To enable the feature, the `asu_url` option in the config.js needs to be set. + +## Installation + +Place the `www/` folder somewhere web accessible. Then use the `collect.py` script to update the `config.json` file: + +``` +./misc/collect.py scan "https://firmware.example.com/{version}/targets/{target}" ~/openwrt/bin/ www/ +``` + +This should do it. + +The https link is used to access image files. There are different variables available: + +* `{version}`: Version in the profiles.json files. E.g. `19.07.4` or `SNAPSHOT`. +* `{target}`: Main- and sub target, E.g. `ath79/generic`. +* `{base}`: Distinct path to the targets directory. E.g. `releases/18.06.8/targets/` -OpenWrt master has a feature to create json files: `Global build settings ---> [*] Create JSON info files per build image`. +The `collect.py` script searches the `~/openwrt/bin/` directory for `profile.json` files. These are merged into `overview.json` files (one per release). The `overview.json` files are then placed into `www/data/` and `www/config.js` is updated. -The included python script can merge all these files for a new data.json file: `./collect.py bin/ bin2/ > data.json` +To let OpenWrt create `profile.json` files, enable the build setting (`make menuconfig`): +`Global build settings ---> [*] Create JSON info files per build image`. -The data JSON file can also include a link that will overwrite downloadLink from `config.json`. +If the option is not available (OpenWrt 18.06 or 19.07.3), apply commit [openwrt/openwrt@881ed09](https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/commit/881ed09ee6e23f6c224184bb7493253c4624fb9f). -## Contributions +### Scrape -It would be nice to have more features.
