WebPanel, an open-source monitoring and control framework based on Javascript, SVG, and WebSocket, is launched at Evexia. The download includes the code originally posted on the LabVIEW, WebSockets, and SVG thread with some minor script improvements and the addition of some new elements (plus removal of some old, sorry). The included LabVIEW server has been brought up to version 2011. Here is a screenshot: As with the original version, this first released version is intended as a demonstration of using Javascript+WebSocket+SVG for remote monitoring and control. Prefabricated graphical objects are imported into an SVG template using Inkscape and arranged by the user in WYSIWYG fashion. The SVG template contains the necessary elements for loading the script and using the prefab elements. As with the original version, the demo server is written in LabVIEW. I am planning an open-source server probably based on jWebSocket and Java. I am also planning on creating a WebSocket subprotocol for binary data streaming. Obviously, the project is in transition right now. If you are interested, check back often both here and at Evexia. I will try to maintain the habit of posting new release information on this thread. if you are interested in contributing, message me. I have a subversion repository set up for the project that will remain at Evexia for the time being. In the future, it will probably move to a public, open-source hosting site. sm
