Get rid of rpcd? #452
Comments
rpcd is needed for any ajax/javascript based webservice, for luci2 (a very small webservice) and also for getting statusinformation/ setting configuration via http.. it connects via ubus. it seems that gluon-firmware has done that some months ago via an extra new service called "gluon-announced". Now that could be migrated to rpcd now. |
Both rpcd and gluon-announce serve different purposes. rpcd can not be used in place of announced (and announced can not replace rpcd). |
@FreifunkUFO, gluon-announced does UDP-based multicast information exchange and can thus not be replaced by rpcd. The new status page which is waiting in the status-page branch could possibly be ported to rpcd, but for now, we just want to get rid of it, as we're not using it. |

Before making a Chaos-Calmer-based release we should look into getting rid of rpcd, which is a completely unneeded dependency of LuCI (it is used for authentication only in LuCI 1, but Gluon doesn't use authentication in LuCI). While rpcd is very small, having an unused daemon runing all the time doesn't seem like a good idea.
