Hello fellow ComputerCrafters,
for a long time I have been somewhat inactive on the forums. But there is a reason behind this: I can finally proudly present OmniOS.
The last 5 months, OmniOS has been my top priority in terms of coding.This is because the OSes on these forums too have little functionality. Of course some of them have a great GUI and are very easy to work with, but that is not the main purpose of an OS. It's main purpose, speaking in terms of ComputerCraft, is to add functionality on top of CraftOS. This is why I built OmniOS. An almost full list of it's features:
- FS
- Symlinks
- Custom Filesystems
- DevFS: for peripherals
- TmpFS: ram storing only
- CCFS: standard FS
- Kernel
- Multitasking (of course)
- Interprocess messaging
- Interact: a GUI api built specially for the needs of OmniOS
- Utils: An api offering a bunch of options as logging and table copying
- Sandboxing for a restricted FS and _G access
- Debug app that allows you to use OmniOS to it’s full extent
- A nice settings app that allows you to control almost nothing
- App permissions
- An OmniOS API
- A relax function: The release of OmniOS finally allows to me to chill around!
Now I get to explain the different functions, how they work, and why you should bother dedicating some moments of your short life to OmniOS.FS
- fs.link(destination,source)
This function allows you to see the contents of the source directory at the destination directory.
- fs.setFS(path,filesystem)
Sets the filesystem of the path to the one that is indicated. The different filesystems can be found under OmniOS/Drivers/FS
- fs.mount(destination,source,filesystem)
It is a combination between both previous functions.
- fs.getFS(path)
You know what it does!Kernel
- Kernel.newProcess(func,parent,permission,name,…)
Starts a new process in the multitasking manager.
@parent refers to the terminal to be used. "term" will redirect to the default terminal.
- Kernel.list()
This function returns a list of processes as well as their names and coroutine statusses.
- Kernel.switch(newTaskID)
Switches to the given process. IDs are numbers! They start at 1 and can be viewed if you type "list" or "ls" in Debug.
- Kernel.bindEvent(event,func)
When the event is detected in the event queue, the function is exceuted. A thread can also be given as an argument.
- Kernel.kill(id)
Kills the process. So sad.
- Kernel.getRunning()
Return the id of the process running at the moment.
- Kernel.addMessage(destination,sender,message)
And finally interprocess messaging. I'll let you figure out how it works. Remember, ids are numbers!
- Kernel.setSidebarColor(id,color)
Sets the sidebar color of the ID to the given color
- Kernel.setSidebarTextColor(id,color)
Sets the color of the "<" in the sidebar to the given color for the given process!
- Kernel.getName(id)
Returns the name of the process.
- Kernel.broadcast(sender,message)
Sends a message to all processes!
- Kernel.getMessages(id)
Gets all the messages in the form of a table, I guess! Anothe method is to do this: coroutine.yield("kernel_messages")
- A last one: Press the "alt" key at the same time as the number of a process and see what happens!Debug
Here is a list of the things that should happen when you type certain things into Debug:
"cmds": a full list of all the commands. Use it to explore the rest!Logs
Logs are an essential part of OmniOS. Mainly because it allows me to discover what screw it up this time! However, logs can be a burden to some, so there is an option to turn them off. Go to OmniOS/API/Utils.lua and set the variables doLogs or something of the likes to false. Tadaaaa.Screenie time!

Booting:
Multitasking:

Versions
Here you can see what changed over the different years versions.
15w33a:- OmniOS automaticall jumps to app when it is launched!
- Fixed the crashing of the Lua program!
15w43a:- Fixed error system, it is now displayed directly on screen. This allows you to bypass the difficult process of going to the log folder ans checking it manually. it's something!
- FS sandbox is also working correctly
15w45a:- Added the option to add more OSes in the BIOS.
- Some other small improvements.
1.1.0 or 16w40a
Hey guys,
after some heavy debugging during the last week I am rolling out a new minor version. "Why minor?" you ask. Well, this version does not add a ton of new features. It rather improves on the existing ones, and mainly fixes bugs and other annoying issues.
1.1.0 Update (Codename 16w40a)
New features:- Shell piping works somewhat decently
- It boots (It doesn't always.)
- Event redirection (One process passes all the events it receive to a child process. A child process is any process that was created by a given process and of which it has the handle.)
- reduced it's size drastically by removing useless crap from it. It now has the glorious size of 483KB. I could shrink it if I wanted.
- It logs stuff so that you can debug. Mainly for myself.
- All those linux bins in /bin. Some of the work.
Planned features in future versions:- I really want to improve the installer
- Inter-process-communication
- Devices, like random or tty (Can someone explain what tty is exactly and how it works?)
- Separates windows from processes, which makes visible output redirection easier.
pastebin run 2DMDuHci
Then type:
OmniOS/BIOS.lua
Note: It is possible to download previos versions of OmniOS typing:
pastebin run 2DMDuHci <version>
The versions can be found
here.By the way be sure to comment!
With love, Creator!
And it is my 1000th post!

Okeh, so my first impressions. Excuse my nonstandard numerical formatting because I am using Chrome and the forums do not like Chrome :P/>
1) I really don't like how applications open in the background, it's possibly a dealbreaker for me using the OS, I want to jump into the app. Plus a flicker on the screen is NOT enough visual feedback to know that the app has opened.
2) also the close tab button doesn't work unless you're in that tab… eurgh.
3) I like the BIOS! I wish it ran at startup though :P/>
4) Overall looks good, I need to look at it more when im not tired, but looks cool :P/>

Ok I like it but please fix the bugs. Its unstable and crashes everytime almost. Error message is blank and the "Blue screen of death!" terminates itself. Multitasking is cool but make so that we can close every app that is in there and that sidebar doesnt close itself after termination of an app. Settings button doesnt work.
And make it jump into an app when we run it.

First impressions are that the OS is very buggy and unstable. "lua" crashes on the first keystroke saying "bios:247: attempt to call nil".
The omnios/debug's "cmds" command lists the commands list, which is too big to fit on the screen, therefore you can't see all of them. Or, that's what it looks like.
"npain" crahes(I think this was sopposed to say "npaintpro", but there's no ".." so idk).
It looks like it has a lot of potential if you iron out the bugs.

Posted 11 August 2015 - 09:39 AM
nPain ;)/> doesn't crash, but the program ends since no path is provided and thus it can't open a file. Lua crashes, but I fixed that. Actually it does not crash because of OmniOS but because of the version change from 1.7 to 1.7.4. And if I added .. I would only be able to write npa.., which I decided is worse.
Thanks for the feedback!
I will fix other stuff you mentioned.

I've found a few problems:
- Aliases don't work in the shell.
- Lua prompt crashes with "bios:247: attempt to call nil" as soon as you press a key.
- Fake loading screen - I haven't checked your code, but APIs take no more than a few milliseconds to load.
- The sidebar closes when you kill a process. Not really a problem but it's quite annoying when you want to end multiple programs.
- Edit can't be started because you need to specify program arguments.
All in all, it's.. okay. I can tell you've put effort into it. It's better than most, definitely. But it does lack a lot in functionality. There's a file browser, a text editor and a paint program but for anything other than that I need to resort to the shell. The ability to add your own programs to the desktop would be quite a big improvement to that.
Anyway, good luck with your OS!

- I saw the aliases thing and I have yet to figure out, why this happens.
- The lua issue was fixed in the last update
- No fake loading! That'd be annoying!
- Someone previously complained it didn't close when you killed a process, so I changed it.
- That is a problem with the edit program. You can still open it using FileX.
Thanks for the tips!

PS: have you tried fs.link ? That is one big thing I am proud of!
I'll be honest, the virtual file system (
fs.link/fs.mount, etc…) does seem pretty useful - especially if there was some sort of remote rednet file system (or even something like my dropbox VFS). Just the idea of mounting a remote turtle to edit files gets me excited :)/>.
Oh, also: congrats on 1000 posts.

Just tested it out on ccemuredux. Looks pretty cool!
1. When using the terminal, the command 'ls' doesn't work (No such program). You gotta check that out, as well as any other regular bash commands.
2. Is there a keybinding for switching tasks left and right, or opening the task menu? That'd speed things up a bit.
3. When using the bottom menu on the main screen (the one that shows Shutdown and Restart and Refresh), and I press the left or right arrows, it just changes the background color to green.
4. On the main screen, the 'Bette' icon does nothing. What is a 'Bette' anyway?

Im not sure if this is a bug, but nPaint and Edit do not launch and Aware does nothing, only shows a black screen.
The ability to control this OS with the keyboard too would be helpful in some cases, like switching between taskes and so on.
I like the backgroundcolor option, but if I press one of the arrows (left/right) in the options bar on the desktop, the background switches to green. Why?
You can increase the performance by drawing only things you need. For example you redraw the full screen by pressing the arrows on the top corners, but nothing changes.
As already said in another post, stopping non selected tasks has to be fixed.
All in all a nice OS (or the beginning of one) ^_^/>

There is a way to control OmniOS with the keyboard.

Example:
Alt + 1 takes you to the Debug app.

Do you mean that you were intentionally trying to bug OmniOS?
Well I totally encourage you to do so and to report the possible exploits (or keep them to yourself for evil purposes).
I am flattered that everything works properly.
There is one bug I can't fix: when I launch the shell program from the desktop, it gets to use the root directory not the OmniOS/usr directory. I have still no idea how to fix that one.
I also don't mind you using the code for learning purposes.
PS: I was sure you'd post because 1) I saw you in the online member list and you were reading this topic 2) you always respond and I find that great!

I love this OS, and found somethings that i would like but it might not be possible here is some of the things if they are not added yet:
i would love to have the ability to have more OSes on the list like if i want the Chrome OS, OmiOS, and Rindows on the list then i can pick from the ones i have installed, that might not be possible tho. another thing i would like is to make my own shortcuts on the desktop with programs from the list(also that might not be possible. there is an error currently
a bug i found is when clicking the NPaintPro gave me an error of "cannot resume dead coroutine", another thing is when on filex and right clicking then "Run" i get the error "Main.lua:689: attempt to concatenate nil and string". in settings when i click "desktop", shortcuts, then the + on the bottom left i get the error Main.lua:46:attempt to index ? (a nil value)
some things may need work but this OS shows promise

Thanks for the feedback.
@thedigi: this is the kind of feedback I love because I know exactly what I have to fix. Thanks.
@LDD: By making my own, I have several advantages: I know exactly how it works. If I don't like it, I change it. I also can modify it very easily. Remember that CC is a learning platform, so how much would I learn about coding and the pain making a GUI framework is if I used Flare. I also believe that my framework has a slight design (not visual, but coding/idea) advantage and if I optimize it properly, it might be faster.
Edit: Adding new OSes is no prob. I'll work on the bios function of the OS and allow you to add more OSes and the path of the file that should be run.

I know. I will be fixing that. It is just that Interact was over complicated and overly badly designed. I am replacing it with another, better GUI framework.
I have been working on the wiki of OmniOS for the past few days, so if you feel like being overwhelmed with a nice documentation, be sure to
drop by.
The best written (and only complete) page is OmniOS API.
Some of you may have heard of Pixel, an Application Framework I am developing. (If you haven't heard of it, be sure to look at the
Gitter chat.) Well the good news is that OmniOS will completely switch to using it.

If there's any advice that I can give, try to make the color palate good looking. I try to stick with a gray background/white text, or lightGray background/black text for highlighted things. Orange text works nicely over gray, but not orange background.
I say this because the screenshot with the green background makes my eyes hurt. Color contrast is important!

I kinda feel like OmniOS is pretty broken now. Also there are a lot of things I have learned since, so I might go through an extensive rewrite.
Of course, I will also add new features, like full disk encryption.

It's not the installer, if you click the link you'll see a couple of random letters. If you add pastebin.com/ %S then you get to the installer
For example, right now if you click on the link, KitREnNB would apppear.
To get the actual installer you type
pastebin run %s
Which translates to
pastebin run KitREnNB
And by not available to public, I mean I haven't made a post about it yet.

Also, I think I have a solution. I assume you are using setfenv. Just get rid of it.
Edit:
Why? First of all, you probably didn't put _G in your environment. Secondly, you did say the problem had to do with environments. Lastly, I hate setfenv. It limits the ability for the user to make their own compatable programs.

setfenv is extremely useful. Not using it is like:
1. the entire OS not working, because without envs, functions don't often work properly
2. me, making OmniOS very insecure, since no sandbox is possible.

On the topic of environments…
getfenv and setfenv are Lua 5.1 only.
load and _ENV are Lua 5.2 only.
If I were you I would go for using load and _ENV instead of setfenv and getfenv because setfenv and getfenv are Lua 5.1 features and CC is slowly moving towards Lua 5.2, meaning that you may lose access to them.

Development of OmniOS has restarted. I have reorganized the entire directory system so that it looks more like *nix systems.
The task will be long, but the results will be worth it:
- better security
- more filesystems
- whole disk encryption
- ipc
- everything is a file
- a lot of stuff
- mainly *nix related features
PS: I accept the consequences of being bullied by DemHydraz over anything related to *nix systems.

One feature I did not mention was that there would be a new shell. It supports piping, which is nice. The kernel is almost ready. I need to finish the different functions that allow user space and kernel space to interact with it.
Basically, I'm doing my best to make OmniOS a *nix like operating system, because their concept simply works and is awesome. I'll also be adding Pixel to the packet, as I believe a nice GUI is a must.

Just a quick resume of what was posted:
- The shell uses pipes. These pipes do not use buffering, but behave like real pipes. Basically threads with overwritten input and output functions.
- The current version of OmniOS is not yet available for download, since there is a very annoying bug in the rewritten version.
- Yes, there was a complete rewrite of the boot and kernel code of OmniOS
- OmniOS now aims to be more *nix like, since they know what they are doing and I like their concept.

I've big problems with the f**king textutils cause of the global term.
Do you have the same problem with windows?
I thought on two solutions:
1. Loading the API for every program again and again
2. redirecting term, by switching between programs

Hey guys,
after some heavy debugging during the last week I am rolling out a new minor version. "Why minor?" you ask. Well, this version does not add a ton of new features. It rather improves on the existing ones, and mainly fixes bugs and other annoying issues.
1.1.0 Update (Codename 16w40a)New features:- Shell piping works somewhat decently
- It boots (It doesn't always.)
- Event redirection (One process passes all the events it receive to a child process. A child process is any process that was created by a given process and of which it has the handle.)
- reduced it's size drastically by removing useless crap from it. It now has the glorious size of 483KB. I could shrink it if I wanted.
- It logs stuff so that you can debug. Mainly for myself.
- All those linux bins in /bin. Some of the work.
Planned features in future versions:- I really want to improve the installer
- Inter-process-communication
- Devices, like random or tty (Can someone explain what tty is exactly and how it works?)
- Separates windows from processes, which makes visible output redirection easier.

AFAIK are ttys like multiple "instances" of the linux term (this is not very accurate but kinda is like that).
One thing I noticed, is that many distros boot their DE in tty8 (ctrl + alt + f(nmbr) to switch to another tty) and the others are basically terminals without having X booted.
Correct me if I'm wrong..
EDIT:
Wrote boot wrong 2 times .. it's really cold out here
Can't move my fingers lol

Also, I had some issues with piping and window drawing. Turns out it was a pretty stupid mistake, which
Exerro helped me find. So he gets some credit for that. :)/>

- ramFS: this means that true temporary files are now possible. They are also blazing fast.
- devFS: the filesystem itself is only setup to map peripherals for now, but the plan is have the device files too. The first one would be operational: dev/zero.

You can simplify the if statements (maybe it decrease your performance, idk):
if mode:match '^[aw]b?$' then

Smart one, I'll definitely see if it increases performance!
And thanks!

I meant decrease, because here is a function called.

oh sorry bout that. I have yet to do that. In the meantime, try "list /OmniOS/usr/bin" and experiment around.

Currently writing the documentation for OmniOS. Expect it to be ready soon. It will be located in OmniOS/doc

I'm not quite sure if I'm allowed to do this, but I want to help you out a bit :P/>
When entering a non-existing path in list(.lua) it ends up being stuck and needs a reboot.
Here's the fixed code:
--[[
Shell script: list by Creator
for OmniOS
]]--
local path = (...) or getPath()
if fs.isDir(path) then
for i, v in pairs(fs.list(path)) do
if fs.isDir(path.."/"..v) then
term.setTextColor(colors.green)
print(v)
else
term.setTextColor(colors.white)
print(v)
end
end
else
term.setTextColor(colors.red)
print("Not a directory.")
end
term.setTextColor(colors.white)
I'd be glad if I helped you out, maybe going to post further bugs when I find some.
EDIT:
This problem occurs on cat too, if you enter a folder.
New code:
--[[
Shell script: cat by Creator
for OmniOS
]]--
local path = (...) or getPath()
if fs.exists(path) and not fs.isDir(path) then
local file = fs.open(path,"r")
local data = file.readAll()
file.close()
print(data)
elseif fs.isDir(path) then
term.setTextColor(colors.red)
print("Path is a folder.")
else
print("File does not exist.")
end

Thanks a lot!
I made the suggested changes and gave you credit in the scripts themselves.

Devfs is now working quite well. When assigning devfs to a directory, it reads and loads all the files in it. They can then be opened like normal files and will return some output. For example (zero device):
--[[
Zero device
]]
local function instance(mode)
if mode == "r" then
local handle = {}
function handle.readLine()
return "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"
end
function handle.readAll()
return "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"
end
function handle.close()
handle.readLine = nil
handle.readAll = nil
handle.close = nil
end
return handle
elseif mode == "rb" then
local handle = {}
function handle.read()
read "\0"
end
function handle.close()
handle.read = nil
handle.close = nil
end
return handle
elseif mode == "w" or mode == "a" or mode == "wb" or mode == "ab" then -- try if mode:match '^[aw]b?$' then
local handle = {}
function handle.write(input)
end
function handle.writeLine(input)
end
function handle.flush()
end
function handle.close()
handle.write = nil
handle.writeLine = nil
handle.flush = nil
handle.close = nil
end
return handle
end
end
return instance
Once the new filesystem has been set, the contents will be compiled, and a function is returned that can then be called when the file is opened. When the file is read from, it returns a bunch of zeroes. I hope this explanation kind of makes sense.

I don't see the sense of a handle, returning just zeros.

That is what the zero device does. Other devices have different functions, like for example the random or urandom device. Or TTY.

Shouldn't the zero device return the number of zeros that you want and not a predetermined string?
like implementing a bytes argument in handle.read()
function handle.read(bytes)
local result = ""
-- check if bytes is less than 1, if it is a number, etc
for i=1,bytes do
result = result .. "\0"
end
return result
end

The idea is to provide a continuous stream, which I have yet to implement. And I know that this way is easier, but I'm trying to stay truthful to some linux features because they are awesome.

Hands down, we never had to go to TLCO level just to make our OSes, hell you could just make it ontop of that and if you want to prevent TLCO, just run TLCO and make such a kind of running shell and rednet, that no matter if rednet crashes , it continues running shell and / or restart rednet. Aaand then build your OS ontop of shell :P/>
Tho we still kick out shell for fun / make it look cooler / make it maybe even more secure (which is honestly not that needed. :P/> )
My purpose for cLinux is fun :D/>

Well, i thought you are programming on
OmniOS, not on a
Linux OS.
I think that we have to develop OSes for CC, not to replicate already existing OSes.
Our OSes should be unique.
Yes, there is a ccLinux and it is okay, because it is not a replicate with another name.
I think the idea behind CC OSes are to implement features, like a desktop environment or a piping system,
but not the working wise (You know what i mean). Maybe i got you wrong, so correct me if i am wrong.

I just think that devices are a neat idea and that I should implement them into OmniOS. It is true that I got the idea from Linux, but me saying that I am staying truthful to Linux was an overstatement. I just think that some of the features are nice and I plan to implement them.
