[tinycloud] Consider "accessible" when USB-ethernet is connected #277

Open arthurlutz opened 5 years ago

arthurlutz commented 5 years ago

When using the clockworkpi "offline" without a wifi connection, I think tinycloud could (should?) display instructions when the clockworkpi has been connected using USB ethernet.

Existing :

Keep clockworkpi not connected to wifi (airplaine mode or just don't configure wifi)
Open tinycloud
"Please connect to a wifi network" is displayed
USB-ethernet information is displayed with IP address
Connect it with usb cable
From computer tinycloud functionnality is usable (scp, ssh, smb, etc.)

Wished :

Keep clockworkpi not connected to wifi (airplaine mode or just don't configure wifi)
Open tinycloud
"Please connect to wifi or USB" is displayed (the IP for USB-ethernet is set but not useful so far, don't display it)
Connect USB cable
DHCP lease is detected on USB-ethernet
Display full information (except wifi address)

Taking a look at the code, I think the change required is https://github.com/clockworkpi/launcher/blob/e22a3286f3c7415fae6928dd5597f21d2784c9cb/Menu/GameShell/98_TinyCloud/__init__.py#L190

I might do a contribution on this if this is approved.
