The full unifi software is java with a mongodb database backend and works fine. I have a RPM I created, the only problem I haven't been able to fix is the selinux issues, one for the private mongodb instance, and then the ports it binds to. 
Please open a bugzilla for the SELinux issues.

Before I open a BZ, here's what I have in my spec file which from what I understand should be persistent...

%posttrans
/usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -e /var/lib/mongod "/var/lib/unifi/logs(/.*)?"
/usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -e /var/lib/mongod "/var/lib/unifi/data(/.*)?"
/usr/sbin/semanage port -m -t mongod_port_t 27117

Or should this be handled in a policy?

Thanks,

I think your post install should look like.

/usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -e /var/log/mongod "/var/lib/unifi/logs"
/usr/sbin/semanage fcontext -e /var/lib/mongod "/var/lib/unifi/data"
/usr/sbin/semanage port -m -t mongod_port_t 27117

Don't use the regex. Also I would figure the logs should be labeled mongod_log_t rather then mongod_lib_t.

What is the concern with regex? It is specific to packaging? Most of the examples I found online used that method... As far as the label, since everything is getting dumped in /var/lib I figured that would be OK. 


If this is a standard location for this code, we should put it into the base package.

There is not a standard install location, the install will "work" as long as everything stays in the same relative location (the unifi directory). Since it writes a lot of stuff I figured /var was the best (only?) real option. 

Following the example of a draft wiki I can't find anymore I had modified the scripts to this instead of using %posttrans:
%post
semanage fcontext -a -t mongod_var_lib_t \
    "%{_sharedstatedir}/unifi/logs(/.*)?" 2>/dev/null || :
semanage fcontext -a -t mongod_var_lib_t \
    "%{_sharedstatedir}/unifi/data(/.*)?" 2>/dev/null || :
restorecon -R %{_sharedstatedir}/unifi/logs || :
restorecon -R %{_sharedstatedir}/unifi/data || :
semanage port -m -t mongod_port_t 27117 || :

%postun
if [ $1 -eq 0 ] ; then  # final removal
semanage fcontext -d -t mongod_var_lib_t \
    "%{_sharedstatedir}/unifi/logs(/.*)?" 2>/dev/null || :
semanage fcontext -d -t mongod_var_lib_t \
    "%{_sharedstatedir}/unifi/data(/.*)?" 2>/dev/null || :
fi

Thanks,
