script-shell

App for AsteroidOS that provides an interface for running scripts on your watch.

script-shell lists scripts (executable files) in /home/ceres/script-shell. It then lets you run those scripts and displays some stdout messages and the state on the watch display.

Build and install

First install the SDK: https://wiki.asteroidos.org/index.php/Installing_the_SDK

# build package
export CMAKE_PROGRAM_PATH=/usr/local/oecore-x86_64/sysroots/armv7vehf-neon-oe-linux-gnueabi/usr/bin/
source /usr/local/oecore-x86_64/environment-setup-armv7vehf-neon-oe-linux-gnueabi
cmake -B build -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr
cmake --build build --target package

# install package
scp build/*.ipk root@192.168.2.15:.

Conventions for scripts

script-shell scans and displays all executable files installed in /home/ceres/script-shell.

Files must be executable (chmod 700 script.sh). Else they will be ingored.

File name

1. Files will be sorted alphanumericly.
2. Leading digits, followed by a _ will not be displayed.
3. File-extensions (everything after the .) will be ommited too.
4. - and _ signs will be replaced by a space ( ).

Example filename: 01_Hello-World.sh

Example script

#!/bin/sh

# Lines on stdout that beginn with a `->` are getting displayed on the watch.
# All other text output will be ignored.
echo "-> Hello World"
echo "ignored output"

# A return value of 0 indicatates success. 
# All other return values are interpreted as error.
exit 0
