FanControl2

[RobvanderDoes]

Would it be possible to add an extra entry for FanControl2 when it's installed (IP-box/fancontrol), just as is the case for Oscam, L4L and several other plugins?

[jbleyel]

It will be the right time to discuss about openwebif plugins.
A base feature for plugins are already included but not finished yet.
There is was also a missing example plugin.

I have planed a first plugin and move the package manager feature out of the openwebif into this first plugin.

!!!! PLANED !!!!!

[RobvanderDoes]

Thanks.

Hi @RobvanderDoes, please try the new 1.1 branch version.
It's not the right way but should work as new browser window.

The webif of the fancontrol needs a complete rebuild to use it as inline feature like autotimer.
The current webif of fancontrol is crappy and from the last century. ;-)

[RobvanderDoes]

Hmmm, sorry to say, but I copied all the files from the plugin-folder of the 1.1 branch to my box and no Fancontrol2 shows up under 'Extra's'.

[jbleyel]

please call ../api/external and provide the result here

[jbleyel]

The current solution will only work if you have only the openwebif installed and NOT the Webinterface plugin.

please call ../api/external and provide the result here

Okay .. the loaded_plugins var is not empty.
For testing i have called
loaded_plugins.append( ("fancontrol", None, "Fan Control 2", '11') )
in base.py of openwebif and i get the menu entry.

Strange ????

[jbleyel]

I think there is a little bug near by
https://github.com/OpenPLi/enigma2-plugins/blob/master/fancontrol2/src/plugin.py#L1253

If you only call this ..
addExternalChild( ("fancontrol", root) )

[RobvanderDoes]

But I use https://github.com/oe-alliance/enigma2-plugins/tree/2.3/fancontrol2

[jbleyel]

It's the same code.

Do you have this file on your box?
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/WebInterface/web/external.xml

Do you have this file?
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/OpenWebif/pluginshook.src

And is this
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/WebInterface/WebChilds/Toplevel.py
File exactly the same like this
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/OpenWebif/pluginshook.src

[jbleyel]

The fancontrol writes logs -> FClog
Please check the log for:
use new WebIF
use old WebIF
use new OpenWebIF

[RobvanderDoes]

Log has "use new OpenWebIF" entries.

Do you have this file on your box?
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/WebInterface/web/external.xml

No: where should I get it from?

Do you have this file?
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/OpenWebif/pluginshook.src

Yes

And is this
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/WebInterface/WebChilds/Toplevel.py
File exactly the same like this
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/OpenWebif/pluginshook.src

The first one is a symbolic link to the latter.

[RobvanderDoes]

Do you have this file on your box?
/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/Extensions/WebInterface/web/external.xml

No: where should I get it from?

Found it, but adding that makes no difference.

[jbleyel]

The log should say "use new OpenWebIF" if you have no external.xml .. this is correct.
The external.xml file existence means you have the DMM webinterface.

I will do some prints inside the openwebif for debugging.
Please remove the external.xml if you have copied this file manually.

[jbleyel]

please get the latest versio of 1.1 and check the debug output of base.py

[RobvanderDoes]

Now Fancontrol2 shows neatly under 'Extra's'.
Thanks!

[jbleyel]

Okay.. i close this issue here and remove the debug print.
