OpenRemote Boss 2.0 Developer Release 4

I've created a developer binary for the latest OpenRemote Boss 2.0 Alpha4 tag which is available for download

This is still a developer release due to not all protocol implementations yet in place (and untested). However, the other main pieces of the controller are already in place, and the version works with the currently deployed OpenRemote Designer hosted at http://composer.openremote.org/demo

Note that in order to log in to the OpenRemote Designer, you will need to create a new, temporary account. Your existing OpenRemote website login will not work yet. Also note that these are still temporary accounts so just use them for testing.

While the current binary still carries the alpha tag, the codebase is stable enough to test with if you were planning to add your own protocol integrations for example. Or if you were planning to extend the existing protocol implementations. As said, the existing protocol implementations are not yet complete, so state updates may not be available yet, etc.

I will be working on completing these next.

Most of the existing feature branches have been consolidated. Notable omissions still are the new REST/JSON API to complement the existing REST/XML API and Marcus' earlier Russound protocol integration.

Also, none of the current consoles have yet been completely tested against this developer release but you can use the controller via its REST interface which is documented in Controller 2.0 API Documentation.

If you're so inclined, you can use the new iPhone, iPad and Android consoles from the source repository:

iPhone Console 2.0 : http://openremote.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/openremote/branches/feature/iPhone_profile_service
iPad Console 1.0 : http://openremote.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/openremote/branches/feature/iPad_iPhone_universal_app_profile_service
Android Console 2.0 : http://openremote.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/openremote/branches/feature/Android_profile_service

One of the changes you will notice when using the new OpenRemote Boss 2.0 Controller is that it now allows you to directly sync with your configuration in the OpenRemote Boss Designer. It is not necessary to separately export and upload your configuration from local file system anymore (although that remains an option).
