OpenC3 COSMOS 5.7.0 - Modern, Production Ready, Command and Control

Welcome to OpenC3 COSMOS 5.7.0!

DataViewer Components

DataViewer is now customizable with custom components. Add your own DataViewer widgets to display textual data for your targets! See the demo plugin for examples.

SLIP and COBS Protocols

New packet delineation protocols that have historically been used with serial interfaces.

New download_file script method

Allows for easily downloading files from the browser in ScriptRunner.

Metadata Improvements

Viewing, Editing, and Creating Metadata is now greatly improved

Interface Modifiers

Interfaces (and Routers) can now take most of the same configuration options as microservices to allow for customizations such as setting specific environment variables for an interface.

Other Interesting Changes

1. Graphs now pause when you zoom in
2. TableManager can now handle files with names different than the definition names
3. ValueWidgets in Telemetry Screens are now better justified

Important Bug Fixes

1. ScriptRunner could write over original script with a subscript due to an autosave bug while running
2. TlmViewer width subsettings fixed
