Quick Run

  • Download the sources and change the working directory
  • Start webserver (e.g. python3 -m http.server)
  • Go to http://localhost:8000/www/ in your web browser

Configure with config.js.

Installation

Steps:

  1. Place the www/ folder somewhere web accessible.
  2. Set image_url in www/config.json to where the images are located.
    Example: https://downloads.openwrt.org
  3. Organize the images like on downloads.openwrt.org.
    Example: https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/23.05.4/targets/ramips/mt7621/openwrt-23.05.4-ramips-mt7621-dlink_dir-1935-a1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
    (path scheme is <image_url>/releases/<version>/targets/<target>/<subtarget>/)
  4. Place a single .versions.json at image_path. This is optional.
    Example: https://downloads.openwrt.org/.versions.json
{
  "stable_version": "23.05.4",
  "versions_list": ["23.05.4", "19.07.10"]
}

Note: These values can be overwritten with versions and default_version in the config.js file.

  1. Place .overview.json files in each version folder.
    Example: https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/23.05.4/.overview.json

They can be generated by this shell command:

for VERSION_PATH in 19.07.10/ 23.05.4/; do
  jq -s '{ release: .[0].version_number, profiles: [.[] | .target as $target | .profiles | keys[] as $k | { id: ($k), titles: (.[$k] | .titles), target: $target }] }' $(find "$VERSION_PATH" -iname 'profiles.json') > $VERSION_PATH/.overview.json
done

Generate OpenWrt JSON

The .overview.json file for a version is created from all profile.json files that are generated by OpenWrt when images are created. To enable generation, go to the build settings (make menuconfig): Global build settings ---> [*] Create JSON info files per build image.

If the option is not available (OpenWrt 18.06 or 19.07.3), apply commit openwrt/openwrt@881ed09.

Attended SysUpgrade (ASU)

ASU is a build server that builds OpenWrt images with a given list of packages on request. The firmware-selector can be used as an interface to send these requests and to download the images when finished.

UCI-Defaults

The Firmware Selector allows to define a script to be placed in the /etc/uci-defaults/ folder of the OpenWrt image. These scripts are executed once on the first reboot and then deleted. See the OpenWrt documentation on this topic.
