Blueforcer/awtrix-ng v1.1.1

on GitHub

Added

• 🎉 The AWTRIX Hub is here! Discover community-made flows and icons, create your own in the Pixel Studio, and send your favourites straight to your display at awtrix.de. The Web UI automatically checks Hub-installed scripts for updates and applies them with one click, preserving their settings and protecting local changes.
• The live display on a page of its own: http://<awtrix-ip>/fullscreen, made for an iframe on a Home Assistant dashboard (#29).
• Scripts can declare their Hub icons with # @icons .... The editor and Apps tab show missing icons and install them in one action.
• The browser tab carries the hostname, so several AWTRIX open at once are told apart (#18).
• Scripts can swallow a button press: return true from on_button().
• Scripts can switch the matrix with display.power() and read its state with display.is_on() (#56).
• The web UI checks for updates. The System page compares the running version with the latest GitHub release and offers the download for exactly your board; the dashboard shows update available. The check runs in the browser, the clock never talks to GitHub. GET /api/v1/device now names the file it updates from as updateImage.
• Scripts can react to the music. On an ESP32-S3 with a speaker, music.bands(), music.level() and music.beat() describe what the radio or a stored MP3 is playing, timed to the speaker. A spectrum display is one line: bar_chart(music.bands(16, 8), "Rainbow", false). Other boards answer zeros, so the same script runs everywhere.
• More DIY audio hardware is supported. pinI2sMclk supplies DACs requiring a master clock, while pinAmpEnable controls amplifiers with an enable input.
• DIY panels can select their physical LED colour order in the Panel settings (#54).
• Directional app transitions can run in their normal or reversed direction (#49).
• Auto brightness can be switched directly from the dashboard; manual brightness stays disabled while it is active (#38).
• Backup creation has an All switch that selects every available category at once (#43).
• progress(), bar_chart() and line_chart() take an optional x offset.
• Script HTTP requests accept cap to choose how much of a response may be retained, bounded by available memory.
• Scripting tutorials on the documentation site.

Changed

• The button webhook sends JSON. buttonCallback now posts {"button":"left","state":true,"uid":"…"} with Content-Type: application/json instead of a form-encoded body. A listener that reads button=…&state=1 needs adjusting.
• Berry scripts now use available memory instead of most fixed caps. Besides removing scriptLimit and scriptMaxBytes, fixed limits on configuration fields, select options, imports, shared values, stores and HTTP request data were replaced with available-memory checks. Sending the two removed keys is ignored rather than refused, but a backup or an automation that still writes them needs looking at.
• Berry VMs, regular expressions and GIF decoding retain less temporary memory, improving reliability when several scripts or animations run together.

Fixed

• An I2S amplifier crackled and hissed from power-on until the first sound played: the I2S lines floated until then. They are now held low from boot.
• A notification with an empty soundRtttl was refused outright, so clients that send their whole schema - Home Assistant among them - got nothing at all (#27).
• An app pushed under a built-in name like Temperature was stored and listed, but the panel kept showing the built-in. The pushed app takes the name over now (#37).
• An icon that is a PNG under a .jpg name counted as drawn, leaving a black gap where the picture should be. The column goes back to the text and the log names the file (#23).
• One time zone the browser does not know ended the System page halfway, with no maintenance and no backup below MQTT (#25).
• Files in downloaded backup ZIPs now carry the backup creation time instead of invalid 1979/1601 timestamps (#44).
• The Icons tab could show an empty Hub area, and the framed icon editor was not told which Hub to publish to.
• Delete and duplicate in the icon editor were blank grey chips. Ships with the Hub, not with the firmware, so it is already fixed (#30).
