OpenC3 COSMOS Core 6.4.0 - Script Runner improvements including Goto!

Welcome to OpenC3 COSMOS Core 6.4.0!

Script Runner Improvements

Script Runner gained a bunch of new features. It can now Goto an arbitrary line using the right click menu as well as using goto X in scripts. It can execute a selection of script while paused to help debugging. We added a bunch of additional states to script status:

• spawning - Not running yet
• init - Initializing
• running - Running
• paused - Paused
• waiting - Waiting (either for a wait or a prompt)
• error - Paused with an error
• breakpoint - Paused with a breakpoing
• crashed - Complete after crashing with an exception
• stopped - Prematurely stopped
• completed - Completed successfully
• completed_errors - Completed but errors occurred while running
• killed - Forcefully killed

You can get this new information from the get_script(<ID>) API method. This will also be coming to the CLI soon! Finally we changed the environment button and better indicate when env vars are set.

Potentially Breaking Changes

• The internal methods reduce_to_single_packet and identify_and_finish_packet within Python protocols no longer take an extra argument and instead use an extra instance variable to match the Ruby code.

Other Improvements

• UBI containers updated to UBI9
• Updated tooltips to add delay and remove unnecessary tooltips
• Allow PreidentifiedProtocol to process old COSMOS 4 bin files
• Added FileInterface documentation
• Updated NASA cFS documentation
• Updated SSL/TLS documentation
• Added cmd-tlm-api and script-api controller tests

Bug Fixes

• Fix root redirect to avoid 404 errors
• Python UDP sockets handle disconnect / reconnect
• Fix TlmGrapher graph widths to allow display side by side
• Allow TlmViewer widget settings to override global settings
• Fix TlmViewer's FormatValue widget size and alignment

Prerequisites:
Docker - Running OpenC3 requires a working Docker or Podman installation. Typically Docker Desktop on Windows / Mac. Plain Docker or Podman also works on linux. We actively develop and run with Docker Desktop on Mac/Windows, and Linux on Raspberry Pi, so if you have any issues on another platform, please let us know by submitting a ticket!

Minimum Resources allocated to Docker: 4GB RAM, 1 CPU, 80GB Disk
Recommended Resources allocated to Docker: 16GB RAM, 2+ CPUs, 100GB Disk
Also requires docker compose version 1.27+

To Run:

• git clone https://github.com/openc3/cosmos-project.git cosmos-myproject
• cd cosmos-myproject
• Run Linux/Mac: ./openc3.sh run
• Run Windows: openc3.bat run
• Connect a web browser to http://localhost:2900/
• Have fun running OpenC3 COSMOS!
