sdhcp: new package at git #78

Closed apprehensions closed 1 year ago

apprehensions commented 1 year ago

please note: i blatantly stole from dhcpcd community's README, please point out any problems.

i originally also wanted this to show up with https://kisscommunity.bvnf.space/software/.

sdhcp has no configuration file and is managed via variables - SERVER, DNS, ROUTER, MASK, CLIENT, it only has 4 flags.

Package READMEs show up in kiss help <pkg> or, for packages in Dylan's repo, at https://kisslinux.org/wiki/. You are very welcome to write a kind of usage guide to put in https://kisscommunity.bvnf.space/software/ - maybe it could demonstrate those environment variables. Either write it and email me a patch, or make a pull request over on https://github.com/kiss-community/kisscommunity.org.

This package is probably better suited to the community repo though, since we already have a DHCP client in extra.

I appreciate it, but to be honest I am not good at writing stuff like this and plus those variables are pretty much rarely needed? The 5 arguments are mainly for debugging or misc - such as: not overwritting resolv.conf, run in foreground (used in the service), don't change interface info, and run an external program that will have the variables passed to it.

I intentionally opened this PR here mainly for the purpose of providing a better and faster DHCP client, as I had a good experience with it and would love it to be an alternative or replacement for bloated dhcpcd.

I would like to also point out the service doesn't work, I am working to fix it currently.
