test: the theme drives the colour scheme, and mockModule takes the module
Both of Greptile's findings on #591 were real, and the first was a plain miss:
mockModule shipped with no caller, so its documented usage had never once been
executed and could not have worked.  It called jest.requireActual on a path
passed in by the spec, which resolves relative to test-utils.js rather than to
the caller -- for any spec in a subdirectory the documented
'../hooks/customHooks' pointed outside src altogether.  It now takes the module
the spec has already resolved, and throws on a string rather than quietly
resolving to the wrong one, which was the original failure.

It also has a caller now.  FileBrowser.test.js listed six hooks in a hand-written
factory and returned only those, so every other export of customHooks was
undefined for anything it rendered -- the exact landmine the helper exists to
remove.

The second: `inverted` drove Mantine's colour scheme on its own, so asking for
night or amber through the new theme option produced a tree that reported a dark
theme while Mantine rendered its light one.  Production cannot reach that
combination, and a harness that invents states the app never has is worse than
one that is merely incomplete -- what a test proves about such a tree is true of
nothing.  The scheme is now derived from the theme name via isDarkTheme, and
data-theme is stamped on <html>, without which a component test cannot exercise
any token table or the night-mode treatment at all.  isDark remains overridable
so a spec can still make the two disagree deliberately.

test-utils.test.js covers the harness itself, which had none.  Eight of its
twelve assertions were red against the code above.

986 jest, 46 e2e, clean cache-busted build, tsc clean.

WROLPi

Build Status License: GPL v3 Discord Gitpod

Create your own off-grid library.

WROLPi Logo

WROLPi is a self-contained collection of software to help you survive the world Without Rule of Law.

WROLPi is intended to be run on a Raspberry Pi with an optional external drive attached. It serves up it's own Wi-Fi network so that any user with a laptop/tablet/phone can connect and use the library created by the maintainer.

Try WROLPi!

You can try out WROLPi by running the docker containers.

  1. Install docker-ce and docker-compose
  2. Copy the latest WROLPi code.
    • git clone https://github.com/lrnselfreliance/wrolpi.git
  3. Change directory into the code base.
    • cd wrolpi
  4. Initialize git submodules
    • git submodule update --init
  5. Build the containers.
    • docker-compose build --parallel
  6. Create volumes.
    • docker volume create --name=openstreetmap-data
    • docker volume create --name=openstreetmap-rendered-tiles
  7. Initialize the database (SQLite in the media directory).
    • docker-compose run --rm api db upgrade
  8. Start the docker containers.
    • docker-compose up
  9. Browse to WROLPi.

More Docker documentation is available in docker/README.md

Install WROLPi

Full installation instructions are in INSTALL.md. Pick the option that matches your hardware:

  • WROLPi Portable (Live USB) — boot a complete WROLPi from a USB stick on any x86 PC or laptop. Nothing is installed to the computer; the first boot creates a persistence partition on the USB so your library, database, and configuration survive reboots.
  • Debian 12 — install WROLPi onto an x86 PC or laptop.
  • Raspberry Pi — install WROLPi onto a Raspberry Pi with an external drive.
  • Docker — run the WROLPi containers on an existing Linux host.

Charter

Guiding Principals

  1. Storage is cheaper than power.
  2. Two is one, one is none.
  3. Run silently.
  4. Primary, secondary, tertiary.
  5. Secure as a bookshelf in your home.

Physical properties

  1. A WROLPi instance should be capable of running with a minimal of hardware:
    • Raspberry Pi
    • SD card
    • External USB hard drive
    • Power supply and cables
    • Wi-Fi USER device such as a phone, tablet, or laptop.
  2. A WROLPi instance should consume a minimal amount of electricity during WROL event. It is expected power will be scarce when WROLPi is needed most.

User expectations

  1. A WROLPi instance should be run and maintained by a person (MAINTAINER) with a moderate amount of Linux and Raspberry Pi experience. It is expected that they should be able to do this using only the documentation on their WROLPi.

Software properties and capabilities

  1. A WROLPi instance should be able to "factory-reset" itself without any outside services.
  2. WROLPi should function completely without any internet services.
  3. A user should have easy access to their data if WROLPi fails:
    • For example, a user can watch their videos by navigating a short and intuitive directory structure and opening the video in their preferred video player.
  4. WROLPi should be self-documented. The UI should contain a tutorial for USERS as well as the MAINTAINER.
    • If the UI isn't functional, the code should be documented such that a user can restore functionality.
  5. WROLPi should favor pre-processing, rather than processing during a WROL event. Such as re-encoding a video, or processing captions. This is to ensure that when a user adds content during non-WROL time, the processing for optimum performance is already done for a WROL event.
