as discussed in the context of Daniel Rogge's proposed parameter patch, I have moved ahead with redis integration into master.
http://git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git/shortlog/refs/heads/redis-integration now has all the footwork to integrate and build redis-server, redis-cli, the hiredis C API, and the Python bindings from a snapshot. It also contains linuxcnc.in changes to by default start redis-server when running linuxcnc. This branch does not contain any code in LinuxCNC which actually uses redis; it's just the parts kit needed to do so. see README here. http://git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git/blob/f7352315a7153166518ffe6efbcd2caaee021780:/src/redis/README This is a lot of lines of C and then some other languages. It is a stopgap measure until we build on a platform which can apt-get the packages which just arent available for 10.04. This branch builds also on 8.04. I will clean this branch a bit, and merge it into master in the coming days. --- As for using redis, I'm working on redoing Daniel Rogge's patch to use redis, and this progresses nicely. The foundations work, the whole thing is unpolished, and parameter persistence to replace emc.var isnt in place yet. Daniel & folks have signed up as guinea pigs ;) For the curious, the WIP branch is here: http://git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git/shortlog/refs/heads/redis-params . It is based on the above, but is not ready for merging yet. The finished branch will contain examples to use this API from Python, standalone and in a PyGTK app. It is in principle possible to integrate this into a TkInter app too, based on the twisted tkinter reactor. That I would add only if I get a clear indication of desire. so: toldya, warnedya. - Michael ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
