This a feature release of the app potato-mesh v0.5.0. It contains a major refactor, changes all defaults (please read carefully below), enables federation between instances and now knows about lora preset, region frequency, and channel names, plus many bug fixes.
- in production, make sure to set an
INSTANCE_DOMAIN=example.com, otherwise we attempt reverse DNS - breaking: streamlined environmental variables for simplicity:
MESH_SERIALCONNECTIONDEFAULT_CHANNELCHANNELDEFAULT_FREQUENCYFREQUENCYMAP_CENTER_LATandMAP_CENTER_LONMAP_CENTER="38.761944,-27.090833"MAX_NODE_DISTANCE_KMMAX_DISTANCEMATRIX_ROOMCONTACT_LINKand does not have to be Matrix
- breaking: moved database and config to respective XDG directories (the app has migration built in, but make sure to update your backup scripts)
- turn on
ENERGY_SAVING=1if you want to query remote/solar nodes but don't want to cycle their power too much - add a
/metricsendpoint for prometheus (thanks @nicjansma) - deployed production instances of potato-mesh now talk to each other (turn off with
FEDERATION=0)
