Hello Everyone, you may have noticed "LuCI the Lua Configuration Interface" in the official release announcement for Kamikaze 8.08 As there was not much information about this project in the past and we noticed several people asking in different places for it we like to make a little announcement here:
LuCI is a new approach for a web user interface for OpenWRT. It aims to be free, clean and extensible. While most similar configuration interfaces make heavy use of the Shell-scripting language LuCI uses the Lua programming language and splits up the interface into logical parts like models and views, uses object-oriented libraries and templating. That ensures a higher performance, smaller installation size, faster runtimes and what is most important: better maintainibility. To the project status: LuCI is already quite stable and we are doing last improvements and bugfixes before the first RC version. At the moment all base-system networking and configuration stuff can be edited via LuCI plus a few more applications like firewalling and port-forwarding stuff, a statistics collector with rrdtool-graphs, OLSR and QoS support are included. We are always looking for people to maintain, improve or create web interface components. Maybe you would like to implement a webinterface page for your favorite application: It's not that difficult. If you want to contribute feel free to contact us. Any help whether it may be development, designing, translation or documentation stuff is highly appreciated. You will find all project-related links including a more detailed project description, the sourcecode repositories, screenshots and howtos on our current project website: http://luci.freifunk-halle.net Greetings Cyrus and Jow Lead Developers of LuCI _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org http://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
