A simple OpenWrt firmware selector using autocompletion. Uses plain HTML/CSS/JavaScript. Checkout the Demo.
This is a Fork/Mirror of the official OpenWrt version, but without OpenWrt specific changes like the feedback link and continuous integration scripts.
- Download the sources and change the working directory
- Start webserver (e.g.
python3 -m http.server) - Go to http://localhost:8000/www/ in your web browser
Configure with config.js.
Place the www/ folder somewhere web accessible. Then use the collect.py script to collect all the profiles.json files a OpenWrt build has generated. The data will be written to www/data/ and www/config.json will be updated:
Scrape from a web site:
./misc/collect.py https://downloads.openwrt.org www/
or via rsync (faster):
./misc/collect.py rsync://downloads.openwrt.org/downloads www/
or scan a local OpenWrt build folder:
./misc/collect.py ~/openwrt/bin www/
This should do it!
Further arguments for collect.py:
--formatted: Output formatted JSON data.--version-pattern <VERSION_PATTERN>: Only handle versions that match a regular expression.--insert-latest-release: Insert an artificial release called "latest" that contains the latest image for every device.--latest-release-pattern <VERSION_PATTERN>: Only handle versions that match a regular expression.
Notes about config.js
image_url: Download location of the actual images.info_url: Link template to some information page.
Allowed variables in info_url: {id}, {target}, {version}, {title}.
The collect.py script merges data from profile.json files generated by OpenWrt. To enable generation, go to the build settings (make menuconfig):
Global build settings ---> [*] Create JSON info files per build image.
If the option is not available (OpenWrt 18.06 or 19.07.3), apply commit openwrt/openwrt@881ed09.
ASU is a build server that builds OpenWrt images with a given list of packages on request. The firmware-selector can be used as an interface to send these requests and to download the images when finished.
The Firmware Selector allows to define a script to be placed in the /etc/uci-defaults/ folder of the OpenWrt image. These scripts are executed once on the first reboot and then deleted. See the OpenWrt documentation on this topic.
