Queen BeeCon Widget

Latest revision as of 09:57, 11 October 2021

Queen BeeCon Widget (See Talk Thread) is a highly customizable and flexible widget-based multi-instance monitoring, alerting and interactive tool for Maemo 5 (Fremantle) and the N900. In 8 words ... A Super Powerful and Customizable Widget Generation Engine

The Widget is based on the execution of external Shell/OS Commands which can be either as simple as one-liner statements or as complex as articulated shell scripts, which, for example, fetch, parse and aggregate contents retreived from the system, other applications or the Internet.

There are two basic Widget types, Beecons and Snippets:

Beecons are small hexagonal cells whose background color or associated image/icon changes according to the executed Command Exit Status.

Beecons can handle virtually unlimited Command Exit Status:

<0 Normally notifying system errors in esecuting the script/command
0 Returned when script/command successfully completes
1 Used to report a warning condition
2 If script/command needs to notify some application error conditions
<=126 Other exit status which can be handled for displaying user defined icons/images

Snippets are normal text/graphic boxes with fixed background color and images which is not influenced by the executed Command Exit Status.

[edit] Features List

Widget can be multi-instantiated, disabled and minimized on desktop (click on minimized icon on desktop will wakeup and maximize instance)
Possibility to define multiple commands and command labels to be displayed inside the Widget
Different types of Widget layouts and behaviours (currently Beecons and Snippets)
Possibility to sense Phone Orientation and execute scripts accordingly
Possibility to sense GPS/Location information/FIX from the phone and execute scripts accordingly
Possibility to hide the background Canvas both for Beecons and Snippets
Possibility to use icons or images instead of text, both for Beecons/Snippets command title' and output (with highly versatile positioning, zooming/scaling 5%-200%-FitToWidget)
Possibility to use custom progress animations for each instance of the widget (with up to 30 frames, configurable frame period in msec and highly versatile positioning
It is possible to independently show or hide both snippet's images/texts and beecon images/texts. This way you can have two images and two text placeholders on widget, for more flexibility in graphic layout
Independent images/icons for Command Exit Statuses can also been specified. Useful, for example, for displaying different icons according to percentages values returned by command.
Widget can be clicked on 9 different Hot Spots with a 3x3 grid layout or at specific position with ability to forward the click position to the script
Multi Click support on widget
Nice "button-press"-like visual feedback using Gradient fill
Widget relies also on private general purpose directories "~/.queen_beecon_dir/" and "..../MyDocs/.images/queen_beecon_dir/" as images/icons immediate storage. For easier population via USB of BLUETOOTH File Services.
Widget texts can be formatted through Pango Markup Language
Widget Size can be customized (Width: 10-800, Height: 10-420 with pixel precision) and position can be fine tuned (X,Y +/- 5pix); Tweaking "/usr/share/hildon-desktop/transitions.ini" may also help. (snap_grid_size = 1 & snap_to_grid_while_move = 1)
Background color for Beecons can be customized for each 4 Command Exit Statuses (with graphical preview)
Background color for Snippets can be customized (with graphical preview)
Font Color of both command label and results can be configured (with graphical preview)
Position and visibility of both command label and results can be configured (Hidden, Top L, Top C, Top R, Center L, Center, Center R, Bottom L, Bottom C, Bottom R) Also, rotation of lables can be changed (0, 90, 180, 270 degrees)
Font Face, Style and Size of both command label and results can be configured with preview
Text Justification of both command label and results can be configured (Left, Center, Right, Fill)
Text Wrapping of results can be enabled
Command execution can be triggered optionally on widget startup, by manual pressing on Widget, by desktop switching, by periodic updates (0=Manual, 30 s, 1 m, 5 m, 30 m, 1 h, 6 h, 12 h, 1 d, Custom Seconds Interval), by specific DBUS Events on System or Session Bus.which can be filtered through custom rules, by orientation changes, by GPS
Command execution can be subject to network connection status and widget visibility on current desktop
Tool includes a powerful Advanced Maintenance Dialog Box for command development and testing (TestDrive mode to display raw output of predefined or user-defined commands)
A wide set of Parameter Substitution Variables can be passed to executed scripts; variables include: Instance ID, Pressed Hot Spot, Visibility of Widget, Execution Triggering Event, content of Output text, verbose DBUS messages, persistent information stored in widget specific parameter, Proxy related information
Advanced Maintenance Dialog Box includes extended functionalities like:
- instance export/import with checksum
- command export/import with checksum
- command update with current Test Drive buffer
- clipboard operations
- export/import to/from files for instance data and commands.
A set of basic Images/Icons for Snippets and Beecon Statuses is included inside the distribution package and installed inside canonical hildon hicolor 48x48 directory
Inter Process Communication mechanism among QBW instances and with other Applications has been implemented through DBUS methods and signals handling
It is integrated into the N900 system backup/restore features according to standard specifications as better described in the SDK documentation
Powerful Application Logging Subsystem
For Web and Proxy related information and issues please have a look at the parameter substitution documentation and THIS post.

[edit] QBW Instance Timer Logic

The Timer logic for each instance for actions to be run periodically is programmed as follows:

The timer of each instance is reset and re-armed every time the widget is Startup (System Boot or QBW release upgrade)
The timer of each instance is reset and re-armed every time it is changed in the Settings dialog box and it is different from its previous value
If a widget is disabled, either by changing is "Status" in the Settings dialog box or via DBUS method sleep, its timer is disabled
If a widget is re-enabled, either by changing is "Status" in the Settings dialog box or via DBUS method wakeup, its timer is reset and re-armed
If Settings Parameter delayIndex has been changed via DBUS set_param_uint32 method, the relevant timer must be explicitly reset and rearmed via DBUS methos reset_rearm_timer
The timer is reset and re-armed every time a new QBW instance is imported via Advanced dialog box and relevant parameter is set

[edit] System Backup/Restore Integration

As of release >=0.1.8 QBW is integrated into the N900 system backup/restore features according to standard specifications as better described in the SDK Using Backup Application

/etc/osso-backup/applications/queen-beecon.conf file is:

<backup-configuration>
 <locations>
   <location type="file"
             category="settings">$HOME/.queen-beecon</location>
   <location type="dir"
             category="documents">$HOME/MyDocs/.images/queen_beecon_dir</location>
   <location type="dir"
             category="documents">$HOME/.queen_beecon_dir</location>
 </locations>
</backup-configuration>

[edit] Application Logging Subsystem

As of release >=1.0.2, QBW employs a powerful Application Logging subsystem.

Log file is:

~/.queen_beecon_dir/queen_beecon.log

Time in logfile is ISO 8601 encoded string, relative to the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)

Logging is disabled by default.

[edit] Enabling Logging

Logging can be enabled in different ways:

Dynamically via QBW DBUS method call

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --session --print-reply --type=method_call --dest=oh.no.more.qbw /oh/no/more/qbw<idX> oh.no.more.qbw.logger_action string:<vX>

<idX> is the QBW Instance ID of and existing QBW instance (no matter which one as logging is global)

<vX> is the required verbosity (Allowed values are: v0 v1 v2 v3 v4 from minimum verbosity to maximum)

Example:

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --session --print-reply --type=method_call --dest=oh.no.more.qbw /oh/no/more/qbwid0 oh.no.more.qbw.logger_action string:v4

WARNING! Due to performance reasons, v0 v1 v2 v3 logging verbosity is asynchronous, meaning that the log file will not be instantly updated as soon as a new information is logged.

If you specifically need an up to date log file condition, you need to specifically issue a:

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --session --print-reply --type=method_call --dest=oh.no.more.qbw /oh/no/more/qbw<idX> oh.no.more.qbw.logger_action string:flush

v4 logging verbosity is synchronous by design and logs a lot of information thus causing system slow down side effects at time and ~/.queen_beecon_dir/ directory/file system filling quite quickly. Keep file system space monitored if you need this level of verbosity!

Statically via condition file presence

If you need to setup permanent verbosity to a specified level, also to monitor QBW startup, just go to directory:

~/.queen_beecon_dir/

and issue command:

touch queen_beecon.log.<vX>

where <vX> is the required verbosity (Allowed values are: v0 v1 v2 v3 v4 from minimum verbosity to maximum)

Example:

touch queen_beecon.log.v4

Static Logging is activated every time the Phone/Widget is restarted

[edit] Changing Logging Verbosity

Logging verbosity can be dynamically changed by calling the following DBUS method call:

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --session --print-reply --type=method_call --dest=oh.no.more.qbw /oh/no/more/qbw<idX> oh.no.more.qbw.logger_action string:<vX>

<idX> is the QBW Instance ID of an existing QBW instance (no matter which one as logging is global)

<vX> is the required verbosity (Allowed values are: v0 v1 v2 v3 v4 from minimum verbosity to maximum)

[edit] Disabling Logging

Logging can be dynamically disabled by calling the following DBUS method call

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --session --print-reply --type=method_call --dest=oh.no.more.qbw /oh/no/more/qbw<idX> oh.no.more.qbw.logger_action string:disable

<idX> is the QBW Instance ID of an existing QBW instance (no matter which one as logging is global)

[edit] Resetting Log File

Log file can be dynamically reset to empty status by calling the following DBUS method call

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --session --print-reply --type=method_call --dest=oh.no.more.qbw /oh/no/more/qbw<idX> oh.no.more.qbw.logger_action string:reset

<idX> is the QBW Instance ID of an existing QBW instance (no matter which one as logging is global)

[edit] Interaction with QBW over DBUS

[edit] Overview

As of releases newer than 0.1.7, a new Inter Process Communication mechanism among QBW instances and with other Applications has been implemented.

Through the standard DBUS interface, both at the OS-shell and at different programming environments level, QBW instances can be controlled/accessed and mutual interaction can be guaranteed, thus allowing a set of extended functionalities like:

Give impulse to other Beecons for content update
Give impulse to other Beecons for layout update
Give other Beecons one-shot alternative scripts to execute
Remotely change QBW settings
Retrieve other beecon's last executed commands exit status
Provide to non graphical programs and daemons a suitable interface for displaying information on precustomized beecons on screen (for example Dbus Scripts for displaying events on the system/session DBUS like cell IDs changes, available WLANs and the like)

I encourage you to suggest possible enhancements or wishlists in this area and report them in the main TALK thread

[edit] QBW Instance ID

Queen Beecon Widget's Instance Id, needed for every reference in DBUS method calls, can be found at the very top of the Settings dialog box:

[edit] DBUS Specifications

QBW_DBUS_SERVICE ="oh.no.more.qbw"  [Name of D-Bus service]
QBW_DBUS_PATH    ="/oh/no/more/qbw<idX>" [Name of Object Path]
QBW_DBUS_IFACE   ="oh.no.more.qbw"  [Name of D-Bus interface]

<idX> is the QBW Instance ID

[edit] DBUS Methods & Parameters

QBW implements the following list of methods to trigger specific actions:

WARNING!!! Methods' Parameters are case-sensitive

`get_exit_status`		`int32:'<ExitStatus>'`	Retrieve other QBW's last executed commands exit status

[edit] DBUS Signals & Parameters

QBW issues the following list of signals to notify the "world" about predefined conditions and events. They will be emitted on the bus according to the following specifications:

PATH       ="/oh/no/more/qbw<idX>"
INTERFACE  ="oh.no.more.qbw"
MEMBER     ="<signal name>" [Signal column in below list]
PARAMETERS ="<parameter>" [Broadcast column in below list]

<idX> is the QBW Instance ID

Signal	Broadcasts	Description
`signal_content_update`	`int32:'<ExitStatus>'`	Issued when QBW Instance <idX> executes and returns an exit status

[edit] Interacting with QBW from the Shell

This is the template to use for calling the QBW instance methods:

For methods which DO return values:

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --session --print-reply --type=method_call --dest=oh.no.more.qbw /oh/no/more/qbw<idX> oh.no.more.qbw.<method> <type1>:"<param1>" <type2>:"<param2>" ... <typeN>:"<paramN>"

WARNING!!! Hildon-home is quite sensitive to long running commands inside Queen Beecon Widget. If you believe that the dbus-send command is going to take much time (say >2/3 secs) it is better if you add the --reply-timeout=<milliseconds> to the dbus-send list of parameters. As of >=0.1.9.3 release, asynchronous execution of commands/scripts obsoletes previous statement.

For methods which DO NOT return values:

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --session --type=method_call --dest=oh.no.more.qbw /oh/no/more/qbw<idX> oh.no.more.qbw.<method> <type1>:"<param1>" <type2>:"<param2>" ... <typeN>:"<paramN>"

Where:

<idX> is the QBW Instance ID
<method> is the Method to be called for the specific QBW Instance
<typeX> and <paramX> are the parameter type and value as per the specific Method Synopsis

For example:

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --session --type=method_call --dest=oh.no.more.qbw /oh/no/more/qbwid0 oh.no.more.qbw.set_param_string string:"cmdImgFilename" string:"new_image_filename.png" string:"update_layout"

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --session --type=method_call --dest=oh.no.more.qbw /oh/no/more/qbwid0 oh.no.more.qbw.dbus_method_monitor string:'on'

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --session --print-reply --type=method_call --dest=oh.no.more.qbw /oh/no/more/qbwid0 oh.no.more.qbw.get_position

[edit] QBW DBUS Events Monitor and Interceptor

[edit] Overview

As of releases newer than 0.1.9.3 QBW is now able to monitor and intercept DBUS events (like signals, methods, errors) issued by the system or other applications. For example:

Keyboard lock/unlock
Slide open/close
Bluetooth connections
GSM cells change
WIFI networks
Battery & Charging status
Changes in device orientation
Incoming Calls
Incoming SMS/IM

These events will then trigger the execution of a script which can be programmed to analyze and parse the intercepted event and perform actions accordingly.

The configuration is performed via the DBUS Event Monitoring section in Settings Dialog Box:

States if DBUS Monitoring is enabled or disabled for this QBW
Specify whether to monitor SYSTEM or SESSION BUS
Is the Match Rule as per this DBUS specifications

I encourage you to suggest possible enhancements or wishlists in this area and report them in the main TALK thread

[edit] Example

We will monitor the SYSTEM BUS with the following Match Rule:

type='signal',interface='com.example.app.Signal'

The cmd/script which will be executed when the event is intercepted is the following:

echo "$QBW_ID $QBW_EXEC_REASON"; echo '$QBW_DBUS_VERBOSE_OUTPUT'; exit 2

This is a simulation of the following sample DBUS command:

run-standalone.sh dbus-send --system --type=signal /com/example/app/Signal com.example.app.Signal.Test string:'Oh' string:'No!!!' string:'More QBWs!!!' boolean:true uint32:10000

And here's the output:

[edit] Create a new Basic Instance of QBW

After you have installed QBW package, these are the steps to create and start customizing a new Instance of the widget.

Tap on an empty area of the Desktop and gear icon for configuration will pop up in the upper right area of the screen

Click on the "Add widget" button

Scroll selector till you find "Queen Beecon Widget" and click on it

A new instance of the widget will be created with very basic default configuration

Now if you click on the Settings Wrench Icon you'll reach the Settings Dialog for customization

[edit] How and Where to store Icons and Images for your Beecons

If no PATH is specified in the Settings for Icons and Images, QBW will look in directories on the phone's internal memories in the following order:

First, the directory accessible via Bluetooth/PC Suite/OVI Suite or USB (Storage Mode).

/home/user/MyDocs/.images/queen_beecon_dir/

WARNING!!! When phone is connected via USB in Storage Mode this directory is not available to the Widget; so if you plan to use QBW when in Storage Mode use directory in "Second" point.

Second, the directory:

/home/user/.queen_beecon_dir

Third, the directory where QBW's Package Icons are stored:

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon/

If you want to replace a partial/complete set of QBW's Package Icons just create Icons/Images with same name in directories "First" or "Second"

If the specified image is not found, the following icon will appear:

[edit] Create an Exit Status driven Multi Images Beecon

Naive Dice Roller is a good place to start looking for such implementation.

[edit] Scripts/Commands with long output

Some scripts/commands may create multiple lines which are too long to be displayed on a single line. The widget will not wrap these. In order to wrap them you can use the fold command:

command-that-produces-long-lines | fold -s -w 80

The 80 in that instance is the maximum length of the line, which you can change. The -s option makes fold word wrap with spaces. More information is available from the fold man page.

[edit] Backup all Widget Instances

Apply Export/Save/Backup Procedure for Beecon Instance Data for every Widget Instance you want to Backup

Save content (Beecons' Images) of directories:

/home/user/.queen_beecon_dir
/home/user/MyDocs/.images/queen_beecon_dir/

[edit] Restore all Widget Instances

Apply Import/Load/Restore Procedure for Beecon Exported Instance Data for every Widget Instance you want to Restore

Restore content (Beecons' Images) of directories:

/home/user/.queen_beecon_dir
/home/user/MyDocs/.images/queen_beecon_dir/

[edit] Reset QBW to Default Configuration/Commands

Open up X Terminal (or SSH/Putty into N900) and issue the following command:

sudo gainroot (only if you are not already root)
rm /home/user/.queen_beecon
killall hildon-home

[edit] Completely remove QBW from your N900

Open up X-Terminal (or SSH/Putty into N900) and issue the following command

sudo gainroot

(only if you are not already root)

dpkg -P queen-beecon
rm /home/user/.queen_beecon
rm -r /home/user/.queen_beecon_dir
rm -r /home/user/MyDocs/.images/queen_beecon_dir/

[edit] Run every Desktop Application with different Icons/Sizes buttons

You can run every desktop application with a script like this and just change the image and size of the Beecon to one of your choice:

dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr /com/nokia/HildonDesktop/AppMgr com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr.LaunchApplication string:"<application name here>"

where <application name here> is application name that you can find in /usr/share/applications/hildon directory without the trailing .desktop

Example for launching the image viewer:

/usr/bin/dbus-send --dest=com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr /com/nokia/HildonDesktop/AppMgr com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr.LaunchApplication string:image-viewer

See EXAMPLE Here

[edit] Run Application in xterm with different Icons/Sizes buttons

You can run every application in xterm and customize a button on Desktop to launch it.

[edit] FAQs

[edit] Could you make an easy way to install new beecons/scripts please?

... perhaps define a standard folder structure inside a compressed file, perhaps some install directions file inside to guide installation, and use a custom extension; kinda like how Firefox does with XPIs, and add some GUI to install/uninstall them

This is a good question and I still haven't figured out a good answer.

Here are a few issues I mused about.

QBW is not a standalone application; it is a Hildon-Desktop/Home plugin (a library) with plenty of constraints and with a certain fixed integration with the whole system. Messing with it it's a pain in the a**
I tried to find a simple operational way to achieve what you are asking for, here, but to my knowledge and due to the nature of HD-HH I couldn't find any better, faster, simpler, cuter or leanier way.
QBWs, which get shared by the community or myself, are just mockups or proof of concepts which are meant to be "abused", "mishandled" and further customized to match each one's expectations and visual/functional taste
The complexity of some QBWs requires manual intervention to adapt to each and everyone's environment (Ex. the QBW Instance ID used for inter-widget communication varies on each machine). To my knowledge, the automation of this adaptation process is very time consuming and far from being error-proof. I preferred to focus my effort in the most interesting area of functionalities
QBW is a very powerful tool and can do a lot of good and nasty things... so: the more you expose its behaviour and the more "open" the code and effects will be
Maemo ain't for doubleclickers

I know there is no proper answer here...

[edit] Troubleshooting

[edit] Startup

If you are having issues at widget startup because of improper "Update on Widget/System Startup" settings:

Open up X Terminal (or SSH/Putty into N900) and issue the following commands:

sudo gainroot

(only if you are not already root)

vi /home/user/.queen_beecon

find updOnStartup=true (all instances supposed to be culprits)
Set it to false:

updOnStartup=false

Save file
Immediately issue:

killall hildon-home

hildon-home will automatically restart and widgets won't run any more at startup

More generally just open /home/user/.queen_beecon and change the Update Policies of your offending instance as per THIS section's specifications

[edit] QBW Warning! Possible Pango Markup Language inconsistent/unterminated Tag!

If you are using Pango Markup Language tags as output from your scripts, make sure all Tags are correctly written/spelled and terminated. Make also sure that there is an explicit newline at the very end of your output.

If you need to display the following special characters:

These NEED to be escaped:

The less-than character (<) starts element markup (the first character of a start-tag or an end-tag). Escape: <
The greater-than character (>) ends a start-tag or an end-tag. Escape: >

These MIGHT NEED to be escaped:

The ampersand character (&) starts entity markup (the first character of a character entity reference). Escape: &
The double-quote character (") can be symbolised with this character entity reference when you need to embed a double-quote inside a string which is already double-quoted. Escape: "
The apostrophe or single-quote character (') can be symbolised with this character entity reference when you need to embed a single-quote or apostrophe inside a string which is already single-quoted. Escape: '

[edit] QBW Warning! Expected/Shown Command Output mismatch. Possible charset different from UTF-8!

If you press TestDrive for a command and the Exit Status and Command RAW Output Buffer still displays "Exit Status & Command RAW Output will be displayed HERE" then maybe your output contains a charset different from UTF-8.

To have the Command Output properly displayed, try to append "<code.| iconv --from-code=ISO-8859-1 --to-code=UTF-8</code>". For example:

... command1 | iconv --from-code=ISO-8859-1 --to-code=UTF-8

[edit] WARNING! Bad Checksum! Possibly corrupt Import Instance/Command Data!

Every exported QBW Instance/Command Data is protected by a checksum value which is stored in the header part of the export.

There are a few reason why I chose to do that:

To preserve integrity of what the author of the QBW created (and supposedly assumed "working")
To prevent unwanted changes to the data due to clipboard copy/paste operations
To ease the QBW exported data import process, and avoid some extra effort in coding import/export routines, by using the g_key_file_* APIs

Exported data is not "pure" configuration text; it is "meta-text" with some extra escape characters (Newline, tab, carriage return, backslash, blank which are escaped as \n, \t, \r, \\, \s respectively)

This is why directly changing the data inside the import/export buffer or in a text editor before importing is strictly discouraged (unless, of course, you know what you are doing and side effects)
