pyFldigi
Summary / Context
pyFldigi is a small Python library that can control the Fldigi
application via XML-RPC.
Fldigi is a digital modem application that is widely used in the amateur
radio community. It acts as a digital modem, intended to be coupled with
a standard SSB or FM transceiver radio.
Features
Full implementation of the available XML-RPC client commands]
Get FLDIGI version, name, etc.
Modem: Get and set the modem type, carrier frequency, bandwidth,
etc.
Modem: Get and set various modem configuration options for
Olivia, WEFAX, and NAVTEX
Transmit: Set RX/TX mode to Transmit, Receive, or Tune.
Abort a transmit or tune.
Squelch: Get or set the squelch
Rig control: Get or set various rig controls, such as frequency,
mode, etc.
Logging: Get and set various log field contents. This is in the
context of ham contact logs, not debug logs.
Text: Send text to FLdigi to be transmitted
Text: Get text from FLdigi that has been received
Terminate the Program: Terminate the program gracefully by asking
it to close.
Application monitoring and launching. It is possible to launch FLdigi
from a Python command, and monitor it. Also the program can be killed
if it refuses to shut down gracefully.
Configuration: TBD. Reading and writing of the configuration
file(s). Requires a restart of FLdigi.
Applications and Intended Usage
Remote weather stations.
Portable HF setups. Typically, HF digital setups are bulky and
require several interconnected pieces of hardware, usually via audio
cables. This library, along with some custom hardware, could allow a
walkie-talkie sized HF digital radio that’s completely integrated.
Emcomm
‘Headless’ operation on a Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone, or any number of
other Linux-based single-board computers.
Putting a more ‘user-friendly’ GUI on top of FLdigi.
Web enabled FLDIGI via HTML5 and some Javascript, that could be
accessed from anywhere. Python’s Flask / Django along with Bootstrap,
and a few REST calls, for example.
Allow a phone or tablet to send and receive FLDIGI messages via a
custom app. There is an Android version of FLDIGI, but that might not
be the best approach for every problem. A more custom application
could be created to use only a particular mode and send pre-formatted
data, for example, with considerably less work than it would be to
fork the FLDIGI mobile application and update it.
