• Add additional dutch and austrian stations (thanks to @Knuspel)
• Add geocoordinates for several of those (thanks to @Knuspel)

Travel-Status-DE-IRIS-1.34.tar.gz (signature)

• Improve request speed when using with_related by ignoring subway stations which do not have results anyways (e.g. in Hannover Hbf)
• Do not forward unexpected IRIS message codes (ID ≥ 100) to the user
• IRIS: Add ->related_stations accessor

• Fix $result->route_pre / route_post accessors providing bogus data when all previous/following stops are cancelled. They used to return sched_route_pre / sched_route_post instead of an empty list in this case.

“Deep Sleep” allows an ESP8266 microcontroller to enter a very low-power sleep mode with less than 1mA sleep current. It works by connecting GPIO16 (which can be controlled from deep sleep) to the reset pin (RST) and programming the ESP8266 to provide a falling edge on GPIO16 after a specific amount of time, causing a system reset and thus a wakeup.

Here is how to use it on an ESP8266 controller (e.g. NodeMCU board or Wemos D1 mini) running the NodeMCU Lua firmware:

• Connect pin D0 (ESP8266 GPIO16) to RST (ESP8266 reset). Note that as long as D0 and RST are connected, you need to manually push the reset button when uploading new firmware using esptool – if that's too much of a hassle, consider using a jumper or another kind of reversible connection. Uploading NodeMCU applications is not affected by this, as it relies entirely on in-band signaling via UART.
• Do not use any GPIO functions operating on pin D0.
• Call rtctime.dsleep to go to sleep. When the sleep time has elapsed, execution will not continue normally -- instead, the ESP8266 will be reset and start over.
• You might also be able to use node.dsleep

• Travel::Status::DE::IRIS::Stations: Add geocoordinates fo some swiss and austrian stations

Travel-Status-DE-IRIS-1.31.tar.gz (signature)

• Travel::Status::DE::IRIS::Stations: Add EVA/UIC station numbers and use full names for non-german stations.

Travel-Status-DE-IRIS-1.30.tar.gz (signature)

• Result: Add ->station and ->station_uic accessors. These are useful to determine which station an individual train belongs to when requesting departures of multiple stations at once using the with_related option.

• Add QoS code 72 (no info/entertainment system available)
• Fix erroneous QoS codes 83, 91, 92

• Add from_json option to constructor

Travel-Status-DE-IRIS-1.28.tar.gz (signature)

• Add 234 stations missing from regular DB Open Data station list
• Add delay code 14 (Technische Störung am Bahnhof)

Travel-Status-DE-IRIS-1.27.tar.gz (signature)

• Add station Berlin Zoologischer Garten (S)

Travel-Status-DE-DBWagenreihung-0.01.tar.gz (signature)

• Initial release. wagen order and wagon type information for a specific train at a specific station. Documentation is incomplete, API may change without notice.

Travel-Status-DE-IRIS-1.26.tar.gz (signature)

• Fix DS100 code for Berlin Westkreuz
• Add station Bonn UN Campus

Travel-Status-DE-IRIS-1.25.tar.gz (signature)

• Do not ignore trains with arrival < lookahead, even if departure >= lookahead.
• Add delay code 66 (flooded area)

Travel-Status-DE-IRIS-1.24.tar.gz (signature)

• Remove erroneous double entry for Düsseldorf-Bilk
• Fix a warning when encountering unusual train types

Travel-Status-DE-DeutscheBahn-2.04.tar.gz (signature)

• Handle invalid XML when using the VBB backend

Travel-Status-DE-IRIS-1.23.tar.gz (signature)

• Ignore apparently useless "ZOB" (central omnibus station) links at most main stations. This decreases the average runtime and also fixes some S-Bahn trains being reported twice in München Hbf.
• Result->qos_messages: Skip superseded messages. They're still present in ->messages.
• Result->route_interesting: Filter Hbf suffixes (not just "Hbf"); include .hl.n (czech main station).

Travel-Status-DE-IRIS-1.22.tar.gz (signature)

• Add delay code 4 (unforeseen staff shortage, thanks to Fabian Schwarz)
• Add delay code 37 (technical failure in carriage, thanks to @marudor)

To increase flash lifetime and avoid problems with unexpected power cuts, I run all of my embedded Linux systems from a readonly root filesystem. This is a moving target: Depending on the software in use as well as the version and configuration of systemd and userland software, different adjustments may be needed.

I have created a readonly linux reference page containing all tweaks I know of at the moment, which are mostly tmpfs mounts and /etc/tmpfiles.d entries. I'll update it when I run by something new.

Preseeding is a handy way of automating Debian installations. With a proper preseed.cfg, a Debian installation can run completely unattended in about 10 minutes, including setup of users, sudo and SSH keys.

For future reference, here are the things I found helpful

custom post-installation commands

d-i preseed/late_command executes arbitrary commands after the installation is completed. I use this to set up SSH keys and sudo, like so:

in-target mkdir -p /root/.ssh /home/derf/.ssh; \
in-target wget -O /root/.ssh/authorized_keys https://.../keys-root; \
in-target wget -O /home/derf/.ssh/authorized_keys https://.../keys; \
in-target chmod 700 /root/.ssh /home/derf/.ssh; \
in-target chmod 600 /root/.ssh/authorized_keys /home/derf/.ssh/authorized_keys; \
in-target chown -R derf:derf /home/derf/.ssh; \
apt-install sudo; in-target adduser derf sudo

Adding preseed.cfg to virt-install images

--initrd-inject embeds arbitrary files into the root of the installation image. So, for preseeding, just add --initrd-inject .../preseed.cfg to your virt-install invocation.

Adding preseed.cfg to USB images (with UEFI support)

This is a bit more tricky. Basically: Download and unpack ISO, inject preseed.cfg into initrd, refresh md5sums, rebuild ISO and add UEFI support.

The following script should do the job for most amd64 systems. Usage: ./mkpreseediso debian-x.y.z-amd64-netinst.iso

#!/bin/sh

set -e

ISO="$1"
WD="$(mktemp -d)"

7z x -o$WD $ISO

cd $WD

gunzip install.amd/initrd.gz
cp /tmp/preseed.cfg .
echo preseed.cfg | cpio -o -H newc -A -F install.amd/initrd
rm preseed.cfg
gzip install.amd/initrd

find -follow -type f -print0 | xargs --null md5sum > md5sum.txt

cd
