Christian Hesse 3cab917a61 capsman-download-packages: no download of missing package for wifiwave2
Sadly the log messages from wifiwave2 do not contain any hint what is
missing... So it's not possible to download missing files.

Download packages for CAP upgrade from CAPsMAN

⬅️ Go back to main README

Info: This script can not be used on its own but requires the base installation. See main README for details.

Description

CAPsMAN can upgrate CAP devices. If CAPsMAN device and CAP device(s) are differnet architecture you need to store packages for CAP device's architecture on local storage.

This script automatically downloads these packages.

Requirements and installation

Just install the script on CAPsMAN device. Depending on whether you use wifiwave2 package (/interface/wifiwave2) or legacy wifi with CAPsMAN (/caps-man) you need to install a different script.

For wifiwave2:

$ScriptInstallUpdate capsman-download-packages.wifiwave2;

For legacy CAPsMAN:

$ScriptInstallUpdate capsman-download-packages.capsman;

Optionally add a scheduler to run after startup. For wifiwave2:

/system/scheduler/add name=capsman-download-packages on-event="/system/script/run capsman-download-packages.wifiwave2;" start-time=startup;

For legacy CAPsMAN:

/system/scheduler/add name=capsman-download-packages on-event="/system/script/run capsman-download-packages.capsman;" start-time=startup;

Packages available in local storage in older version are downloaded unconditionally.

If no packages are found the script tries to download missing packages for legacy CAPsMAN by guessing from system log.

Usage and invocation

Run the script manually:

/system/script/run capsman-download-packages.wifiwave2;

... or from scheduler.

After package download all out-of-date CAP devices are upgraded automatically. For a rolling upgrade install extra script capsman-rolling-upgrade.
