FFFlash

This Program helps to manage Freifunk APIfiles.

To use it you need an existing APIfile. Create one here if necessary.

Commandline

There is no configuration.

Everything ffflash needs to know is passed each time as shell parameters. (It's not much).

  • To get help, use ffflash.py -h:

    usage: ffflash [-h] [-s SIDECARS [SIDECARS ...]] [-n NODELIST] [-r RANKFILE]
               [-rc RANKCLIENTS] [-rf RANKOFFLINE] [-rn RANKONLINE]
               [-rp RANKPOSITION] [-rw RANKWELCOME] [-d] [-v]
               APIfile
    
  • You always need to pass the location to your APIfile.

  • --nodelist or -n expects the full url of your nodelist.json file, generated by the ffmap-backend.

  • Do some number crunching and store the scores in the --rankfile. (Only works if passed together with an --nodelist).

    • --rankwelcome sets the initial score to start with.
    • --rankposition increases score by that value if any location data is provided.
    • --rankonline increases score by that value if node is online.
    • --rankoffline decreases score by that value if node is offline.
    • --rankclients increases score per client by that value.
  • Pass one or more --sidecars (or -s) to merge content from there into the APIfile.

  • Use --dry (or -d) to preview all changes. Then, nothing is written to the APIfile!

  • If both -s and -n are omitted, no action is taken. So to just display your APIfile you could use this:

    ffflash.py /path/to/your/ffapi_file.json -d
    

    (makes no sense anyway, better use cat)

  • The --verbose (or -v) switch just displays more information.
