New version 0.4.1 is out!

[Pako]

Following post Rebuild "Jump if double event" from 0.4.0.r1397 I decided to try to continue the development of version 0.4.X.
There are several reasons why it is more promising.
It is very likely that (at least initially) there will be many problems.
But we must try it, otherwise we can not find and remove possible bugs.
If you have any problem, please report it here and if necessary go back to an older version for now.

This is fantastic, thanks for continuing the development of EG.

News in the build 0.4.1.r1512:
- Improved plugin OSE
- WinUsb.py - fixed path for download driver files
- Plugin System - action Start Application - added option "Trigger event when application is terminated"
- Plugin System - action Play Sound - added option "Trigger event after completion"
- New version (0.6.1) of the plugin XBMC2

Hi Pako,

It's great to see someone doing development still on Eventghost. In the 0.4 versions you're publishing, the "DynamicWebserver" is the very old experimental webserver code, and the real "Webserver" plugin is missing. The "Webserver" version was much more complete and had Jinja template parsing.

I'm happy to help retrofit this stuff back in, (especially since so much of my own system depends on it) but I don't want to fork it. What's the best way to help?

Maybe this is because the DOWNLOAD_ROOT = "http://www.eventghost.net/downloads/winusb/%s/" % PLATFORM doesen't exists anymore?

Maybe this is because the DOWNLOAD_ROOT = "http://www.eventghost.net/downloads/winusb/%s/" % PLATFORM doesen't exists anymore?

No, this is not the correct explanation. This path really exists (PLATFORM = x86 or x64). It's just not accessible.
However, files that are located there, you can download.
I do not know what's wrong. I tried the plugin PC Remote Controller (which uses the same library) and it works well (I use x86).

Hi kingtd !
Thanks for the warning and the offer of help.
It is possible that I mistakenly published an old version of the Dynamic Webserver plugin.
But where is the right one - the latest?
The original Webserver plugin was removed from the installation file based on this topic Voting - plugins not included in the installation file
According to the contributions of other users, the new Dynamic Webserver plugin replace the old plugin completely.
I personally can not to assess because I have for this plugin absolutely no use and do not know anything about it.
Help is welcome.
You can work on improving the plugin and publish a new versions. Preferably in the topic Dynamic Webserver (variable processing).

Hi Pako,

I understand the confusion, but in this case, the voters are wrong. =) Bitmonster did a great deal of work on the Webserver plugin to incorporate the changes and even surpassed the changes I had made to the "DynamicWebserver" plugin. So the DynamicWebserver should be deprecated and the real Webserver readded.

[Pako]

It is a pity that you did not warn in time to when the discussion took place.
However it is not a problem to return the Webserver plugin into installer file and to exclude the Dynamic Webserver plugin.
It is certain that the Webserver plugin has all the features like the Dynamic Webserver plugin?
Attached is the Webserver plugin. Can you please confirm that it is the latest version of this plugin?

Thanks, Pako

Hi Pako,

I totally agree - I thought eventghost was dead and I've had a lot of crazy stuff going on lately, so I wasn't checking the board like I had in the past. Sorry to make things any more difficult - I'd actually like to help! I've attached the latest/best Webserver plugin that I could find, which is slightly newer than the one you linked I believe.

Has there been any consideration of moving the code to an SVN type system where we can help?

Thanks!

[Pako]

I think you you are wrong. It can not be the latest/best version. Bitmonster then still went on to develop plugin.

I can give an example:
When you browse the SVN repository, you'll find a version r1252 (modified Tue Dec 1 19:57:37 2009 UTC).
There it says this:

Code: Select all

- Added an action to send events to another EG webserver, so this plugin can be used as a replacement for the Network Sender and the Network Receiver plugin.

In your "latest/best" version but this new action (SendEvent) is missing,
whereas in my version there is.

[kingtd]

I think you're right Pako. I did not have that update.
