Kelling also has a package for openwrt, not yet published. Ask him if
you are interested.
-relay-cmd is a simple script config to use the relay from the device its
-connected to.
-
-libremanage is an overly complicated command that is deprecated. Some
-problems with it:
-
-* IMPORTANT: libremanage right now does ssh relay command 1; sleep; ssh
- relay command 2. That whole thing needs to be made into a local script
- or else if the second ssh command fails, the relay stays in the state
- that's supposed to be temporary, making the server impossible to turn
- on without unplugging the relay from it's power and usb ports.
-* in the config, most options should have defaults. for managers,
- host/port/username aren't really needed, ssh_config can take care of
- that.
-* .libremanage.json should be toml or yaml so it can have comments
-* there should be a state command which runs hidusb-relay-cmd state
-* The script's function arguments should be made more clear / documented

GNUtoo has been working on a similar setup. see

+libremanage-color and libremanage-serial were for dealing with console
+issues in coreboot. However, most or all of the problems they solved
+were due to alyssa's mistake of trying to make it work over an "ssh
+command" which was not connected to a terminal. Simply sshing, then
+doing screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200, etc might fix all that. Once I test
+that out, I will remove these files.
