Replace statusInfo.updated (bool) with serverInfo.restart (nullable enum) to unify all restart-needed scenarios under a single PatchDB field. Backend sets the restart reason in RPC handlers for hostname change (mdns), language change, kiosk toggle, and OS update download. Init clears it on boot. The update flow checks this field to prevent updates when a restart is already pending. Frontend shows a persistent action bar with reason-specific i18n messages instead of per-feature restart dialogs. For .local hostname changes, the existing "open new address" dialog is preserved — the restart toast appears after the user logs in on the new address. Also includes migration in v0_4_0_alpha_23 to remove statusInfo.updated and initialize serverInfo.restart. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
StartOS Backend
- Requirements:
- Install Rust
- Recommended: rust-analyzer
- Docker
Structure
startos: This contains the core library for StartOS that supports buildingstartbox.helpers: This contains utility functions used across bothstartosandjs-enginemodels: This contains types that are shared acrossstartos,js-engine, andhelpers
Artifacts
The StartOS backend is packed into a single binary startbox that is symlinked under
several different names for different behavior:
startd: This is the main daemon of StartOSstart-cli: This is a CLI tool that will allow you to issue commands tostartdand control it similarly to the UIstart-sdk: This is a CLI tool that aids in building and packaging services you wish to deploy to StartOS
