Description
In MEN-2284 we provide some update modules out of the box. However, it is expected that there will be update modules for a variety of use cases, and we should encourage our community to share these.
User value (why)
- Broaden Mender by creating a community repository covering a growing set of use cases for updating devices
Size (SP)
- TBD
Acceptance criteria
- A github repository which is dedicated to host (community) update modules is created
- A github repository which is dedicated to host (community) update module Yocto recipes and classes.
Update modules provided out of the box (MEN-2284) are in this repository- They are in mendersoftware/mender
It is possible to install an update module into an existing Mender installation, using the CLI of the device (e.g. wget ....)- There are guidelines for contributing new update modules
