Indication of O.S. incl. Version
Posted: Wednesday 05 February 2020 9:20
For Domoticz it is shown in the upper left corner of the Dashboard which release is applicable.
If you have one or more configurations a long time in operation, after so many upgrades one of the aspects you tend to forget is which version of O.S. is applicable.
Through a command at Putty's CLI ist is easy to find
but is not the first aspect to mind if an upgrade is due.
Recent experience triggers to ease the way to check.
In category 'nice-to-have', would it be possible to add in that upper left corner a similar line indicating which O.S. is 'under the hood'?
If in the alert-for-upgrade a mandatory relation with an O.S. would be mentioned, then it is quite easy to compare.
Leaves initiative/responsibility at the User, not requiring an underground check in the upgrade whether the O.S. is compatible:
obviously that latter function would be next level of nice-to-have ....
