Hi there,

thanks for the release!
I both installed node and npm -with storage extension- but npm install seems give some errors:

npm WARN package.json test@1.0.0 No repository field.
npm WARN package.json test@1.0.0 No README data
npm ERR! Linux 3.18.27
npm ERR! argv "/usr/bin/node" "/usr/bin/npm" "install" "--save" "ws"
npm ERR! node v4.3.1
npm ERR! npm v2.14.12
npm ERR! code ENOTFOUND
npm ERR! errno ENOTFOUND
npm ERR! syscall getaddrinfo

Anyone else having the issues?

Anyway, once manually added the packages, node seems to running fine (as far as i tested it)

Well, it's actually quite dull to look at. You know, click a button, coffee machine turns on (girlfriend was NOT impressed
However, since I am neither a CS nor an engineer and thus a complete electronics noob, I might make an howto on my github, for people like me, which kinda could make it useful.

Hi there,

thanks for all the responses! It helped.
At hindsight, controlling the GPIO over Serial interface was indeed quite trivial.

Here's the script I made in Processing (unlikely whether this is going to help someone in the future, but anyway...): script

The python library was equally helpful. There is a great SO example, which almost works out of the box, after correcting for baudrate and removing the parity, stopbits and bytesize parameters.

Hi there,

absolute noob question here, but I'd like to control the GPIO through USB. I couldn't find straightforward documentation. Could someone point me to the right direction?

Background

(not immediately relevant for the question, though)

• I'd like to use this library to talk with a coffee machine.

I already managed to make this work, using fast-gpio and exposing this over REST. But now, I'd like to go one step further and try to talk directly with it.
I work on OSX

thanks!

ow dude, busted, absolute noob here (first time I get so low level), thanks, it made the trick!

Hi,

I was being a bit too enthusiastic whilst playing with my onion omega, and I think I might have broken my serial port. Even after resetting, when connecting there is a nice stream of unknown characters showing up: �#B��bR���...

Ssh and web interface are doing fine, any hopes I might recover the serial port?

thx
