This patch adds the new APRSRegistryThread,
which enabled in config, will send a small
packet of information to the as yet deployed
APRS service registry every 900 seconds.
The data that this thread will send is
the service callsign, a description of the service,
a website url for the service.
The idea being that the registry website that this thread
sends information to, will show all the services that are
running on the ARPS network, so Ham operators can discover
them and try them out.
This Patch updates the location plugin to allow configuring which
geopy library's supported geocoders. This patch also adds a fake
geopy geocoder class that uses the us government's API for location.
This patch adds the new packet_dump_timeout config option, defaulting to
60 seconds. If the same packet matching the from, to, msgNo is RX'd
within that timeout the packet is considered a dupe and will be
dropped. Ack packets are not subject to dupe checking.
This patch adds the ability to webchat to set the path
on every outbound packet for the KISS clients as well as
the fake client. The path dropdown includes the options for
Default path (which will default to the config setting)
WIDE1-1,WIDE2-1

This patch rewrites the packet_list internally to be a dictionary
instead of a list for very fast lookups. This was needed to test for
duplicate packets already in the list.
This patch drops packets that have the same data and are < 60 seconds
in age from the last time we got the packet. On RF based clients
we can get dupes!!
This patch adds a new webchat config section to specify:
web_ip (the ip address to listen on)
web_port
latitude (latitude to use for the GPS beacon button)
longitude (long to use for the GPS beacon button)
This patch adds basic ratelimiting to sending out AckPackets
and non AckPackets. This provides a basic way to prevent
aprsd from sending out packets as fast as possible, which isn't
great for a bandwidth limited network.
This patch also adds some keepalive checks to all threads in the
threadslist as well as the network client objects (apris, kiss)
This patch moves the plugin manager to early in the startup
process so that the plugins get loaded, which also means each
plugin's custom config settings will be in the CONF object.
This allows dumping the entire CONF with all the plugin settings.
This patch introduces rpyc based RPC client/server for
the flask web interface to call into the running aprsd server
command to fetch stats, logs, etc to send to the browser.
This allows running the web interface via gunicorn command
gunicorn -k gevent --reload --threads 10 -w 1 aprsd.flask:app --log-level DEBUG
