Glazier Installer Actions

Actions are classes which the configuration handler may call to perform a variety of tasks during imaging.

Usage

Each module should inherit from BaseAction and will receive a BuildInfo instance (self._build_info).

Arguments are stored as a data structure in the self._args variable, commonly as an ordered list or dictionary.

Each action class should override the Run function to execute its main behavior.

If an action fails, the module should raise ActionError with a message explaining the cause of failure. This will abort the build.

Validation

Config validation can be accomplished by overriding the Validate() function. Validate should test the inputs (_args) for correctness. If _args contains any unexpected or inappropriate data, ValidationError should be raised.

Validate() will pass for any actions which have not overridden it with custom rules.

Actions

Abort

Aborts the build with a custom error message.

Arguments

  • Format: List
    • Arg1[str]: An error message to display; the reason for aborting.

AddChoice

Aliases: choice

BitlockerEnable

Enable Bitlocker on the host system.

Available modes:

  • ps_tpm: TPM via PowerShell
  • bde_tpm: TPM via manage-bde.exe

Arguments

  • Format: List
    • Arg1[str]: The mode to use for enabling Bitlocker.

BuildInfoDump

Write state from the BuildInfo class to disk for later processing by BuildInfoSave.

BuildInfoSave

Load BuildInfo data from disk and store permanently to the registry.

ChangeServer

Change the active Glazier config server at runtime.

ChangeServer is a unique action in the sense that it alters the behavior of the configuration builder in real time. This action must come (logically) last in the input config; once reached, the config builder effectively restarts immediately with the new server address and root. No subsequent tasks in the original location will be handled.

ChangeServer Arguments

  • Format: List
    • Arg1[str]: The config server to override the config_server flag.
    • Arg2[str]: The config root path to override the config_root_path flag.

Examples

ChangeServer: ['https://new-server.example.com', '/new/config/path']

]

ExitWinPE

Leave the WinPE environment en route to the local host configuration. Is normally followed by sysprep, then the relaunch of the autobuild tool running inside the new host image.

Performs multiple steps in one:

  • Copies the autobuild executable to C:
  • Copies the acting task list to C:
  • Reboots the host

Without a separate command, some of these actions would remain in the task list after being carried over, and would be re-executed.
