Revision as of 19:47, 17 December 2017

We're getting together at the annual CCC conference, 34C3, for a sigrok hackathon. In addition to the usual "whatever we feel like hacking on", we also have several architectural decision to make, and doing this in person is a lot easier. If you want to be part of the conversation and decision-making process, show up!

What's decided here is what goes.

New sigrok file format

File format:sigrok/v3

What's missing to make it happen?

Discuss concepts for sparse data loading presented here: https://sourceforge.net/p/sigrok/mailman/message/25153496/

Handling of RLE data

What is needed to make libsigrok able to handle RLE data? Should there be a common format that drivers have to convert custom formats to? Should there be a new session bus packet type? What are the implications?

See also the discussion from 30C3 here.

Analog I/O for libsigrokdecode

What are the requirements/use cases? What's needed to make it happen?


Flowgraph architecture

How do we achieve this step-by-step? It won't ever happen if it's a huge change :) Currently, plans are to make PV have a modularized internal structure and use flowgraphs internally to gather experience and have something working


PV: Decode table view

The decode table view isn't going to be very usable at the moment because it lacks metadata that libsigrokdecode should provide. We should discuss what the decode table view should offer in terms of functionality and what's needed in libsigrokdecode to make it happen.


PV: Scope UI

PV is getting closer and closer to being usable for analog scopes. We should discuss ideas how a UI could look like that allows for full remote-control operation. There are good and bad UI examples to draw ideas from.


PV: Create "wishlist" wiki page

Users don't know what features are planned and when. Soeren has his own (non-public) to-do list and there are some items in the bugzilla. This should be unified so that users can see what's planned and what's not on our radar yet.
