I'm having trouble finding documentation regarding URL login feature of LUCI. I read about it on some forum somewhere on the internet around 3 years ago, and based on that created some code that relies on the feature. But as the feature documentation is hard to find, I came here to ask if someone knows where this feature is managed (in either documentation or lua code files/rows).
From what I know, the feature works by adding:
"luci_username=root&luci_password=pass"
To the end of url (default case). But there are some kinks that are weird behavior at best etc. So I'd like to know more about this feature.
I found out that older versions (OpenWRT 14.07 tested) don't support this, or don't work with the variable names as I wrote them. In newer versions (17.01.4 tested) they seem to work fine. I'm just interested in documentation of this feature, and/or changelog to it when it was changed and/or other information relating to this feature.
Yes, I am aware of that. Fortunately these routers we use are not in public networks, and are used for internal process management etc. Unfortenately upgrading to newer versions is sometimes impossible due to different reasons (client software or access to hardware etc).
Thank you very much! I'll check those out.
And thank you Jeff for the links, looks promising for creating more stuff on the platform!
