amcfwm - AsusWRT-Merlin Custom Firmware Manager

[JWoo]

I figured it out. I was missing the BC package. I created a docker image and run with a container to compile the firmware.

Which package was missing and how did you install?

 

[JGrana]

Which package was missing and how did you install?

I believe he was missing the bc (binary calculator) command. The script/makefiles use it for in-line math.

If you believe you are missing it, try in the Ubuntu shell:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install bc

BTW, it doesn't appear the RT-AX58U builds...yet

 

[JWoo]

Thanks @JGrana was not missing it. You are also correct that the 386 builds regretfully do not support the RT-AX58U yet. I wish Asus would support their latest AX routers with the new preliminary build.

They already explained why that model is not supported yet, they are busy unifying its SDK with other AX models first. It's not ready yet.

amcfwm always builds from the latest commit so the repo may not always be in a buildable state.

yes, I know, but was thinking if something is not broken on my VM only.

 

[Adamm]

Its the repo.

In other news, here is a sneak peek at webhook notification support coming in the next update ;

 

[Adamm]

This project has a discord server i want to join that server

Thats just a private server I use for notifications/testing on various scripts. The webhook feature will be implemented in such a way where anyone can use their own discord server for notifications by entering their webhook URL.

 

[L&LD]

@Mihai, 'private server'.

 

[L&LD]

With three requests ignored in the last two hours, it is safe to say the answer is probably 'No'.

Why are you so eager to gain access to @Adamm's private server?

 

[Adamm]

To have more people to talk with

Trust me, your not missing out on anything. There aren't any talking channels (or other users), just BOTS posting random output for various projects.

 

[RMerlin]

If you want a community location to chat, Asuswrt-Merlin has an official IRC channel on Freenode. Channel is #asuswrt . We typically sit at 90+ users online.

Makes more sense than asking access to a private server that has nobody on it.

 

[RMerlin]

Can you allow me to have access to this server on discord please and you will never see , hear me again okay?

Please drop it. You already have your answer. And stop repeating the same questions.

 

[thiggins]

Can you allow me to have access to this server on discord please and you will never see , hear me again okay?

@Mihai Your question has been answered. Any further posts asking for access to the private server will earn you a 1 week ban.

 

[Adamm]

I've pushed v1.0.3

Remove AC56U support
Add total compile time to output
Add Webhook support

The main feature of this release being Discord Webhook support. So for those of you with your own discord servers, you can have amcfwm log build events;

does anyone know what is missing?

A couple of files didn't get committed to github when nano got updated (apparently the .gitignore they provide isn't accurate, and was filtering some important files). Should build fine for you now.

yes, it is. thanks.
anyway checking your GitHub every day and building ...

 

[Milan]

@RMerlin is there some central C flags?

 

[octopus]

Someone have build for RT-AC68U, and can share one?

Thanks
