# Unattended Installation Mode - Implementation Summary

**Date**: 2025-01-06
**Version**: 3.5.0
**Status**: ✅ Complete

## Overview

This implementation adds a fully automated, unattended installation mode to the provisioning platform installer, designed for CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure automation scenarios.

## Implementation Details

### 1. Core Modules Created

#### `/src/unattended/mod.rs`
- Module entry point
- Exports all unattended functionality

#### `/src/unattended/notifier.rs` (301 lines)
**Features:**
- Webhook-based notification system
- Progress tracking with real-time updates
- Automatic retry logic with exponential backoff
- Custom headers support for authentication
- JSON payload structure for all events

**Notification Events:**
- `Started`: Installation begins
- `Progress`: Real-time progress updates
- `StepCompleted`: Individual step completion
- `Completed`: Installation success
- `Failed`: Error notifications with context

**Key Types:**
- `NotificationConfig`: Configuration for webhooks
- `NotificationPayload`: Structured event data
- `Notifier`: Async notification sender

#### `/src/unattended/runner.rs` (425 lines)
**Features:**
- Configuration-driven deployment
- Automatic dependency resolution

- Multi-platform support (Docker, Podman, Kubernetes, OrbStack)

**Key Types:**
- `UnattendedInstallConfig`: Main configuration structure
- `DeploymentStep`: Individual deployment step
- `run_unattended()`: Main execution function

**Deployment Steps:**
1. Validate prerequisites
2. Create work directory
3. Generate secrets (if enabled)
4. Generate configuration
5. Deploy platform
6. Wait for services
7. Verify deployment

### 2. Example Configurations

Created 4 complete example configurations in `/provisioning/config/installer-examples/`:

#### `solo.toml`
- **Mode**: Solo developer
- **Platform**: Docker
- **Services**: 7 services (3 required, 4 optional)
- **Use Case**: Local development, prototyping

#### `multi-user.toml`
- **Mode**: Multi-user team
- **Platform**: Docker
- **Services**: 8 services with Git and database
- **Use Case**: Team collaboration
- **Features**: Slack webhook notifications

#### `cicd.toml`
- **Mode**: CI/CD automation
- **Platform**: Docker
- **Services**: 9 services with API server
- **Use Case**: Automated pipelines
- **Features**: CI/CD webhook integration, enhanced logging

#### `enterprise.toml`
- **Mode**: Enterprise production
- **Platform**: Kubernetes
- **Services**: 15 services with full observability
- **Use Case**: Production deployments
- **Features**: PagerDuty integration, HA configuration

### 3. Taskserv Self-Install Template

#### `/provisioning/extensions/taskservs/kubernetes/self-install.nu` (358 lines)
**Features:**
- MCP server integration for configuration
- Automatic dependency resolution (containerd, etcd, cilium, helm)
- Dynamic installer config generation
- Dry-run mode for testing
- Sample config generation

**Usage:**
```bash
# Install from MCP
./self-install.nu --mcp-url http://localhost:8084 \
                  --workspace production \
                  --infra k8s-cluster

# Generate sample
./self-install.nu sample --output kubernetes-install.toml

# Dry-run
./self-install.nu --dry-run --config-output test-config.toml
```

### 4. Integration with Main Binary

#### Updated Files:
- `/src/main.rs`: Added `--unattended` flag
- `/src/lib.rs`: Exported unattended module types

**CLI Usage:**
```bash
# Unattended mode with config file
provisioning-installer --unattended --config /path/to/config.toml

# Using example configs
provisioning-installer --unattended --config provisioning/config/installer-examples/solo.toml
```

### 5. Dependencies Added

**Cargo.toml additions:**
```toml
uuid = { version = "1.6", features = ["v4", "serde"] }  # Installation ID generation
dirs = "5.0"                                             # Directory utilities
```

## Configuration Structure

### Top-Level Configuration

```toml
installation_id = "unique-id"         # Auto-generated if not provided
verbose = false                        # Enable verbose logging
fail_fast = true                       # Stop on first error
cleanup_on_failure = true              # Auto-cleanup on failure
provisioning_path = "/usr/local/bin/provisioning"
work_dir = "~/.provisioning"

[deployment]
platform = "Docker"                    # Docker, Podman, Kubernetes, OrbStack
mode = "Solo"                          # Solo, MultiUser, CICD, Enterprise
domain = "localhost"
auto_generate_secrets = true

[[deployment.services]]
name = "orchestrator"
description = "Task coordination"
port = 8080
enabled = true

[notifications]                        # Optional
webhook_url = "https://example.com/webhook"
notify_progress = true
notify_completion = true

```

## Webhook Integration

### Payload Structure

All webhooks receive JSON payloads:

```json
{
  "event": "progress",                     // Event type
  "installation_id": "kubernetes-1.28.0-20250106",
  "timestamp": 1704550222,                 // Unix timestamp
  "current_step": "deploy-docker",         // Current step
  "progress": 60,                          // Progress 0-100
  "completed_steps": 4,                    // Steps completed
  "total_steps": 7,                        // Total steps
  "error": null,                           // Error message (if failed)
  "metadata": {}                           // Additional metadata
}
```

### Supported Webhooks

```bash
# In pipeline script
export WEBHOOK_URL="https://example.com/webhook"
provisioning-installer --unattended \
  --config provisioning/config/installer-examples/cicd.toml
```

## Security Considerations

✅ Auto-generate secrets (no hardcoded secrets)
✅ HTTPS-only webhooks
✅ Authentication headers support
✅ Environment variable substitution
✅ Configuration file permissions (600)
✅ Audit logging

## Future Enhancements

Potential improvements for future iterations:

1. **Advanced Retry Logic**: Configurable retry strategies
2. **Parallel Deployment**: Deploy independent services in parallel
3. **Rollback Support**: Automatic rollback on failure
4. **State Management**: Persistent state for recovery
5. **Health Checks**: Advanced health check validation
6. **Metrics Export**: Prometheus metrics for monitoring
7. **Multi-Stage Deployment**: Support for deployment stages
8. **Template Variables**: Advanced variable substitution

## Known Limitations

- Deployment steps are sequential (not parallel)
- Limited to predefined deployment steps
- No built-in rollback mechanism
- Webhook failures don't block deployment

## Support & Documentation

- **User Guide**: `/provisioning/platform/installer/UNATTENDED_MODE.md`
- **Implementation Summary**: This file
- **Example Configs**: `/provisioning/config/installer-examples/`
- **Taskserv Template**: `/provisioning/extensions/taskservs/kubernetes/self-install.nu`

## Conclusion

The unattended installation mode is production-ready and suitable for CI/CD pipelines and automated infrastructure deployments. All components are tested, documented, and integrated with the main installer binary.
