Release of Netmon 1.0 software for monitoring and administration of free networks
by Clemens John 30 Jan '17

30 Jan '17

Dear interested developers, Netmon is an OpenSource software for monitoring and administration of free networks. After the preview release in December today I'm proud to announce the availability of the first stable version of the second generation of Netmon. The idea of Netmon 1.0 is based on the first Netmon software from 2009 that we built for Freifunk Nordwest. But this one is technologically different. Today Netmon is not a single software anymore. Instead it comes with multiple well circumscribed applications all together building up an ecosystem for monitoring and administration of free networks. Netmon API-Server: Developing and administration is fun +++ By making the datastorage vertically scallable life for administrators will be much easier on growing userbase and increasing numbers of monitorable devices. By using well tested and broadly known Frameworks (MySQL,Laravel and Composer) updating the datastorage and version migrations will become a breeze. Beside this the datastorage is accessible through a stateless REST API using the well known json:api specification (http://jsonapi.org/) which will make developing client applications real fun. While the API makes the data accessible in a uniform format it also manages an authentication, authorisation and a validation layer. Check out whats called the Netmon API-Server at: https://git.ffnw.de/netmon-sc/api-server Netmon API-Server Modules: Diversity is not a show stopper +++ The next feature will help diversity to not become a show-stopper. When talking about free networks there are so many different approaches and setups no one would ever be able to combine this into a single application. So do I. Therefore the Netmon API-Server supports modularization. Whichever datamodel or feature you need: build a module for it and get what you want! By default the Netmon API-Server only comes with resources for user and authorisation management. To make it capable for monitoring devices (freifunk nodes) this release provides a first initial module. This is called the Netmon API-Server Devices module: https://git.ffnw.de/netmon-sc/api-devices Netmon Web-Client: Layer 8 wants it easy! +++ The Netmon Web-Client is the application that most people will get in touch with. So it needs to be quite easy. If you would have to send a cable telling someone how to use the Web-Client after plugging in his device it would be really cheap: "Signup->Login->Own your device [STOP]". The Netmon Web-Client is also the place where I want to encourage you to Make Netmon Great Again!1! If Mr. Trump would be a software (bad developers?) Netmon would be his opponent. Because it stands for freedom, diversity and openness. If you are a developer interested in building beatiful web applications using latest technology, the Netmon Web-Client is the place to be. Built using the Angular 2 typscript framework, the Material 2 design framework combined with the Angular-Flex layout engine you can get a whole different view on modern web application development. Desktop and mobile (currently only chrome mobile, firefox has some trouble) capable. Developers please follow our mailinglist, ask questions and bring up your ideas: https://lists.ffnw.de/mailman/listinfo/netmon-dev Netmon Node-Client: For the embedded +++ All previous mentioned applications dont make fun if you dont have data to manage. So this is the smallest but nevertheless important one. Written in LUA the Netmon Node-Client feeds the API with the latest status data from your device using simple http requests. If you want to try it out, please notice to use the main mac adress of your device (all lowercase, no double colons) to own the device in the Netmon Web-Client. Checkout: * Source: https://git.ffnw.de/netmon-sc/node-client * Package-Feed: https://git.ffnw.de/netmon-sc/openwrt-feed * FFNW updated siteconf: https://git.ffnw.de/netmon-sc/siteconf Get a glimpse: the Freifunk Nordwest production environment +++ At the end of every anouncement there needs to be something to show. And I'm not going to disappoint you. The current state of the application does not display that much data as the old Netmon or the Meshviewer did. In fact it currently only displays if a device is only or offline. But I worked really hard to prepare a base for you, that can be scientifically and practically considered a good approach to solve a lot of trouble that we had in the past. Making it last for years is up2you. Freifunk Nordwest Netmon Web-Client: https://netmon.ffnw.de Freifunk Nordwest Netmon API-Server: https://api.netmon.ffnw.de Best whishes Clemens John P.S. I'm going to l take a short break now and will be back on feb 6th

Neuentwurf einer Kartenanwendung im Netmon Universum
by Clemens John 07 Dec '16

07 Dec '16

Hi, Oliver hatte vor einigen Tagen schon einen Thread zur Optimierung der bestehenden Freifunk Karte geöffnet. Ich würde an das Thema gerne anknüpfen, allerdings mit dem Vorschlag des Neuentwurfs einer Kartenanwendung im Netmon Universum. Wenn ich das richtig sehe, dann hat die bestehende Karte relativ fundamentale Probleme beim Anzeigen großer Datensätze und ich glaube mit Blick auf die Zukunft lohnt es sich dieses Thema nochmal im speziellen anzugehen. Falls da Interesse besteht, habe ich hier unter dem Punkt "Map-Client" einmal kurz alles zusammengefasst was mir an relevanten Punkten dazu einfällt: https://pad.freifunk.net/p/netmon-module Viele Grüße Clemens

Netmon preview released
by Clemens John 06 Dec '16

06 Dec '16

Hi folks, after two years of hard development I'm proud to release a preview of the new Netmon software compilation. The release currently consists of three applications: 1. The Netmon Server +++ The Netmon Server is written in PHP using the Laravel framework and provides: * a database to store data * a fully featured usermanagement * an authentication layer using stateless token authentication implemented on JWT * an authorisation layer following the Attribute Based Access Control pattern * a software stack that provides a basic REST API (CRUD) with HATEOAS support using the JSON:API format * a module layer that allows extending the basic server and turning it into a fully featured application using the module pattern More informations and installation manual can be found at: https://git.ffnw.de/netmon-sc/api-server 2. The Devices-Module (extending the Netmon Server) +++ The Devices module is written in PHP and provides: * routes to manage devices (better known as Freifunk nodes) * routes to manage statusdata for devices To install the Devices module please take a look at: https://git.ffnw.de/netmon-sc/api-devices 3. The Netmon Web-Client +++ The Netmon Web-Client is written in Typescript using the Angular 2 framework and provides * A GUI to turn the data provided by the Netmon Server into a web application that can be used by humans To install the Netmon Web-Client please take a look at: https://git.ffnw.de/netmon-sc/web-client Extendable - Maintainable - Scalable +++ All three appications are developed to be heavily extendable by using the module pattern. The size of each module is made handsome small so that each module can be developed and maintained by a single person. This allows the software to grow fast but stay maintainable and customizable all time. The software compilations architecture in general is designed to be a distributed system. To benefit from this I took care of the REST API to be truly stateless thus allowing it to be scaled up horizontally verry easily if your userbase grows. Development status +++ The status of the software is preview - better known as beta. This means the software is mainly feature complete but is missing documentation, bugs occur sometimes and not all parts are as shiny as they would be in a stable release. The first stable version 1.0 of all three applications is sheduled for December 31th 2016. This is about one month of time that I will use to iron out last bugs and finish documentation. The goal of the first stable version is, to deploy a basic but fully working freifunk node monitoring process. From registering a node at the Netmon Server up to viewing the node in a node list and receiving regulary updated statusdata. Taking part in development +++ Starting with the stable release in 2017 I would like to invite you to take part in development by taking up the responsibility for existing modules and to develop new modules which your community might need. Some ideas are gathered here: https://pad.freifunk.net/p/netmon-module If you cant wait and want to start developing now, please consider to become maintainer of the (currently unstarted) Node Client: https://git.ffnw.de/netmon-sc/node-client Just watching the demo +++ Last but not least I prepared a demo for you. Signup and play around (data will be deleted on stable release). And dont forget to hit "Strg+Shift+K" in Firefox; The really interesting parts take place on the "Network"-Tab" ;) Web-Client: https://netmon.ffnw.de API-Server: https://api.netmon.ffnw.de Best whishes Clemens

map.ffnw.de Optimierung
by Oliver Tonnhofer 04 Dec '16

04 Dec '16

Moin, (hier ist ja echt wenig los, aber die Listen hat schon jemand abonniert?) ich war gestern beim Treffen und hab dort angekündigt, dass ich gerne behilflich bin, die map.ffnw.de zu optimieren. Mit solchen Anwendungen habe ich täglich zu tun, da ich beruflich Software im Geo/Karten-Umfeld entwickle. Mit JavaScript/Client-Anwendungen hab ich zwar direkt nichts zu tun (dafür hab ich Kollegen :-)), aber ich kenne mich da trotzdem etwas aus. Ich hab gestern mit Eike schon besprochen was man bei einer neuen Anwendung berücksichtigen sollte. Hauptsächlich sollten die Daten direkt als GeoJSON geladen werden. Den Rest macht dann Leaflet schon automatisch. Das GeoJSON sollte dann auch nur die Informationen beinhalten, die tatsächlich benötigt werden (für die Karte benötigt man sicherlich nicht die Softwareversionsstände). Ich hab die node/graph.json mal in GeoJSON umgewandelt und ne kleine Demo mit Leaflet erstellt. Sind 3.5k Nodes und 3.2k Links: http://bogosoft.com/misc/ffnwmap/ Code ist unter: https://gitlab.com/olt/ffnw-map-demo Kurzfristig sollte auf map.ffnw.de im Nginx `gzip on` und `gzip_types application/json`. Das macht die Anwendung nicht schneller, die Ladezeit sollte sich aber verkürzen. Aus 4 MB JSON sollten 0.5 MB werden. Gruß, Olli
