Introduces Alpine-based installation and management scripts for Garage, including ct/alpine-garage.sh and install/alpine-garage-install.sh. Updates ct/garage.sh and install/garage-install.sh to unify update logic, resource defaults, and credential handling. Adds frontend/public/json/garage.json with metadata and install options for both Debian and Alpine. Improves service management and configuration generation for both environments.
Adds robust error handling and fallback logic for network operations in setup_ffmpeg, setup_gs, setup_hwaccel, setup_java, setup_mariadb, setup_ruby, setup_clickhouse, setup_uv, and setup_yq functions. Now uses timeouts, checks for empty responses, and provides alternative installation paths or informative warnings when API or mirror requests fail. This improves reliability in environments with intermittent or restricted network access.
Introduces functions for checking tool installation and version, removing old versions, determining if upgrades are needed, and managing repositories for major tools (MariaDB, MongoDB, Node.js, PHP, PostgreSQL, MySQL). Refactors setup functions for Composer, FFmpeg, Go, Ghostscript, ImageMagick, Java, local IP helper, MariaDB, MongoDB, MySQL, and Node.js to use these new utilities, improving idempotency, upgrade handling, and error reporting. Enhances repository setup with parameter validation and error handling.
Enhanced the setup_mariadb function to better handle MariaDB repository updates, version checks, and upgrade flows. The script now updates the repository if the version differs, provides clearer messaging, and ensures proper upgrade steps for both repository and package updates.
Disabled various debug echo and msg_debug statements in the create_lxc_container function to reduce console output during normal operation. This helps keep logs cleaner while retaining the code for future debugging if needed.
