Roadmap and missing features

[MrKevinWeiss]

A number of planned features...

• Add optional power control
  • Check if power control available for which boards
  • Turn all ports on by default whenever checking connection
  • Turn all unused off commissioned nodes by default once the action is complete
  • flags to prevent power options
  • Generic command to turn on all ports or specific nodes
  • Caching usb locations
• cleanup exception handling
• remove all or one board
• allow user boards that will not get overwritten
• Nice readme with some gifs of usage (added in 07e7a50)
• Add a CLI way and example get the port live based off UID to handle reconnecting within tmux session (Added a while ago)
• Improve getting started
• Add a session or exec timeout that will abort if the call takes too long
• Add tests that go through the cli (14642b3)
• Have a way to check who is locking the board (Log which user is blocking)
• Document server setup and permission requirements
• Add inet-nm-check to show a table will what is available/used/missing/feature_matched
• customize commands and envs in config file
• Add uid to check selection
• Time being used (logging system)
• Capture more than com ports (debugger, generic connection, modbus?, power)
• Distribution to other CPUs (host name, maybe just ssh connection?)
• Recently used or tied to a session so it can be reused
• grouping of devices (for example a board, programmer, power profiler)

Some things that should be done before having actual users:

• power control
• versioned configs
• remove CLI settable config files
• move some caches into the .cache/ folder
• simpler examples
