installers.yml gains a cardputer-zero job: build-deb.sh in a Debian 13 container on an arm64 runner, the same system as the Cardputer. The release attaches the .deb with the other downloads and lists it in SHA256SUMS, and its notes say where Cardputer users get MeshTerm. github-release.yml gains a store job after the release. It runs scripts/cardputer-zero/store-publish.py, which calls czdev publish with two corrections: the manifest's email is johnputer@meshterm.net, not the GitHub profile's, and the branch name stays the same between czdev's two calls (for a fork, the second call named a branch that was never pushed, and GitHub refused the PR). It also sends czdev's git over HTTPS with the token, and it publishes nothing when the store has the version or a PR for it is open, so a rerun opens no second PR. AppBuilder is pinned to the commit whose functions it corrects. The job needs the CARDPUTER_STORE_TOKEN secret (public_repo scope). The release skill now checks the store PR and counts fifteen assets. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Finds why a user's map has no basemap: certificates, DNS, proxy, or colour depth |
cardputer-zero/ |
build-deb.sh builds the Debian package for M5Stack's app store. Run it on the Cardputer Zero or on another arm64 Debian 13 system. store/ holds the listing for the store (app-builder.json, which czdev publish reads), its icon, and its screenshots. screenshot.py saves the display of a Cardputer as a 320×170 PNG over SSH, as the store wants a screenshot. store-publish.py sends a package to the store with M5Stack's czdev, with two corrections. The release workflow runs it after each release. launcher-entry.sh puts a source checkout in the Cardputer Zero's app launcher. remove takes it out. meshterm.png is the package's icon: the website's logo, at the launcher's 100×100 size. meshterm-dev.png is its negative, for the checkout's entry, so that the two entries look different. type-text.py types a pasted string (an API key, a Wi-Fi password) on the Cardputer's keyboard from another computer, over SSH |
picocalc-lyra/ |
Setup of the Calculinux device: console font, palette, Wi-Fi. xiao-radio/ is the kit for the XIAO radio (firmware build, flashing, UART setup) |
uconsole/ |
The uConsole's always-on SPI bridge service. MeshTerm can also control that radio directly, with no script (refer to docs/devices/uconsole.md) |
basemap-doctor.py
The map is the only part of MeshTerm that uses the network. MeshTerm logs each fetch
failure on this path at DEBUG, and log_level is WARNING by default. Thus a user whose
tiles do not arrive sees a blank ground and no explanation. This script prints the
explanation and the correction.
To use it, tell the user to run this on the machine that has the problem:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jpmartineau/MeshTerm/main/scripts/basemap-doctor.py -o /tmp/basemap-doctor.py
python3 /tmp/basemap-doctor.py
Any python3 is correct. If that python3 does not have MeshTerm, the script reads the
interpreter from the installed meshterm command's shebang, and it runs again with
that interpreter. Thus the answer always comes from the app's own Python. A Mac
often has three Pythons, and only one of them has the trust store that is important. Save
the script to a file, as in the example. Do not pipe it into python3 -. When there is no
file on the disk, the script cannot run again with the other interpreter.
Ask the user to paste all the output back to you. The output names the interpreter, the
certificate store, the tile source, the number of cached tiles, and COLORTERM. Then it
gives one verdict:
- curl reached it, Python did not. The Python's certificate store is empty. A
python.org install on macOS has an empty store until the user runs
Install Certificates.command. - neither reached it. The problem is in the network path: a firewall, a proxy, a DNS filter, or an outage. There is nothing to correct in MeshTerm.
- both reached it. The tiles are correct. The problem is colour. When
COLORTERMis not set, the terminal uses 256 colours, and the greens and blues of the basemap are too similar. Terminal.app cannot do 24-bit colour.
The exit status is 0 when the tiles arrive and 1 when they do not. Thus a script can use it.
