Please add posibility to flash alpha build from remote URL or local file

[DeeKey]

Sometimes I need to flash alpha builds which are not available from dropdown.
I download them manually put in the folder and copy the name to the text box.

It is not a very convenient. Please add an option to flash from URL or from local file.

AFAIR, it should be possible to just copy over https://... link into version select box:
https://github.com/opendata-stuttgart/airrohr-firmware-flasher/blob/master/airrohr-flasher.py#L212-L223

No it does not work like that (
Try yourself...

This has been implemented since the first published version, and has been tested/used on Linux systems. (and AFAIR worked on Windows as well) What platform are you using?

Example: https://d.inf.re/b/ffc776f1e74faa0ca4f50842e37ec567.webm - current master branch, disregard the HUAWEI Modem board, don't have esp8266 board at hand - file is still downloaded off my server, and should flash onto the board properly.

This link does not work for me:
https://static.dmllr.de/airrohr/beta/builds-NRZ-2019-128-B8/latest_ru.bin

Always "Work in progress" message...

Current master branch seems to work for me on Linux with this link. Work in progress error shows up only if you press Upload button when the firmware is already being downloaded / flashed.

If error occurs during download, it should show up on the status bar (and next Upload button should again show Downloading..., or start flashing the corrupted binary, in case download got halted during data transfer - this is a minor bug - after application restart download is attempted again)

What platform are you using?
