What I plan to do next

# Subscribing to VSS signals
#

This week I added support for subscribing to VSS Signals for the IC and HVAC Pages such that any changes made to their values through a different interface will now also be reflected on the Control Panel without delay.

# Refactoring Toggles
#

I also replaced the checkbox inputs for Insecure Mode and CAN to Kuksa toggles with animated toggle switches, Making the inputs more touch friendly and easy to understand.

# Kuksa-client 0.4.0
#

This week also saw slight modifications made to the Kuksa_Insatance module to support the newly released kuksa-client version 0.4.0.

However, I am facing setbacks while enabling SSL communication (Insecure Mode: False) between the host and the server when running on separate machines connected via LAN.

Command line mode:

kuksa-client --ip 10.42.0.95 --port \
8090 --protocol ws \
--cacertificate ./kuksa_certificates/CA.pem

Control Panel Config: I also tried modifying the configuration to specify the default config as follows,

KUKSA_CONFIG = {
    "ip": 'localhost',
    "port": "8090",
    'protocol': 'ws',
    'insecure': False,
    'cacertificate': os.path.join(os.path.expanduser("~"),
                                    f".local/lib/{python_version}/site-packages/kuksa_certificates/CA.pem"),
    'certificate': os.path.join(os.path.expanduser("~"),
                                    f".local/lib/{python_version}/site-packages/kuksa_certificates/Client.pem"),
    'keyfile': os.path.join(os.path.expanduser("~"),
                                    f".local/lib/{python_version}/site-packages/kuksa_certificates/Client.key"),
}
