What's Changed

• blink1-tiny-server

  • built-in HTML examples work again and server properly responds if they're disabled (#72)
  • blink1-tiny-server now has lastColor and color pattern support. These API endpoints now work:
    • /blink1/lastColor -- return last color sent to blink(1)
    • /blink1/pattern -- list color patterns in blink1-tiny-server
    • /blink1/pattern/play -- start playing pattern on blink(1)
    • /blink1/pattern/stop -- stop playing pattern
    • /blink1/pattern/add -- add a pattern to the server's pattern list
    • /blink1/pattern/del -- delete a pattern from the server's pattern list
      Note that unlike the API server in Blink1Control2 app, these colors patterns play using the blink(1)'s built-in pattern engine instead of sending colors over USB.
  • updated internal Mongoose HTTP server library to 7.12.

• blink1-tool

  • dmillis math fixes (#67)

• blink1-lib

  • now has parsePattern() and toPatternString() functions to parse to a from the text color pattern string format (e.g. "3,#ff4cff,1.0,0,#630000,0.2,0,#0000ff,0.1,0")

• blink1control-tool

  • Allow blink1control-tool to be properly quiet by @normanr in #55

• other:

  • "Dockerfile-ubuntu" updated to show how to build and use both blink1-tool and blink1-tiny-server from Docker.
  • add missing LDFLAGS to library build by @joggee-fr in #69

• In this release, you can do blink1-tool --add_udev_rules to do this for you

Changes/Fixes:

• MacOS: all apps built for x64 and arm64 (Intel & M1 chips) in a single "fat" binary
