New Docs
The documentation has been moved to GitBook! The contents of the documentation have not significantly changed, but should be much easier to browse and navigate. The new URL for the online documentation is: https://frc-elastic.gitbook.io/docs
Additional Shortcuts
There are now new shortcuts to open settings and robot connection. Ctrl + , will open the settings, Ctrl + k will connect to the robot (the driver station ip address), and Ctrl + Shift + k will connect to simulation.
ElasticLib and Notification Changes
There is now additional customizability to notifications set with ElasticLib, along with API Improvements.
Method Chaining
Similar to how Phoenix 6 supports customizing control requests and configurations through method chaining, ElasticLib supports customizing notifications through method chaining.
For example:
ElasticNotification statusNotification = new ElasticNotification(NotificationLevel.INFO, "Info!", "Your robot is doing great!");
/* additional robot code */
statusNotification.setLevel(NotificationLevel.WARNING);
statusNotification.setTitle("Warning!");
statusNotification.setDescription("Your robot has a small issue!");
Elastic.sendAlert(statusNotification);can be simplified to
ElasticNotification statusNotification = new ElasticNotification(NotificationLevel.INFO, "Info!", "Your robot is doing great!");
/* additional robot code */
Elastic.sendAlert(statusNotification
.withLevel(NotificationLevel.WARNING)
.withTitle("Warning!")
.withDescription("Your robot has a small issue!"));Display Time, Size, and More!
In addition to the nicer API, Elastic now supports customizing the time to display the notification for and the size!
C++ Support
C++ support for ElasticLib has been added!
