Summary

At the moment, users are required to create a bunch of files containing boilerplate code that they then need to edit whenever they want to add a vendor or new devices. This PR add 2 scripts that create all of the files by just entering a few questions. I'd like to receive feedback on what other changes could be made to improve it.

This is an in between feature, idea is that eventually a type of form will be used for the repo, but for now this should at least be helpful.

(recreated this PR cause i had some organizing of my fork)

Changes

  • add 2 scripts. one for vendor + devices and one for just devices.

Preview of what the scripts look like.

Nice.

To avoid duplication can you call the setup devices script from the setup script? You can pass the vendor ID as argument so you can skip that prompt.

Decided to make it even easier by just compacting it all down to 1 script with a selection menu. Preview:

Thanks.

Few more things:

  1. Add line breaks before 80 characters (that is the max line length)
  2. Respect NO_COLOR environment variable. If set, don't print colors. Not all terminals are able to show them and so it becomes an unreadable mess. You can keep the assignments but make sure they're empty when NO_COLOR is set

Would I need to do this for only the echo commands or the entire code?

Ideally both but certainly anything printed.

I hope the NO_COLOR variable is properly implemented. It doesnt seem to be that standardized so I hope this is good.

@Jaime-Trinidad did you test this locally?

Yes, there are some fixes to do:

Codec:
Just fill uplinkDecoder with the decoder file name, few device makers fill downlinkEncoder and downlinkDecoder and they won't notice and cause errors.

Profile:
Same can we leave macVersion empty it fills with 1.0.3 some of them may think it is ok and won't change it, so they probably don't autofill the info.

Index:
@LDannijs check because I added from an existing vendor and it deletes the already info:

(apologies for messing up the commit history. There were commits from a different branch that i had accidentally been using on here, so i tried to fix it 😓. Need to learn to double check these things)

So few changes made:

  • Left macVersion empty and removed downlinkEncoder and downlinkDecoder
  • Made sure the index file in a company folder isn't overwritten if devices already exist in it.
  • Added a check for the vendorProfileID so it increments properly.
  • Also added a check if there is an available company id in the main index.yaml file.

Did a few things:

  • use bash instead of shell for better compatibility (linux especially)
  • removed vendorProfileID check and creation (because it will be replaced with vendorIDs in Validate features #736, so wait with pushing this PR until that one is done)
  • make sure device name is at least 3 characters long to comply with validation
  • Add profile creation step to let user decide which ones they want to add.
  • check the index.yaml file of a vendor to make sure a device with the same name isnt overwritten when adding a new one

Turned the command to run the script into a make command to match the other commands.

And with #736 now being merged i can reopen this PR.
