D-RATS 0.2.x
About
Version 0.2.x aims to improve on the previous branch by adding a transport layer to multiplex and generalize the connection to the radio. The goal is to provide a session layer that can support multiple data streams, as well as automatic negotiation of specific data types. This version is functional, but likely less stable than the 0.1.x branch at this time, so choose wisely. Version 0.2.x is not compatible with 0.1.x.
Features
Aside from the features present in 0.1.x, the 0.2.x branch adds:
- Automatic negotiation of file and form transfers (which allows unattended operation)
- Ability to address a transfer to a specific station
- Packetized chat traffic with checksum validation to eliminate broken messages
- Ability to chat during a file or form transfer
Arbitrary TCP forwarding over the radio channel
- Ability to ping a remote station to test connectivity
- Retrieval of GPS data from GPSD server
Planned features for development in the near future are:
- Multi-send functionality like v0.1.x
- Improved proxy operation to reduce broadcast behavior
