TFStubViz

A Qt based GUI for the software emulator for Tinkerforge Hardware (see https://github.com/PlayWithIt/TFStubserver)

In order to build this project you'll need the TFStubserver project too.

While TFStubserver is purely command line based, this user interface includes the command line emulator and offers basic support to display current sensors and has the possibility to manually override sensor values via sliders and shows the content of a 'simulated screen'.

The UI might look like this with a sample configuration for sensors and an LCD:

Requirements:

• Linux
• g++ 10 or higher (C++ std 17)
• clang++ 10 (llvm) or higher should work too
• Qt 5.4

Compile:

• be sure that TFStubserver is installed too in the same folder as TFStubViz
• be sure that qmake is in your PATH and points to the correct Qt version e.g. use export PATH=~/Qt/5.4/gcc_64/bin:$PATH
• run make (or something like make -j4) in the base directory for a debug-build

Run:

• start build/TFStubViz
• or switch to TFStubserver/src/stubserver and run {your-path}/TFStubViz -d homestation.properties as a full example.
• you can switch the configuration properties also by menu
• the default port is 4225, you can change this with the option -p port
• start brickv (or your app) and use port 4225 instead of 4223
