parabird redesign #46

(This is an architecture issue)

We need to redesign parabird to make it more flexible.

for the moment here are only the order of each step:

  1. Configuring PB creation
    • logger
    • tempdir creation (mountpoint & tc_mountpoint)
    • import config
    • update config
    • check deps
  2. Downloading
    • download
    • check sums?
  3. Create portable Apps (extracting)
    • create folders
    • extract to folders
    • copy configs
    • copy starters
  4. Container handling
    • if wanted create container
    • mount container (tc_mountpoint)
  5. Copy portable Apps
    • copy files (tc_mountpoint)
  6. Stick handling
    • detect stick
    • mounting
    • check free diskspace
    • check if container exists and give an option to rename it
    • copying
    • unmounting
  7. cleanup
    • remove local portable apps
    • remove tempdirs

This makes parabird much more flexible, e.g. if we want to replace tc one day or if we want to implement another container creation procedure.
