Multiple PHP

[Chlorex]

Hello everybody.

So far I have understood the execution with "./ws2812svr -f file.txt". I wrote a web server including PHP script and buttons so that I can start various programs via the website.

Now to my problem: Server starts with "sudo ./ws2812svr -tcp 9999" The first (no matter which) PHP file is executed, but the second PHP file is not.

Didn't find a stop or reset function.

Is there a "Next PHP File" function included?

Yes, when a PHP has run through, you can start the next .. but "interrupt" would be very helpful in some cases.

Greetings from Germany, great job.

My example:

<?php 
send_to_leds("
    reset;
    setup 1,299,3;
    init;
    chaser 1,0,00ff00,1,1,10,220,50;
    ");

function send_to_leds ($data) {
    $sock = fsockopen("127.0.0.1", 9999);
    fwrite($sock, $data);
    fclose($sock);
}

?>

I'm not sure if I understand your question but I guess you want to abort/stop the current command next time you run the PHP script? This is the solution:

Start the server with the setup/init command:

sudo ./ws2812svr -tcp 9999 -i "setup 1,299,3; init;"

Now with PHP you send commands to create a background thread and start the chaser in this thread:

send_to_leds("thread_start 1,0;
                              chaser 1,0,00ff00,1,1,10,220,50;
                     thread_stop;
                    ");

Next time you run the PHP code the chaser command will abort and your next command will start to run:

send_to_leds("thread_start 1,0;
                              <ENTER NEXT COMMANDS HERE>
                     thread_stop;
                    ");

yes, this is the solution...

I missed it : thread_start with the value of a thread that is still running if join_type is 0 the thread will be aborted immediately

thank you... Great job.
