Commotion-apps contains a LuCI application portal for OpenWRT. It relies on the Commotion service manager to find nearby applications on the network.
The LuCI application portal adds some pages to the Commotion-Router menu. The main page shows all local applications on the mesh that have been approved by the node administrator. There are also pages for creating an application, as well as administrator pages for approving/blacklisting apps and changing settings related to applications.
Commotion-apps is selected as a default build option in Commotion-Router (https://github.com/opentechinstitute/commotion-router).
Applications are advertised on a Commotion mesh network using Avahi/mDNS. Each application should have a .service
file in the /etc/avahi/services/
directory. The structure of the service file should follow this template:
<?xml version="1.0" standalone='no'?><!--*-nxml-*-->
<!DOCTYPE service-group SYSTEM "avahi-service.dtd">
<service-group>
<name replace-wildcards="yes">Service Name on %h</name>
