files Module for Startingpoint
The files module simplifies the process of copying files to the image during the build time. These files are sourced from the config/files directory, which is located at /tmp/config/files inside the image.
Warning
If you want to place anything in
/etcof the final image, you MUST place them in/usr/etcin your repo, so that they're written to/usr/etcon the final system. That is the proper directory for "system" configuration templates on immutable Fedora distros, whereas the normal/etcis meant for manual overrides and editing by the machine's admin AFTER installation! See issue https://github.com/ublue-os/startingpoint/issues/28.
Example Configuration:
type: files
files:
usr: /usr
In the example above, usr represents the directory located inside the config/files in the repository, while /usr designates the corresponding destination within the image.
