Subject: [PATCH v1 0/2] installer: split backend APIs from frontend UI
Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2026 11:23:33 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260119055335.1006446-1-kasturi.shekar@siemens.com> (raw)
This patch series is a first step towards splitting the installer into
a reusable backend and a frontend.
Patch-1: introduces a small backend API layer (sys_api.sh) that provides
installer functionality via structured shell functions with JSON-style
return values.
Patch-2: adapts the existing dialog-based installer frontend to consume
these APIs, without changing behavior. This serves as validation that
the abstraction is sufficient for the current UI.
Further steps (not included here) would build additional frontends on
top of the same backend APIs, but this series focuses purely on the
foundation and existing workflow.
