The durations can be changed, or set to zero. This button could just as easily be your wet break button.

Before Open Evening you could change its configured action to “broadcast speech announcement” for example.

Want to completely re design the 3d printed part.

[Adam Laycock @AdamMLaycock]

Less than a week before I present @openschoolbell at @TheANME and I’m bench testing a major new feature…

Action buttons! This button is tied to lockdown, after holding for 2 seconds the light goes out and you can release. 5 seconds later it fires the action.

I'm up at the lectern again, this time showing off @openschoolbell and discussing when it's appropriate to build something yourself.

[Open School Bell @openschoolbell]

Come see Open School Bell in action! I'll have a @Raspberry_Pi on the lectern to show everything live!

[Open School Bell @openschoolbell]

Out today Controller 1.4.0!

New in this version a full translation system and Polish translation by @mbrzuchalski

We've also added audio sequences to scheduled rings, so now you can mix up sounds on a ring.

[Open School Bell @openschoolbell]

Controller 1.2.0 is here!

This release is mostly QOL improvements. Mainly the ability to assign a day type to a whole range of days. (Guess who just need to apply 6 weeks of "Holiday")

[Adam Laycock @AdamMLaycock]

So my project for the last few weeks s now up and running in school.

https://t.co/uzbSkDA1oG

School Bells, with lockdown and tannoy features, co-ordinated by a @remix_run / @prisma app, running on @Raspberry_Pi s. Text-To-Speech by #pipertts,

[Open School Bell @openschoolbell]

Now connected is the sounder running the screen, this pi touch display 2 is hiding a relay that is wired into the ringer wire input. Notice that satisfying clunk when we trigger the old bells.

[Open School Bell @openschoolbell]

Day and a half later, 10 speakers, ~130M of cable, 1 amp and 1 Raspberry Pi we have a working school bell in the new build!

[Open School Bell @openschoolbell]

Today is the day! Open School bell moves from bench testing to fitted into a building!

Here’s the start, a @Raspberry_Pi 5 connected to a 100V line amp. From here cable will be run out to speakers in every classroom and corridor.

@msetchell We actually had an issue a few months ago when it stopped working and within 2 days we had disk full errors in every IT suite and tickets from every teacher. Very firm proof that it's working and doing its job.

[Adam Laycock @AdamMLaycock]

Been meaning to write this up for ages. A simple #intune remediation to delete inactive profiles when the disk gets full.

@farnworth3_zak @remix_run @prisma We’re on 2.1.1 now, pretty happy with it in school. Taken over as our asset register entirely now.

[Adam Laycock @AdamMLaycock]

After 8 months of work I've just pushed v1.0.0 of Net-Doc, a documentation system built using @remix_run and @prisma.

It's working great for us and is extremely flexible. Definitely one of those projects that seemed ambitious on day one, but here we are!

[Adam Laycock @AdamMLaycock]

@msetchell Ah the undecorated school server room. Ours features original patterned carpet

[Adam Laycock @AdamMLaycock]

@ivzirs @devneill @prisma @nikolasburk For me it’s complex queries, without typed sql there is nothing to keep the types in line with the query.

E.g. https://t.co/CIAFYX1Vba

[Dev Neill @devneill]

That feeling when it finally works 🥹

@prisma TypedSql deploying successfully ✅

Thank you @nikolasburk & @AdamMLaycock for your help 🙌

[Adam Laycock @AdamMLaycock]

@devneill @nikolasburk @prisma @kentcdodds Sorry its part of the docker start in the app.

https://t.co/39nj8elAev

As it needs to run against the database its going to be working with.

It's been working great for the last few releases of our app.
