ModemReboot

Puppeteer container for rebooting Modems

• Reboot your modem on a schedule using Cron.
• The specific navigation for your modem will vary,
• This is more of an example and isn't guaranteed to work for your particular modem.
• Many thanks to https://github.com/mbierman 's post and https://stackoverflow.com/users/6870228/keith
• Feel free to make a PR to add your own modem's script
• If no CRON Env var is passed it will reboot upon first run and then quit

Modem List:

Set this as your SCRIPT Env var

By default will run example.js you can change that by setting SCRIPT parameter.

Environmental Variables

Running

If your modem is already supported, run this container with these ENV options :

docker run -it -e URL=URL -e USER=USER -e PASS=PASS -e SCRIPT=yourModem.js -e CRON="* * * * *" agusalex/modemReboot

Otherwise see the next section

Configuring it for your own modem model

To debug with your particular modem first install nodeJs then install dependencies:

npm install puppeteer date-and-time is-docker

And run it: node app.js

Finally when you have it ready, make a PR or create an Issue with your script and I will add it.

If you want to build your own docker container thats easy too:

docker build -t "myModemRebooter" .

docker run -it -e URL=URL -e USER=USER -e PASS=PASS -e SCRIPT=yourModem.js -e CRON="* * * * *" myModemRebooter

Tips

Open the developer tools in the browser, inspect element click it and get the ID then you can use it.

For example login-button is the id of the button:

const form = await page.$('#login-button'); await form.evaluate( form => form.click() );

If the element does not have an ID, after inspecting it right click on the DOM of the element and select Copy Selector

Then you can use it like so:

cpage.click( "OUTPUT FROM COPY SELECTOR" )

Future Work

In order for this to be usefull we need as many Modem models scripts as possible, this cant be done without the help of others
