And I'm in the middle of squeezing +the fujinet-chat code down, so this is currently low priority. It +really only exists so I can easily test fujinet-chat against different +FujiNet firmware versions. + +However, it could be made more useful, when/if I find the time +and motivation to extend it. + +Stuff to do before a 1.0 release: +--------------------------------- + +- Test with newer esptool versions. + +- Test with older platformio versions. + +- Find out if it works on MacOS as-is (if not, make it work). + I think the device nodes aren't /dev/ttyUSB* there... though + the -p option should work, for users who know what they're doing. + +- Config file in ~/.fujinet-updater.conf, to set at least the default + -t option. Don't actually put this in ~/.fujinet-updater/, since + the user might want to rm -rf that to clean out old firmwares. + +- See if we can autodetect which /dev/ttyUSB* is the FujiNet. + Maybe "esptool.py chip_id" or such. If we detect multiple + FujiNets (or at least multiple ESP32 devices), show a list + & let the user choose (unless -f). It looks like we can + actually read 256 bytes or so of the FujiNet's flash (at offset + 0x10000) and check for the string FujiNet. We can even check the + bytes we read against what we're about to flash, and tell the user + the operation is unnecessary! + +- -c option to force the use of curl instead of wget, if both + are installed. + +- -d option to delete the ~/.fujinet-updater/ dir afterwards? + or maybe make this the default, and use -k to keep it? Or + maybe only delete the downloaded/extracted files, because... + +- ...we might log stdout/stderr to ~/.fujinet-updater/log.txt + or simiar. + +- The github releases json file has sha hashes, it would be nice + to check those after downloading a file... or *not* downloading + the file if we find an existing copy. + +- -v option for verify? easy to implement (esptool.py has an option + for it already). + +Stuff to do after a 1.0 release: +-------------------------------- + +GUI frontend. It can be barebones, but it at least should match the +functionality of the official one. Write in C, use GTK (2? 3?). + +Alternately, a curses UI. Doubt I'll do both. |
