What's new

Updates from the web app

  • Settings now shows the version the Pi runs and checks GitHub for a newer release. When there is one, it shows what's new and an Install button. The sidebar says so too.
  • Install downloads the new version, checks it against SHA256SUMS, makes sure it runs on the board, swaps it in and restarts Glovebox. It takes a minute or two.
  • The car's drive stays connected the whole time, so the car keeps recording. If the car is paired for keep-awake, Glovebox keeps it awake until the update is done, so the Pi can't lose power partway.
  • It works on any board running Glovebox from the image or install.sh, 64-bit or 32-bit ARM. The previous version is kept as /usr/local/bin/glovebox.old.

Settings

  • The Setup page is now Settings, with a gear icon. Old #/setup links still work.

Upgrading from 0.3.0

0.3.0 doesn't have the update button yet, so this one upgrade is done by hand. After this, updates come from Settings.

  • Glovebox image on a Pi Zero 2 W: download glovebox-linux-arm64 from this release on your computer, then copy it to the Pi and install it (use your Pi's address and login):

    scp glovebox-linux-arm64 glovebox@glovebox.local:/tmp/glovebox
    ssh glovebox@glovebox.local 'sudo install -m 755 /tmp/glovebox /usr/local/bin/glovebox && sudo systemctl restart glovebox'
  • Installed with install.sh: run the install command below again. Your settings and recordings are kept.

Install

New card: flash glovebox-v0.4.0-image.zip with Raspberry Pi Imager (Choose OS > Use custom), put the card in the Pi and plug it into the car's glovebox USB port. After a couple of minutes, join the Glovebox-XXXX Wi-Fi network with your phone: a setup wizard opens for your Wi-Fi, backups, extra drives and car.

Already running Raspberry Pi OS Lite (64-bit)? Install without reflashing, then open http://<the Pi's name>.local:8080 for the same wizard:

curl -fsSL https://github.com/lubaxe/glovebox/releases/download/v0.4.0/install.sh | sudo bash
