This patch updates the admin UI to include 3 tabs
of content.
Charts
messages
config
The charts tab is the existing line charts.
The messages tab shows a list of RX (green) and TX (red) messages
from/to aprsd.
The config tab shows the config loaded at startup time.
This patch adds the dumping out of a flattened config to the log
at startup. This is helpful for seeing what aprsd server is actually
using for config entries at startup and since it's in the log, you can
reference it.
This patch adds a message counter for each plugin. When the regex for
a plugin passes and the message is pass into the plugin for processing,
that message is tracked. This message count is reported by the stats
tracking object now for the web admin ui.
This patch adds usage of update_checker to check to make sure the
version of APRSD being launched is the latest version. Also added a
call to upate_checker as part of the KeepAlive thread. It will
call update_check every hour. If there is no aprsd connectivitity,
the update check will silently fail.
This patch added some changes to the INSTALL.txt file to fix a user
issue: https://github.com/craigerl/aprsd/issues/58
Added documentation to the INSTALL.txt to use the makefile. It's
far easier and superior in every way to setup and install than the
manual instructions. Use pypi for the official package.
This patch cleans up the layout of the admin web page stats graphs
as well as adds in the email stats. Added the titles to each
graph, so you know what you are looking at.
This patch reworks the stats object dict and includes more data.
Also includes aprsis last update timestamp (from last recieved message).
This is used to help determine if the aprsis server connection is still
alive and well.
This patch adds the aprsd-lnav.json formatting file.
This is useful when you want to tail the logfile with the lnav
log tailing app.
http://lnav.org/
To install the aprsd-lnav.json formatter
1) install lnav
2) lnav -i aprsd-lnav.json
3) lnav -C -- just to test it out
The next time you launch aprsd do it with this
aprsd server --loglevel DEBUG | lnav
This patch also updates the logging output from the flask
web service to 1) disable flask web url logging and 2)
use the same output format as the rest of the app.
This patch moves the default log format string and date format string
to the config file, so users can format the logs as they see fit.
The default log format also includes the file and line number that
posted the log entry.
The new entries in the config are here:
aprsd:
logformat: "String here"
dateformat: "string here"
This patch adds 2 items. First it adds the new StockPlugin,
which fetches stock quotes from yahoo finance rest API using
the yfinance python module.
2nd, the web interface contains a new url /plugins, which allows
aprsd to reload all of it's plugins from disk. This is useful for
development where the dev is editing an existing plugin and wants to
run the edited plugin without restarting aprsd itself. The /plugins
url requires admin login credentials.
TODO: would be nice to live reload the aprsd.yml config file, so plugin
reloading can start new plugins defined in aprsd.yml between /plugins
being reloaded.
