Steps to install OP25 (Boatbod) Linux Mate.

[wgbecks]

So I just edited the names in my TGID file to say PD instead of what I want as a key work "wps" and now the TG's shows up in blue. So it seems like the names in the default keyword can only be used. Was I supposed to be able to make my own keywords?

Yes, you can add or modify keywords as may be necessary. The keywords, or parts of them, are compared against the alpha tags
you created (assigned) to the groups in your TGID file. See my example below on adding and modifying keywords.

  "terminal": {
        "module": "terminal.py",
        "#terminal_type": "curses",
        "terminal_type": "http:0.0.0.0:8080",
        "terminal_timeout": 5.0,
        "default_channel": "MPSCS",
        "curses_plot_interval": 0.2,
        "http_plot_interval": 1.0,
        "http_plot_directory": "../www/images",
        "tuning_step_large": 1200,
        "tuning_step_small": 100,
        "smart_colors": [
            { "keywords": [ "fd", "fire" ], "color":"#ff5c5c" },
            { "keywords": [ "law", "lein", "pd", "police", "sheriff", "so" ], "color": "#66aaff" },
            { "keywords": [ "ambulance", "ems", "med" ], "color": "#ffb84d" },
            { "keywords": [ "rap" ], "color": "#37eb34" },
            { "keywords": [ "ecom" ], "color": "#ffff00" }

Here's a great HTMP Color Picker that you may find useful.

Thanks wgbecks that colour look up is very cool. I will get on this after work tomorrow. But it does seem like the original three can't be changes (keywords) names.

 

[jets1961]

Keywords are not working for me. In the TGID file I am using all upper case letters is that OK or do I have to use lower case letters in the TGID file? config.json attached (saved as text file).

You have "tgid_tags_file" commented out. Therefore no tags and noting to match in Smart Colors.

OK to get thing running originally I was pointing my command script to the single RTL json file (renamed for my location). It works fine with just the proper CC. So now I realzed as I was making chnages in the cfg.json I did not modify my command script to point to thsat file (sory da).

I have correctred a few errors in that file but it still will not open in terminal. Here are a few files to help out this is the command script:
./multi_rx.py -v 1 -c cfg.json 2> stderr.2

Merry Chrismas BTW

You need to comment out one or the other of the two terminal type options.

IE: Comment out the "http"127.0.0.1 ---- when it desired to run op25 form a terminal session. Conversely, you'd comment out the "curses" terminal type when it's desired to run op25 from the web interface (UI). You'd also use this option for applications whereby op25 is setup
to run as a system service where no terminal is attached to run the application.
