farmware-tools 3.4.0

Farmware convenience functions for use in FarmBot OS.

Farmware Tools

Tools for use by Farmware. Starting with FarmBot OS v6.4.2, this package is installed automatically and available for Farmware to import. See the sections below for other installation configurations.

Example

from farmware_tools import device
device.log('hello')

If the above code is run within a Farmware, FarmBot OS will send a hello log to the FarmBot Web App.

If the above code is run elsewhere, the output will be the command that would have been sent to FarmBot OS:

{'kind': 'send_message', 'args': {'message': 'hello', 'message_type': 'info'}}

Documentation

from farmware_tools import app, device
