# TODO (from api_info.lua) - The endpoint function info in response objects is incorrect when the global function is called with a blank argument, to cleanly solve this, module/function resolution should be moved from main() to the request object FIX: handle mod/func resolution and calling in request:handle() which returns a response object then send it using response:send("json") - fix up init script handling as described here: http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/packages#packaging.a.service - versioning/updating * versioning scheme * create feed location (e.g. www.doodle3d.com/firmware/packages) (see here: http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/packages#third.party.packages) * create opkg (already present in bin/ar71xx/packages as .ipk file) * create listing info for package list (checksum, size, etc. ...is this inside the .ipk file?) * find a way to add the feed url to opkg.conf (directly in files during image building?) * determine how opkg decides what is 'upgradeable' * at this point manual updating should be possible, now find out how to implement in lua (execve? or write a minimalistic binding to libopkg?) * expose through info API and/or system API; also provide a way (future) to flash a new image - dynamic AP name based on partial MAC - require api functions which change state to be invoked as post request - add functions to test network connectivity in steps (ifup? hasip? resolve? ping?) to network or test - add system api module? with check-updates/do-update/etc - write a simple client script to autotest as much of the api as possible - extend the client script to run arbitrary post/get requests # TODO (from main.lua) - document REST API (mention rq IDs and endpoint information, list endpoints+args+CRUD type, unknown values are empty fields) (describe fail/error difference: fail is valid rq..could not comply, while error is invalid rq _or_ system error) - use a slightly more descriptive success/error definition (e.g. errortype=system/missing-arg/generic) - how to handle requests which need a restart of uhttpd? (e.g. network/openap) - a plain GET request (no ajax/script) runs the risk of timing out on lengthy operations: implement polling in API to get progress updates? (this would require those operations to run in a separate daemon process which can be monitored by the CGI handler) (!!!is this true? it could very well be caused by a uhttpd restart) - protect dump function against reference loops (see: http://lua-users.org/wiki/TableSerialization, json also handles this well) - (this is an old todo item from network:available(), might still be relevant at some point) extend netconf interface to support function arguments (as tables) so wifihelper functionality can be integrated but how? idea: pass x_args={arg1="a",arg2="2342"} for component 'x' or: allow alternative for x="y" --> x={action="y", arg1="a", arg2="2342"} in any case, arguments should be put in a new table to pass to the function (since order is undefined it must be an assoc array) # TODO - in captive portal mode, https is not redirected - see if updating works when a new version is 'released' (probably needs a real feed) - perhaps opkg+safeboot could be useful in the update mechanism? - licensing (also for hardware and firmware) + credits for external code and used ideas http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2007/04/pick-a-license-any-license.html - add more config options to package, which should act as defaults for a config file on the system; candidates: reconf.WWW_RENAME_NAME, wifihelper.{AP_ADDRESS, AP_NETMASK, (NET)} https://github.com/2ion/ini.lua - add config option to compile sources using luac _or_ add an option to minify the lua code - add dependency on either wr703n or mr3020 (and probably comment it out again to avoid being to conservative...) - relocatabilty of package (take root prefix into consideration everywhere) # Logos Check for inspiration.
