Hi Ray and all,
just downloaded and installed the OSBo IMG on a BeagleBone Black – runs fine (still need to get OpenSprinkler hardware, though).
Our project Yaler provides a simple way to enable Web and SSH access from everywhere, without port forwarding, via Ethernet, WiFi, 3G…
E.g. the steps in https://yaler.net/beaglebone-ubuntu allow access to my OSBo at http://tamberg-osbo.yaler.net/ (504 or empty page = offline).
The mobile UI at http://rayshobby.net/apps/sprinklers also works fine, just enter HOST:80 instead of IP:80, and the default password.
What do you think, could this simplify existing use cases, or enable new ones?
Kind regards,
tambergJust gave it a try on OSBo and it works surprisingly well. Very nice. I definitely think this will make OSPi and OSBo more user friendly. I am also thinking of how to get this work for the microcontroller-based OpenSprinkler. I know you have examples for Arduino with the standard Arduino Ethernet shield. The tricky part is that OpenSprinkler uses Microchip’s ENC28J60 and Jeelab’s Ethercard library. I checked yaler library for Arduino, seems it should be pretty simple to adapt to Ethercard library. I will probably shoot you an email offline to ask about some technical details. Thanks again for the excellent work!
