##Commotion-OpenWRT
Commotion is an open source “device-as-infrastructure” communication platform that integrates users’ existing cell phones, Wi-Fi enabled computers, and other wireless-capable devices to create community- and metro-scale, peer-to-peer communications networks.
Commotion software exists for multiple platforms; this repository contains the build system for the OpenWRT router firmware distribution of the Commotion Wireless project. This repo builds the following other Commotion projects in order to create installation images for turning select wireless routers into Commotion nodes.
###The Commotion Daemon
https://github.com/opentechinstitute/commotiond.git
The commotion daemon is an embedded daemon and library that provides a common interface for manging wireless mesh networks.
###Commotion Quick-Start
https://github.com/opentechinstitute/commotion-quick-start
The quickstart is a easy to understand interface that allows a new user to quickly configure a node to their needs.
###Commotion Theme
https://github.com/opentechinstitute/commotion-openwrt-theme
The Commotion OpenWRT theme for the web-interface on Commotion wireless routers.
###Commotion-Apps
https://github.com/opentechinstitute/commotion-apps
The application suite allows for developers to easily advertise applications over a commotion mesh using mdns, users to easily find applications through the router app advertising interface, and node owners to easily manage and customize their application portals to better support community application support.
###Serval Crypto
https://github.com/opentechinstitute/serval-crypto
Serval's key management daemon allows transparent encryption and authentication of messages.
###Commotion Debug Helper
https://github.com/opentechinstitute/commotion-bug-info
The debugging helper creates custom, downloadable informational debugging documents for offline debugging, or to send to network maintainers. Each of these new tools needs testing to find errors as well as to ensure their usability.
###Commotion Splash
https://github.com/opentechinstitute/commotion-splash
A custom captive portal/splash screen and an interface for customizing it, built around nodogsplash (https://github.com/nodogsplash/nodogsplash).
##Installation
How to create a Commotion image from source: (the really really quick guide)
Run the following commands: (the $ signify the command line. Do not type the $)
$ git clone https://github.com/opentechinstitute/commotion-openwrt.git
$ cd commotion-openwrt/
$ ./setup.sh
$ cd openwrt/
$ make menuconfig
This will open a menu to allow you to choose your wireless chipset and customize your install.
$ make V=99
$ cd bin/
You will find a folder with the name of your wireless chip here. Within this folder lies images you can install on your wireless router.
