Help Needed To Test Nightly Builds
|
From the AREDN Development Team via W6BI
As we start on the AREDN Development Plan for 2022, we need some help testing the current nightly builds. Unlike previous nightly builds, these builds are more likely to be unstable and should *not* be used on any node where physical access is a problem. We don¡¯t expect failures, but the changes we¡¯ll be making are significant. Replacing Perl with Lua The currently nightly build has replaced all the backend services, originally written in Perl, with code written in Lua. It also replaces the ¡°read-only¡± web pages with Lua pages. These pages are ¡®status¡¯, mesh¡¯, ¡®signal¡¯, and ¡®scan¡¯. You can tell it¡¯s a Lua page as we¡¯ve added a little ¡°Lua version¡± to the top/right of the page. These pages should behave identically to the Perl pages they replace; show the same information and perform similarly (the old pages are still available with the names ¡°status.pl¡¯, ¡®mesh.pl¡¯, ¡®signal.pl¡¯ and ¡®scan.pl¡¯ if you want to compare). While many of us have been running these builds for a while without problem, the more eyes and the more varied hardware these are tested on the better.
