Hi
I played a little with the alarm_clock software: i changed it a little
bit so that the wav file selection becomes a .sh file selection,
executed using
tux.sys.shell_free("sh %s "%(self.sh_filename))
My sample script contains:
mpg321 -o esd http://85.21.79.5:8040/
... which is a webradio
It seems to me the launched apps (using shell_free) are not considered
as child processes... How can i stop/locate the launched processes?
Normally it should be, but why do you use 'sh' before your command?
Doesn't work here when I do that.
Here's a simple test I did:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp$ cat test.py
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys
sys.path.append('/opt/tuxdroid/api/python')
from tux import *
tux.sys.shell_free("ps -ef | grep test")
tux.sys.wait(1)
tux.disconnect_from_daemon()
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp$ ./test.py

david 2787 2777 0 14:59 pts/0 00:00:00 sh -c ps -ef | grep test
david 2789 2787 0 14:59 pts/0 00:00:00 grep test
I see that the tux.sys.* are:
add_time_event
clear_time_events
events_list
parent
shell
shell_free
time
time_events_Thread
wait
Can you explain a little how/what these functions do? How to act on
running events, etc...
I personally can't as I don't know much more than you, still didn't do
much with the api yet. But as we urged rémi to write the documentation, he
should be adding docstrings in the api pretty soon.
I also suggested we write a tutorial with a script that would be well
documented and would demonstrate some functions/functionalities of the api
one by one in a sequence. That would help a lot to understand how to use
the api. This tutorial, once published on tuxisalive, will be copied in
the wiki to extend it to every function that is available in the api. When
really complete and mature, it will replace the simple one on the website.
So at the moment, I can't be of much help except urging to get that
documentation.
cheers,
david
