Module Download

[korang]

Is there a way to download a module in order to help me in the creation of mine??

install module, scp in and copy to your computer.

I was hoping for an easier way...

Directory indexing is enabled on the pineapple. This means once you are logged into the admin interface you can browse to http://172.16.42.1:1471/modules/ . Since PHP is server side I would recommend placing a script in that folder that will backup & compress everything in a tarball or zip file. PHP would be best so you can just click it then refresh. A quick & dirty way of doing it would be something like this in the modules directory:

<? system('tar -czf modules-backup.tar.gz *') ?>
[/CODE]

You would also need to put one in /usb/modules because /modules/usbModules is symbolically linked to that location.

Doing scp in this way will download the entire module directory to your local machine: (note the period at the end)

[CODE]scp -r root@172.16.42.1:/pineapple/modules .[/CODE]

Then use the wps button to send what ya need to your local machine. Can't get much lazier than that. ;)
