MeshTerm's live feed is built from RX_LOG_DATA events — every overheard frame with its SNR/RSSI. pymc_core's frame server has push_rx_raw (the 0x88 push) but its _setup_push_callbacks never registers on_rx_log_data, so it is never called: the promiscuous log is dropped and only adverts — which carry their own wired advert_received push — reach the feed. The radio was plainly hearing requests and channel text too; none of it showed. Subscribe to the dispatcher's raw-packet feed directly and push each frame. Routing through the dispatcher rather than on_rx_log_data keeps it clear of the frame server's per-connection clear_push_callbacks(), and that feed fires before dedup, so the client sees every repeat — what a live feed wants. Same missing-wiring shape as the trace push; upstream fix is likewise to register on_rx_log_data -> push_rx_raw in _setup_push_callbacks. Confirmed against a live mesh: the feed now shows the full packet mix. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

"""
|
||
meshterm-spi-bridge — expose an SPI-attached MeshCore radio to MeshTerm.
|
||
|
||
Some boards (the ClockworkPi uConsole hackergadgets AIO, Waveshare LoRa HATs)
|
||
wire the LoRa chip straight to the host's SPI bus — there is no companion MCU
|
||
and no firmware to flash. The node runs *in software* on the host via the
|
||
`pymc_core` library. MeshTerm, though, speaks the MeshCore companion protocol
|
||
over serial/BLE/TCP and expects to talk to a node, not to drive a bare radio.
|
||
|
||
This tool bridges the two: it runs the pymc_core node itself and puts the
|
||
standard companion protocol in front of it on a local TCP port, so that
|
||
|
||
meshterm --tcp 127.0.0.1:5000
|
||
|
||
connects exactly as if a real companion device were plugged in.
|
||
|
||
It is BOTH a friendly setup menu and the bridge process. Run it with any
|
||
Python 3 — it finds the pymc_core runtime for you and re-execs the bridge half
|
||
under that interpreter automatically. You never need to know about venvs.
|
||
|
||

./meshterm-spi-bridge --check # run prerequisite checks and exit

./meshterm-spi-bridge --run # run the bridge now in this terminal

How this works, briefly:

* Your LoRa radio is wired to the host's SPI bus — there is no separate

MCU and no firmware to flash. The mesh node runs as software here.
|
||
* This bridge runs that node and exposes it on a local network port so
|
||
MeshTerm can connect with: meshterm --tcp {host}:{port}
|
||
* Two processes cooperate: this bridge (owns the radio) and MeshTerm
|
||
(the terminal you use). Keep the bridge running while you use MeshTerm.
|

Caveat — only ONE program may use the radio at a time:

def _wire_trace_push(companion, server, log) -> None:
|
||
"""Forward over-the-air trace replies to the client as PUSH_CODE_TRACE_DATA.
|
||
|
||
pymc_core parses received TRACE packets but never hands them to the
|
||
companion client: its frame server registers every push callback *except*
|
||
``on_trace_received``, and nothing in the library ever fires the
|
||
``trace_received`` event — so the whole path is dead code. The only
|
||
``push_trace_data`` call is the self-hop shortcut in ``_cmd_send_trace_path``.
|
||
The upshot is that MeshTerm's ``run_trace`` sends the trace, gets
|
||
``RESP_CODE_SENT``, then waits on ``TRACE_DATA`` and times out while the node
|
||
quietly drops the reply.
|
||
|
||
Bridge it at the one seam that sees every received packet with its measured
|
||
SNR — the dispatcher's packet-received callback (``CompanionRadio`` already
|
||
installs ``_on_packet_received`` there and only acts on group data). Wrap it:
|
||
run the original, then, for a TRACE payload, re-slice the on-air bytes into
|
||
the hash/SNR blocks ``push_trace_data`` wants and push the standard 0x89
|
||
frame — exactly what the ``meshcore`` client on MeshTerm's side decodes.
|
||
|
||
Reading the SNRs is the subtle part. A TRACE packet keeps the *route* (the
|
||
hop hashes) in its payload, unchanged as it travels; the per-hop SNRs ride in
|
||
the packet **header's path field** instead — one signed byte (SNR × 4) appended
|
||
by each hop, which is where ``push_trace_data``'s SNR block and MeshTerm's
|
||
decoder both source them. So the payload never grows, and an earlier attempt
|
||
that waited for SNRs to appear *in the payload* never fired.
|
||
|
||
A received TRACE packet is also not a reply just because it exists. The
|
||
dispatcher is promiscuous — it runs the trace handler and this callback for
|
||
every non-duplicate TRACE frame it overhears, including third parties' traces
|
||
and our own outbound echoed back by the first repeater (same tag, header path
|
||
still filling). Pushing on those makes MeshTerm's tag-filtered wait resolve
|
||
instantly against a half-walked trace, so *every* trace reads as success. So
|
||
we gate hard: remember the tag and route of every trace we originate
|
||
(``send_trace_path_raw`` is the one send seam the frame server calls), and push
|
||
only a received TRACE whose tag we sent *and* whose header has accumulated an
|
||
SNR for every hop of that route — the completed reply.
|
||
|
||
Upstream, the clean fix is the mirror of every other push: have
|
||
``_on_packet_received`` fire ``trace_received`` for a completed trace and have
|
||
``frame_server._setup_push_callbacks`` register ``on_trace_received`` →
|
||
``push_trace_data``. Until a pymc_core release carries that, this shim stands
|
||
(same spirit as :func:`_patch_pymc_ack_compat`).
