August 22, 201015 yr I'm messing around trying to do a Windows sidebar gadget for unRAID status. So far I am able to load the http://tower/main.htm and I can read though it to dig out information. I'm going to have the gadget show ping results and if that works pull up whether the array is started, the highest current drive temp if any are spun up, the version of unRAID installed, ... I'd much rather pull a page that has information in xml format or at least has tags with id's to make it easier to find stuff. Has anyone written such a page or are they planning on when 5.0 comes out?
August 22, 201015 yr I doubt anyone will undertake this for the 4.x series, as it's significantly easier to do under the 5.x series. It's already part of BubbaTools plugin for the 5.0 series : http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=7094.0 The functionality you could find useful is the ability to Query unRAID variables via the web interface [ http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=7082.0 ] If you want a single XML page, you could easily take the provided query variable example as a basis to loop through all the values spitting them out to any xml format you desire.

Is Bubba's BubbaTools plugin going to be included in stock unRAID or would it have to be installed by the user? I'm going to post the gadget in case others will want to use it and I don't want it to be dependant on anything that either might not be installed or might change often. Every time it changes it could break the gadget. Maybe if there was a bash or awk script that could pull information and generate a web page that is intended to be used by remote services and not to change often.
