Add a new trx-frontend-appkit crate using objc2 + AppKit as a replacement for the removed Qt/QML frontend. The frontend provides the same feature set: frequency/mode/band display, PTT/power/VFO/lock controls, signal/TX metering, and frequency/mode/TX-limit input. Architecture splits platform-agnostic model (model.rs) from AppKit UI (ui.rs) to facilitate future UIKit porting. State flows from the async tokio watcher via std::sync::mpsc to the AppKit main thread; button actions flow back through a channel to stay on the UI thread. Feature-gated behind `appkit-frontend` cargo feature. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Grams <stanislawgrams@gmail.com>
trx-rs (work in progress)
This is an early, untested snapshot of a transceiver control stack (core + backend + frontends). Things may change quickly and APIs are not stable yet. Expect rough edges and bugs; use at your own risk and please report issues you hit. Features, tests and docs are still being written (or not).
The rig task is now driven by the controller components (state machine, handlers, and policies). Polling and retry behavior are configurable via the [behavior] section in the config file.
Supported backends
- Yaesu FT-817 (feature-gated crate
trx-backend-ft817) - Planned: other rigs I own; contributions and reports are welcome.
Frontends
- HTTP status/control frontend (
trx-frontend-http) - JSON TCP control frontend (
trx-frontend-http-json) - AppKit GUI frontend (
trx-frontend-appkit, macOS only, optional viaappkit-frontendfeature) - rigctl-compatible TCP frontend (
trx-frontend-rigctl, listens on 127.0.0.1:4532)
Plugin discovery
trx-server and trx-client can load shared-library plugins that register backends/frontends
via a trx_register entrypoint. Search paths:
./plugins~/.config/trx-rs/pluginsTRX_PLUGIN_DIRS(path-separated)
Example plugin: examples/trx-plugin-example
