timeout 30s→120s with retry - Podman client: socket timeout 5s→30s, added restart policy UI state representation: - Exit code 0 shows "stopped" (gray), not "crashed" (red) - Exit code 137 shows "killed (OOM)" - Non-zero exit shows "crashed" (red) - Added exit_code field to PackageDataEntry Install/uninstall fixes: - Install returns error when container doesn't start (was silent success) - Post-install hooks awaited instead of fire-and-forget tokio::spawn - Uninstall: graceful rm before force, volume prune, network cleanup - Uninstall returns error on partial failure (was 200 OK) Config consistency: - DB passwords read from /var/lib/archipelago/secrets/ (was hardcoded) - Bitcoin: added ZMQ ports 28332/28333 for LND block notifications - IndeedHub port 7777→8190 (was conflicting with strfry) - Marketplace versions: LND 0.17.4→0.18.4, Mempool 2.5.0→3.0.0 Performance: - Metrics collector interval 60s→300s (was duplicating health monitor) - Podman client: proper error propagation instead of unwrap_or_default Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Archipelago OS Image Recipes
Build scripts for creating bootable Debian Linux OS images for Archipelago Bitcoin Node OS.
Quick Start
Build the ISO
# 1. Sync latest configs from live dev server
./sync-from-live.sh
# 2. Build components
./scripts/build-backend.sh
./scripts/build-frontend.sh
# 3. Build the ISO
./build-debian-iso.sh
This creates a bootable Debian Live ISO with Archipelago pre-installed.
Write to USB
# Using dd (recommended)
./write-usb-dd.sh /dev/diskN
# Or use Balena Etcher to flash the ISO
See the ISO-BUILD-CHECKLIST.md for a comprehensive build workflow.
See the Architecture documentation for detailed system information.
What's Included
- Debian Linux Base: Stable Debian 12 (Bookworm) distribution
- Podman: Container runtime for apps (rootless by default)
- Archipelago Backend: Rust-based API server
- Archipelago Frontend: Vue.js web interface
- Systemd Services: Automatic service management
- Network Configuration: NetworkManager for easy setup
Build Output
results/archipelago-debian-12-x86_64.iso- Bootable hybrid ISO image
Supported Platforms
- x86_64: Dell OptiPlex, HP ProDesk 400 G4 DM, Start9 Server Pure, and other x86_64 machines
- Build Systems: macOS (requires Docker) and Linux (native or Docker)
Installation Methods
1. Live USB Boot
Boot from USB, run in live mode to test, or install to disk.
2. Full Disk Installation
From the live environment, run:
sudo /archipelago/install-to-disk.sh
This installs Archipelago to a target disk using debootstrap.
