Migrate wicked

This project creates a migrate-wicked binary which is able to parse wicked xml configs and send them to a NetworkManager dbus service.

Installation

The main way to use the migration is through the container image available at registry.opensuse.org/home/jcronenberg/migrate-wicked/containers/opensuse/migrate-wicked-git:latest.
For openSUSE a package that includes all the latest changes is available at https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:jcronenberg:migrate-wicked/migrate-wicked-git.

Usage

The main recommended way to use migrate-wicked is with a container.

podman run -v /etc/sysconfig/network:/etc/sysconfig/network registry.opensuse.org/home/jcronenberg/migrate-wicked/containers/opensuse/migrate-wicked-git:latest

This will create *.nmconnection files inside /etc/sysconfig/network/NM-migrated.
See also the Container's README for further infos.

If you want to run the migration on the system itself the required xml config needs to be generated via wicked and can the be passed to migrate-wicked.

wicked show-config > wicked.xml
migrate-wicked migrate wicked.xml
# See also migrate-wicked --help for further info

Architecture

migrate-wicked uses agama as a library to communicate the parsed network state to NetworkManager but the binary is completely independent of any agama services and can be run standalone.
