Show Node's WiFi-Channel and Mesh-Mode

[akira25]

Some community members suggested that we should include some more information in the hopglass map:

• node's wifi-channel
• its mesh-mode (adhoc vs. 802.11s)

The last information might be very useful in the future, as recent versions of hedy allow to choose between those two types.

This needs to be implemented in the OWM-package at first

As far as i can tell, wifi-channel and wifi-mode are already send via the owm-script.

I can see them at openwifimap.net, when i click on a note and navigate to the wifi-interface. Example

[SvenRoederer]

True, they are ...

[akira25]

That commit could be a part of the solution. I wasn't able to test if it works fine. And I didn't figure out, if the front-end can work with that.

[SvenRoederer]

CAn you PR this?

[akira25]

Sure. How do we gonna test it?

[SvenRoederer]

2 options for a test:

• deploying on live-host and see
• setting up a test-environment as referenced by the README.md

As we rewrite the owm-script in sh anyway, it would be nice to have this issue solved additionally. freifunk-berlin/falter-packages#159 (comment)
