Gluon Firmware Wizard

This Gluon Firmware Wizard lets a user select the correct firmware for his device. Unlike some other solutions out there, this wizard does not depend on any server-side code. Instead, directory listings are used to parse the list of available images.

A demo is available here.

Configuration

Apache

Create a .htaccess file that enables directory listings:

Options +Indexes

Nginx

For nginx, auto-indexing has to be turned on:

location /path/to/gluon/builds/ {
    autoindex on;
}

Python

For testing purposes or to share files in a LAN, Python can be used. Run python -m http.server 8080 (or python2 -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080 if your system is horribly outdated) from within this directory (the directory where README.md can be found) and you are done.

devices.js

All available router models are specified in devices.js via regular expressions that will match against the filenames. The first parentheses-captured matched result will be interpreted as the model name and the second one will be interpreted as the hardware revision. The display name for the router model may be different from the one parsed from the filename and is given as a string:

"(device name from the file name)ignored(hardware revision)": "display name"
e.g. "(dir-860l)-(b1)": "DIR-860L"

The display name may also be given as an array containing the display name as a string and (optionally) the hardware revision as a string. If a hardware revision is given, it will be preferred over the revision matched by the regular expression. Specifying a revision manually is very useful when there's an image file that doesn't contain a hardware revision:

Filename: gluon-ffda-0.9.0~20160730-netgear-wndr3700.bin
RegEx:    "(wndr3700$)()": ["WNDR3700", "v1"],

When there is no hardware revision given, the image will be displayed for all revisions:

"(carambola2-board)()": ["Carambola Board 2"]
