Hello all,
I posted a while ago about making a remote access API for LinuxCNC, and having a remote user interface. I've been working on it, so I figured I should actually post some of it so others could take a look. I have a client side GUI in the works, but for now I'll post the server/browser end of things. Please take a look on the wiki: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Rockhopper_Web_Server Installation instructions are at the bottom of the wiki page. One thing I know I need to add is a username/password system so people can't just log-in and e-stop (or worse) your machine. At the moment https mode is disabled, but it works and can easily be turned back on. Right now the project doesn't yet state a license. I was thinking I would use GPL3 - is there a compelling reason not to use that license (vs. GLP2)? The server does not statically link with anything from linuxcnc, just python "import" statements. Anyway, I'm on my way, working on a client side GUI as well, written in Java for cross-platform goodness. I have a remote back-plotter running, and a client side status screen. Things are going a bit slow learning the various Java frameworks, but it's getting there. Please let me know what you think, if you have any trouble using/installing it, any suggestions, etc..
