LinuxCNC improvements to make it more flexible and extendable? #1

Hi

I just saw your video https://yewtu.be/watch?v=Bqa2grG0XtA on using screen glasses to display information from LinuxCNC and a high speed camera. It occured to me that such applications might be easier to create with a few LinuxCNC extentions? Do you agree? I am one of the people involved in the LinuxCNC project, and wonder how we could help make these kind of experiences easier for everyone.

I am currently working on a MQTT publisher of LinuxCNC values, wrapping up various HAL pins as JSON. It occurred to me that it could be easily extended or changed to provide a REST API with the same information instead or in addition to publishing it via MQTT.

Would love to hear your thoughts and perhaps see you on the IRC channel #linuxcnc-devel on libera.chat.

The MQTT stuff is mentioned in https://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/LinuxCNC_MQTT_publisher_component.html .
