amtm amtm - the Asuswrt-Merlin Terminal Menu

[thelonelycoder]

Can I make a menu structure suggestion?
Separate the install scripts from the run scripts?

amtm v0.1 by thelonelycoder

--SNBForums install/update scripts--
1 AB-Solution
2 Skynet
3 dnscryp
4 Entware
5 pixelserv-tls beta version

--Open--
6 Skynet
7 AB-Solution

--amtm options--
u Update
r Remove
a About
e Exit
----------------| INFO |----------------
/opt/bin detected!
You can now start amtm with "amtm"
(without the quotes)

Enter selection:

My design choice is to not have double entries. Hence the menu is dynamic. If AB-Solution is installed it says "Open", if not then it says "Install".
Also, to add a new Script to the list is done in one place and you only have to make changes there and not worry about the rest of the code in the script.

For now this is how I do it.

Great, makes sense, dynamic it is then.

 

[thelonelycoder]

Version 0.2 preview.
Theme colors if AB-Solution is installed.

Very nice!

Ha, silly me, had to come back and read that post about 0.2 again. Pounding the "u" key was just not working.

Oh, but u works just fine. The update is just not there yet

Skynet has peeked my interest and wouldn't mind using this for the install. However i'm not sure of the benefits of Skynet I should post in the skynet thread don't want to derail.

Without hijacking the thread, if simplistic black/whitelisting and added security is something that interests you, Skynet is by far the most advanced solution on this platform. You can read more about it here

@thelonelycoder this works great! I want to thank you again for putting everything under one roof and saving us all a lot of copying / pasting and typing extra characters

I have to do some other work first before I can finish v0.1 and publish it.
Until then, look at what this version already can do:

Check, already done in v0.1: 1. ab-solution curl install script
Check, already done in v0.1: 2. Skynet curl install script
Check, already done in v0.1: 3. Pixelsrv kvic curl update script to latest.
Maybe next version: 4. maybe a USB EXT2 format script? (no more dragging USB sticks around and long debates about best format program / file system variation )
Maybe next version: 5. create swap file? (i understood some router models needed to create a swap?)
More will be added when time allows: 5. Whatever other install scripts people find usefull

Check, already done in v0.1: 1. Start ab-solution menu (1 keypress instead of typing ./ab-solution.sh)
Check, already done in v0.1: 2. Start Skynet menu
More will be added when time allows: 3. ?? any other apps that get added??

Edit: The (u) (and a, r, e) refer to amtm itself...

The “format USB” should be higher up on the list: it’s the “gateway drug” to the rest.

Good work, @thelonelycoder. This is a keystone; it unifies SO much and compliments @RMerlin’s work perfectly.
You both (you all!) deserve to be rewarded with more than the praise you get here.

Not for v0.2, but it's still in the list of things to do...

 

[thelonelycoder]

amtm version 0.2 is now available
Use u to update.

See post #1 for changes.

Kudos on the colours! Stands out nicely now.

Can you guess who's the author?

Nice update.

Bug report: I already have the pixelserv-tls beta version installed. But still it shows the option for installing the beta version.

I'm not checking that, you should know if you already installed a beta. This menu just reruns the updating script.
You can open it, it shows some info before it is run. Including a typo I just fixed locally.

Would this script be helpful/easily implemented into amtm?

If your WAN connection goes down, it sends an email when it comes back up. It also lets you know your current WAN IP.

We have a rock solid WAN connection, so I actually use this more to know if our power went out.
Anyway, I've always found it helpful.

Nope, this is a niche sector I believe. And I already coded a script for that, although development is halted, I wait for Asus to make meaningful changes to the closed source code.

I updated all went great! Nice new look and feel!

 

[heysoundude]

Same here. All good.
Somebody who hasn’t yet, slide this man some bitcoin...

 

[Raphie]

It’s not a bug, the same script is used for any new version, once kvic says there is a new version you can update it via this option.

Nice update.
