OpenC3 COSMOS 5.6.1 Released

release

20 Apr 2023

ryanmelt

OpenC3 COSMOS 5.6.1 - Modern, Production Ready, Command and Control

Welcome to OpenC3 COSMOS 5.6.1!

This is a quick bug fix release to handle an issue users had upgrading from 5.5.x to 5.6.0. Please skip 5.6.0 and upgrade directly to this release. See the 5.6.0 release notes for the major new features in 5.6.x.

Important Migration Note from 5.5.x

TlmViewer widgets had to be updated to support opening screens from ScriptRunner which caused a breaking change for any plugins containing a custom widget. Plugins with a custom widget will need to update their package.json file to use @openc3/tool-common version 5.6.0 (or later), and be rebuilt/reinstalled.

Important Bug Fixes

The migration script from 5.5.x to 5.6.0 was failing
The block widget now works correctly

All Pull Requests in this Release

Fix BlockWidget and update screen by @jmthomas in #618
Combine log migrations by @jmthomas in #626

Minimum Resources allocated to Docker: 4GB RAM, 1 CPU, 80GB Disk Recommended Resources allocated to Docker: 16GB RAM, 2+ CPUs, 100GB Disk Also requires docker compose version 1.27+

OpenC3 COSMOS 5.6.0 - Modern, Production Ready, Command and Control

Welcome to OpenC3 COSMOS 5.6.0!

This release brings some great new features, and also includes some important bug fixes. Everyone is encouraged to upgrade.

Important Migration Note

Open Telemetry Screens in Script Runner

You can now open telemetry screens in ScriptRunner! Either existing screens or using the local_screen feature you can define a unique screen right from your script.

display_screen("INST", "ADCS")
wait(3)
clear_screen("INST", "ADCS")
wait(3)
display_screen("INST", "IMAGE")
wait(3)
clear_all_screens()
wait(3)
definition = '
SCREEN AUTO AUTO 1.0

VERTICALBOX "Test Screen"
  LABELVALUE INST HEALTH_STATUS TEMP1
  LABELVALUE INST HEALTH_STATUS RECEIVED_TIMEFORMATTED WITH_UNITS 30
END
'
local_screen("TEST", definition)

Our plugin generators now support custom widgets. Run with: openc3.sh cli generate widget MyWidget

Diff plugin.txt on Plugin Upgrades

Now if you upgrade a plugin and the plugin.txt file was changed, you will be presented with a diff interface that shows the changes and allows you to pick which lines you want to keep.

Install Plugins and Gems from the command line

The openc3cli command has been updated to support loading plugins and gems from your host machine. You can use like follows:

gem install openc3
openc3cli load /path/to/myplugin.gem
openc3cli unload myplugin.gem__12345667
openc3cli geminstall my.gem
openc3cli gemuninstall my.gem

log_message parameter added to cmd() apis

cmd() can now take an optional keyword argument called log_message that allows you to optionally not have a command be printed into the log messages. This is useful if you are frequently sending a command or at a high rate, and don’t want to spam the log messages. Note: All commands are always logged to our packet logs.

TlmGrapher Show Limits Updated

TlmGrapher Show Limits has been updated to color in the background for each section of limits. This makes the limits ranges much easier to see.

CRC8 Code

We now ship code to perform CRC8 calculations, on top of our existing CRC16, CRC32, and CRC64 functionality.

Important Bug Fixes

get_cmd_value and get_cmd_time now work correctly
The details dialog now works correctly with DERIVED items
Script instrumentation now handles more complicated cases with lots of newlines
Fixed run_script and the other script apis from Ruby
TableManager now properly formats binary fields
connect_interface now works correctly when given parameters
inject_tlm now handles packets with a PACKET_TIME
Fix target_index in packet log files

OpenC3 COSMOS 5.5.2 - Modern, Production Ready, Command and Control

Welcome to OpenC3 COSMOS 5.5.2!

Enhanced Local Mode

Local mode now captures tools configurations and global settings. These values are loaded into the system during init. Note that these files are written to the local volume as they are changed, but are only synced back to the server on a run of the init container.

Docker Compose V2

We’ve updated our scripts to use “docker compose” instead of “docker-compose” by default. On linux it will fall back to “docker-compose” if “docker compose” is not available.

TlmGrapher Show Limits

TlmGrapher can now include horizontal lines indicating the values of limits for a specific item on graphs.

Multiselect Combobox for Scripts

The combo_box() script method can now support multiselect returning an array of selections.

answer = combo_box("This is a multi-select combo box", 'one', 'two', 'three', multiple: true)

Improved Screen Editing Autocomplete

Fixed some issues with autocomplete in the built-in screen editor.

Traefik Redis support doesn’t work with Redis Cluster, so we added an HTTP endpoint to our API to give Traefik dynamic configuration.

Create Suites from Script Runner

New option to create a suite from the Script Runner menu.

Updates to the Secrets Framework to Support a secret_store Key

Some secrets systems have a “container” for a grouping of secrets. Added a new secret_store key to the Secrets framework to support this.

OpenC3 COSMOS 5.5.0 - Modern, Production Ready, Command and Control

Welcome to OpenC3 COSMOS 5.5.0!

Full Support for Bridges with Examples

Bridges are an easy method to give COSMOS access to hardware that doesn’t natively speak Ethernet. This release adds full support for bridges and new bridge gems that make them even easier to use. See the docs here: Bridges Documentation

Dynamic Route Support In Traefik

Want to create a plugin that adds a new API to COSMOS and exposes it at a route in Traefik? Now you can. This is implemented using the new ROUTE_PREFIX modifier to MICROSERVICE in plugin.txt. See: ROUTE_PREFIX

Bucket Explorer Upload and Delete Files and Support for Custom Buckets

Bucket Explorer can now upload new files, and delete files from buckets. Also you can add additional buckets to manage by defining environment variables like OPENC3_NAME_BUCKET.

Ruby Websocket Client API

Add a Ruby based client code to access all of our Websocket interfaces. Most importantly the Streaming API can now be accessed directly from Ruby. See: web_socket_api.rb

Command Line Generators for More COSMOS Features

We’ve expanded our generator code to create scaffolds for more COSMOS features. We now have generators for plugins, targets, microservices, conversions, and limits_responses. See openc3cli generate

Improved TlmGrapher Performance and Support for Reduced Data

TlmGrapher is now much more performant with high rate data. You can also now easily graph reduced minute, hour, and day data!

New NEEDS_DEPENDENCIES keyword for plugin.txt

If your plugin needs access to custom installed gems, but you don’t explicitly add them as dependencies in .gemspec (which you probably should…), you can now force access to the /gems volume mount by adding NEEDS_DEPENDENCIES to plugin.txt.

New WriteRejectError Support for Interfaces and Protocols

Want to add a custom protocol the rejects commands but doesn’t cause the whole interface to disconnect and then reconnect? Now you can by raising a WriteRejectError exception from your custom Protocol or Interface.

Cleaned Up Environment Variable Support for Scripts

Script Environment variables were a little confusing before, but now we’ve clarified and improved how they work. You can set global environment variables that are available to all scripts, and you can set individual environment variables for individual script runs.

Environment Variable Support For Not Installing Default Tools

We also added some new environment variables to prevent the installation of the standard tools. You can use these if you have customized one of the tools or simply don’t need one of our default tools.

Important Bug Fixes

Fixed a bug causing poor performance as soon as you had more than 1000 files in Minio
Fixed an issue where the first script run wouldn’t show up in Completed Scripts
Telemetry items are now case-insensitive in TlmViewer Screens
Several bug fixes in DataExtractor for large queries

OpenC3 COSMOS 5.4.0 - Modern, Production Ready, Command and Control

Welcome to OpenC3 COSMOS 5.4.0!

Bucket Explorer

COSMOS now comes with a new tool called Bucket Explorer that allows browsing files in whatever bucket technology is being used. This provides a cross-cloud solution with a Minio Console-like interface.

Metrics

The CmdTlmServer Status tab now includes a curated list of metrics that can be useful to monitor the health of COSMOS. Includes various counters and latency measurements.

The Navigation bar can now be organized into Categories that can be collapsed and expanded.

Permissions Updates to Better Support Local Mode on Linux

Updates to openc3.sh and compose.yaml to better support permissions when running using local mode on linux. This supports running from user ids other than 1000, and makes sure that files written to the host filesystem have the same user id as the user who is running COSMOS.

Better Plugin Installation Errors

Plugin installation errors now include line numbers, and attempts to capture all installation errors, rather than just the first.

Trivy, ClamAV, and CodeQL Scans

Our CI/CD process now includes Trivy scans for finding CVE vulnerabilities and ClamAV scans to check for Malware.

Other Highlighted Improvements In This Release

DataExtractor updated to handle very large lists of items
CmdSender nows lists parameter ranges

OpenC3 COSMOS 5.3.0 - Modern, Production Ready, Command and Control

Welcome to OpenC3 COSMOS 5.3.0!

New Secrets Framework

COSMOS now contains a modular framework for interfacing with different Secrets management frameworks. This first release stores secrets into Redis, and they can be retrieved as needed by Interfaces and other Microservices. Kubernetes secrets support coming soon in COSMOS Enterprise Edition.

MQTT Interface

Added a new interface to support the MQTT message bus. Packets can be associated with MQTT topics by adding META TOPIC topicname to packet definitions. This allows for easy integration with MQTT.

Interface and Protocol Commands

The Interface and Protocol base classes now support an interface_cmd and protocol_cmd method respectively. This provides a framework for defining interface and protocol level APIs without having to define TARGETS that are handled by the Interface internally. Usage examples coming soon. Possible use cases include things like reseting interfaces without a connect/disconnect cycle, commands to support key management, and changing internal protocol settings during runtime.

Other Highlighted Improvements In This Release

Overriding telemetry now works without needing the OverrideProtocol
BLOCK data can now be properly displayed in PacketViewer
Dependency updates

OpenC3 COSMOS 5.2.0 Released

release

13 Dec 2022

OpenC3 COSMOS 5.2.0 - Modern, Production Ready, Command and Control

Welcome to OpenC3 COSMOS 5.2.0!

RAM Utilization Reduced 2-3x

This release reduces total RAM utilization by 2-3x by combining the different microservices that support each target and each scope into a new single “multi” microservice. Each individual ruby interpreter uses 50-60Mb of RAM so this can save up to 300Mb of RAM per target, and up to 200Mb of RAM per scope over previous versions! Microservices can still be broken out with new keywords in plugin.txt if more performance is needed. Running COSMOS with our demo application now only uses about 1.3Gb of RAM.

Targets Can be Mapped to Multiple Interfaces

Another key feature of this release is that Targets can now be mapped to multiple interfaces. Typically this can be used to have a different interface for commands vs telemetry. Or it can be used to have multiple interfaces that can receive telemetry for a target. Sending commands to multiple interfaces is also supported, but generally not desirable.

New Stash API

Scripts now have support for a new Stash API that allows saving state that can be retrieved by later runs of the same script (or other scripts). Data is stored and retrieved as key/value pairs.

Other Highlighted Improvements In This Release

Support variable command timeouts for long duration commands
Improved Redis Debug Tab in Admin
Added support for global subsettings
Support DISABLE_MESSAGES for command states
Support multiline strings in config files
Made log buffer depths configurable
Added support for offline_access_token api to support Enterprise edition
Added a new migration system to support upgrades between versions
Improved cleanup microservice efficiency
Allow running scripts outside of lib and procedure folders
Added new plugin.txt keywords to breakout individual target microservices to support high load packets
Updated dependency versions

Key Bug Fixes

Received time was being lost in the current value table for packets with a defined packet_time
Fixed several potential errors that could occur in reducer
Enforce that TlmViewer screen names must be lowercase
Fixed a bug where out of time order packets could cause the creation of a huge number of log files

OpenC3 COSMOS 5.1.0 Released

release

17 Nov 2022

OpenC3 COSMOS 5.1.0 - Modern, Production Ready, Command and Control

Welcome to OpenC3 COSMOS 5.1.0!

The COSMOS name is back! We have completed an agreement to formally take over development of COSMOS and are now offering commercial licensing to customers who want the additional scaling and security functionality in our COSMOS Enterprise Edition, or for our COSMOS Base Edition if the AGPLv3 license doesn’t work well for them.

5.1.0 is a major release with key new features and performance enhancements. It also marks the end of the developmental 5.0.x series, and indicates that OpenC3 COSMOS 5 is now fully production ready! Going forward all releases will follow a versioning convention where the second digit 5.X will change when breaking changes are introduced, and the third digit 5.X.Y will change for minor or non-breaking changes that should be backwards compatible.

This release is highlighted by the following major Improvements to logging, data reduction, and the streaming API:

4x less disk utilization.
- With up to 5x less disk space required to store decommutated data, and an almost 2x reduction in the storage of raw data.
Added a new Bucket class to allow direct bucket integrations with cloud providers without requiring Minio.
- AWS will be supported in our Base Edition, and other clouds in our Enterprise Edition.
Data reduction updated to log samples for all non-numeric items
- This allows quick queries of every telemetry item in the COSMOS database
Logging changed from “file per packet” to “file per target”
- Greatly reduces the number of files generated and the number of files required to be accessed to playback all data
Log files are now written in a buffered fashion that stores packets in guaranteed time order
Log file format changes are not backwards compatible.
- Older log files will need to be migrated to the new format to be accessed by the Streaming API. Please contact support@openc3.com if you would like help migrating existing log files

Other Highlighted Improvements In This Release

Telemetry value displays now turn purple to indicate stale values
Added pause button to log messages in CmdTlmServer
Removed the gems bucket in favor of the /gems shared folder
Added support for OpenTelemetry and Jaeger to help debug mission specific performance issues
Added the ability to create screens automatically for any packet with the New Screen button
The API methods connect_interface and connect_router now support reinitializing with new parameters. This can allow changing IP addresses at runtime.
Added the ability to open and close TlmViewer screens, from screens
Packet received counts now survive restarts and continue where they left off
User selectable colors for TlmGrapher items
Added a QUIET command to the demo INST targets to allow running the demo without constant limits violations
Numerous dependency updates

Key Bug Fixes

The Limits API is now fully functional. Previously enable/disable limits and set_limits were not taking effect.
Setting TlmViewer widget widths now work correctly
Removed an issue where ScriptRunner scripts could output too much to STDOUT causing crashes
Fixed XTCE converter
Removed partially implemented Admin plugin download button
Fixed issues editing TlmViewer screens
Fixed certain cases of decom of array items

OpenC3 5.0.10 Released

release

16 Sep 2022

ryanmelt

OpenC3 5.0.10 is here with modular decom!

Modular decom brings support for JSON, CBOR, HTML, and XML based packets directly to OpenC3, and the ability to create your own custom Accessor classes that can read data from any data format directly, without a required conversion to binary first.

This will allow OpenC3 to interact with non-binary packets like web pages, JSON based API interfaces, and much more, with little to no custom coding required.

See openc3-accessor-test for a great example of defining packets in each of the new types.

Key Enhancements

Modular Decom
Updated open source dependencies
Added filename to get chosen filename from open_file_dialog()
Added PORT keyword to Microservices to support accessing them in cluster environments
Added Severity filtering to CmdTlmServer log messages and increased count of messages saved
Added refresh script button to ScriptRunner

Key Bug Fixes

Fixed positioning of events in Calendar near Midnight

OpenC3 5.0.9 Released

release

02 Sep 2022

ryanmelt

OpenC3 5.0.9 is here and with it a great new feature called Local Mode!

Local mode defines a standard structure for your project’s OpenC3 configuration, primarily plugins, and keeps it in sync with what you do through the web interface. It also encourages running from our official released containers, and not checking out the whole openc3 repo and building from source.

Local mode is best implemented using the project template now available at https://github.com/OpenC3/cosmos-project.

See getting started directions below.

Key Enhancements

Local Mode
Open source dependency versions updated
TlmViewer screen editor now has line numbers, syntax highlighting, and completion
Improved COSMOS compatibility

OpenC3 5.0.6 Released

release

29 Jul 2022

ryanmelt

I’m happy to announce the first release of OpenC3 and the birth of our new company fully devoted to this technology!

After 16 years of developing Ball Aerospace COSMOS, its creators, Ryan Melton and Jason Thomas, have created a new company called OpenC3 so that we can fully serve this technology and its users.

This release continues where we left off with COSMOS 5.0.5 and is appropriately versioned OpenC3 5.0.6.

This release rebrands the product to OpenC3, has important bug fixes, improves overall performance, and has some great new features including the ability to create telemetry screens directly from the GUI without uploading a new plugin.

Key Enhancements

In TlmViewer you can now create screens directly from the user interface
Cursors are now more visible
All API methods now support different scopes
The command line interface now supports running as root for environments where that is needed
Better error messages for many errors
Conversions now serialize their output data types and sizes

Key Bug Fixes

Sending binary blobs in commands now works
The Script API now properly enforces authentication
Limits Monitor now handles plugins being deleted from under it

All Pull Requests
