Open thopiekar opened 7 years ago
@thopiekar what was your intention for that issue?
The idea was to provide a 3rd party app store for openHAB. All you would need is a xml file and there you define the download link, app name, version and category. So whenever you update the openHAB package, you could update this xml, too, and people who are using it get automatic updates. But this, however, needs a solid start/stop mechanism and a well tested update procedure.
As an example you can take this XML file: https://www.qnapclub.eu/en/repo.xml
and a well tested update procedure Well I think that's the reason why I'm not gonna do that. It seems to be too much work and as I only have 1 NAS, I can't test it for all (especially newer) NAS. And then there are the issues with various processors etc and the problems which also come with the openHAB updates itself (as there are some issues from 2.0.0 to 2.2.0) which I don't want to solve for all kind of installations the people have out there... If there is someone out there who wants to make that, you're happily invited, otherwise I would leave this idea just open for the future :)
Well, just because you can't! There are many issues people have with their NAS's - mostly because they have devices with wrong specs, like eg. half GB of RAM. And as soon as something else is running some subprocesses of openHAB are out of memory. If people really care they need to fix it on their own. This is free software and opensource..
Yes, just keep it open. I often create these kind of issue tickets in my own projects, whenever I get new ideas :)
Needs some investigations when my NAS is working correctly again. Shall not be difficult..
