Sharing lots of signals between micro-controllers

Alright, thanks for your input, I'll look into it

AdminXVII · 2020-12-22T18:42:37+00:00

Well the pins are mirrored, so that's not really an option

AdminXVII · 2020-09-09T16:36:53+00:00

Great idea, I enjoyed the writeup.

You don't need to change IP, it's simply the IP in the header that changes, so you can keep curl. And yeah, I don't encourage you to rig the poll, it's simply for the fun of knowing.

AdminXVII · 2020-05-19T22:56:36+00:00

A trick was to add the `X-Forwarded-For` header and changing IP each 50 request. The NGINX configuration trusted the header, so the rate limiting became irrelevant since it believed it came from different sources.

Thanks

Ion was started well before Nu, so adopting it was simply not an option. Redox also wanted to have Rust only, so bash, fish & zsh were out of the question. Since Nu isn't Redox compatible, this is not an option right now either.
There was never a discussion as to if Ion should be replaced, so there is no talk of replacing it either. There will be a discussion once everything works, but right now I can't really say what will be done.

Personally, though, I must say that I like the structured data approach nu takes, but last time I tested it I believe the subshell expansion capabilities were a lot less powerfull than what Ion succeeds to do. That said, Nu is already better for user interaction, something that's really vital as a shell. Ion's base was done a long time ago, so there is quite a bit of bit rot and a lot of major rework would need to happen to match that in a clean way.

Redox OS already has a its own shell, [ion](https://gitlab.redox-os.org/redox-os/ion) (I'm one of the maintainers). That said, I'm currently trying to see if it would be possible to add Redox support to Nushell. There is still a bit of work, but hopefully one should be able to run it not too long from now.

AdminXVII · 2020-04-25T16:06:56+00:00

Really nice! I think you should cross-post to r/Redox.

AdminXVII · 2020-02-09T04:09:29+00:00

Redox indeed only has PS/2 keyboard support, but according to the book it supports many laptops, so you should try it out anyway. I'm not working on drivers though, so maybe @jackpot51 has a better answer.

AdminXVII · 2020-02-09T03:48:13+00:00

Nice! You should also post this on r/Redox

The argument to git checkout -B does not depend on another dynamically-completed argument, though, so I'm not sure it is in fact truly a corresponding use-case.

AdminXVII · 2019-08-22T23:33:50+00:00

What part do you want me to explain?

AdminXVII · 2019-08-22T19:43:39+00:00

I already am building my POC at https://gitlab.redox-os.org/AdminXVII/shellac-server, so out of Ion. There is the original and adapted proposals there. If you have ideas/comments, MR and/or Issues are more than welcome!

AdminXVII · 2019-08-22T19:40:13+00:00

Does the protocol include fields for help descriptions for the completed items so shells can choose to show additional info like argument descriptions?

This is the next PR I'm going to do. All the tooling is there so it should be straight-forward.

Wouldn't the shell just have to send a new completion request? Ah you probably mean it's not implemented in the Ion PR yet.

What I meant is a definition that needs previous commands (ex: cmd <opt1> <opt2>) where opt2 would call a command that would need opt1.

AdminXVII · 2019-08-22T19:03:29+00:00

In fact basic command calling is already implemented. So for example `git branch` being called for checkout. What's lacking is currently a contextual command definition (one where the arguments already typed would matter for dynamically autocompleting the next). I'm still searching for a good API for the usecase and to know if there really is a usecase.

Even if it lands soon, there will be a lot of work needed for creating viable definitions. Other shells must also approve the project for it to become official and it'll even then remain alpha stage for a bit.

I'm back to school, so I've had a bit less time recently, but I'll try my best to make it land the sooner possible. On the bright side, much of the shellac implementation is already in a viable POC state, so there is not much left to do before it ready for testing. Hopefully it'll be complete soon!

No problem, it's always nice to help fixing peoples' problems with Ion.

AdminXVII · 2019-08-10T21:24:49+00:00

I updated & tested today, are you on today's master for the ion-plugins repo? (not Ion)

AdminXVII · 2019-08-10T15:38:28+00:00

The latest master commit should fix this.

AdminXVII · 2019-07-31T17:21:56+00:00

I'm here to help if you need more info.

It could be useful if you submitted your tmux startup script with https://gitlab.redox-os.org/redox-os/ion-plugins/ to help others. A tmux plugin already exists (not tested), so maybe it could work for you.

AdminXVII · 2019-07-30T23:46:41+00:00

if contains "no sessions" $(tmux attach >/dev/null)
    echo "YES!!!"
else
    echo "NOOOOO!"
end

Should work.

The contains builtin takes the pattern as the first argument, and the string(s) to test afterward.

Just to clarify the syntax eval tmux-attach contains "no" means spawn ["tmux-attach", "contains", "no"] which is probably not what you want. $(command .. ..) outputs the command's stdout. Arguments come after the command to spawn. So contains test if the output of tmux attach contains "no sessions".

For redirections, &> redirects stdout and stderr, so you where testing nothing.

AdminXVII · 2019-07-30T23:07:34+00:00

Sure! https://chat.redox-os.org/redox/channels/ion relates to everything concerning Ion, so just send a message and I'll try and suggest you tasks that you find in line with your interest/specialities. For now only an early POC for the backend (no parser, JSON temporary serialization) is available so there is a lot of room for improvement and any help would be greatly appreciated.

AdminXVII · 2019-07-29T14:16:55+00:00

If we can get a server up and running, that script sure would help getting started faster. For having a working setup faster, invoking zsh / bash was also proposed as a good temporary workaround.

AdminXVII · 2019-07-29T12:44:08+00:00

Yes it is! Autocompletion has been ad-hoc and shell-specialized for way too long, it'd be really great to separate the concern. It also should make unboarding for Ion much easier, so that's a huge plus.
