Maintain OpenStream TV on OpenWrt

Update

Run the OpenWrt installer again. It downloads the package for the detected package manager and architecture, verifies its checksum, then updates through apk or opkg. Do not run ost update on a package installation.

Service and logs

/etc/init.d/openstream status
/etc/init.d/openstream restart
logread -e openstream

Boot startup is controlled by /etc/init.d/openstream enable and disable. The service configuration is /etc/config/openstream; after UCI edits, use uci commit openstream and restart the service.

Back up and uninstall

Stop the service and privately copy /etc/openstream and /etc/config/openstream. These contain credentials, TLS key material and settings. Package removal with apk del openstream or opkg remove openstream preserves these paths. Use openstream-slim in the removal command if that is the installed package.

To erase OpenStream TV data after removing the package, separately delete /etc/openstream and /etc/config/openstream only after confirming that you no longer need their contents.
