Support for upcoming console cases

meleu

@michaelkirsch some things I noticed at a first glance:

some lines are indented with a tab followed by spaces (lines 45, 50 and 58). This should be fixed to spaces only.
if your driver is for rpi only, you can make the scriptmodule be shown only on rpi installs using some flags. Example:

rp_module_flags="noinstclean !mali !x86"

I think the function remove_kintaropcb should also do those steps to disable the driver (systemctl disable and stop).
I also think you should say what exactly that pcb_1.0.0_armhf.deb installs.

@meleu Thank you for your quick reply. I will do this today

MichaelKirsch

@meleu two questions. Where should i write what the .deb is doing ? And what program do you use to see if something is only indented or tab ? I use gedit on linux and that doesnt show that

Maybe in rp_module_help. You can break lines using \n. Example:

rp_module_help="Kintaro Pcb Driver\n\nThis module installs:\n- file1\n- file2\n- file3..."

And what program do you use to see if something is only indented or tab ?

Mozilla Firefox (look lines 45, 49 and 60):

I use gedit on linux and that doesnt show that

I also opened your file with vim editor and noticed those tabs, maybe your gedit is configured to display tabs as 4 spaces.

okay thanks i will do that :)

MichaelKirsch

@meleu yeah seems like gedit is not doing a great job with it i now fixed it within github

meleu

@MichaelKirsch some points

pcb.py into /opt/kintaro could be just the full path: /opt/kintaro/pcb.py. Same thing for kintaro.service.
I can't see why your driver needs doxygen. Is it really necessary?
I'm not sure if it will be part of RetroPie-Setup. Even if not, I think that a scriptmodule is the way to provide an user-friendly way to your customers install/enable your driver. ;-)

MichaelKirsch

@meleu okay i will change the pathes. Yes i just saw that too no i dont need doxygen :)

I don't think I want to include this is RetroPie but as meleu said you can provide it for your users.

MichaelKirsch

@BuZz Is there something you suggest I should do different? I would love to get some feedback from you as you're experienced with user friendly services.
