It seems we have OvmsNotify.Raise() already. I am implementing OvmsEvents and OvmsConfig now. I will just keep config simple (no access to protected variables) for the moment. We can revisit this if/when we have a secure way of setting App permissions. Regards, Mark

Also missing: OvmsEvent (raise) OvmsNotify (raise) …these would be especially valuable for communication between module and web plugins as well as MQTT listeners.
We also need an HTTP/HTTPS client accessable from scripts. Our OvmsHttp implementation needs to be replaced by the IDF HTTPS client.
Simple file I/O for scripts would also be valuable (e.g. scripts writing custom data logs to SD).
Script access to protected config values could be granted by a general API key mechanism, as planned for the web API (/api/execute). I.e. the script needs to use a valid API token to access protected configs. An API token could include a set of specific grants & denies, so we can extend that as needed to also cover other potentially critical stuff like network & file access. Similar to App permissions on Android / iOS.

Michael’s work has brought up an issue that we seem to be missing some javascript integrations.
We have:
OvmsCommand OvmsLocation OvmsMetrics OvmsVehicle PubSub (to ovms events)
Obvious ones missing are:
OvmsConfig OvmsWebServer
I can do OvmsConfig, but one question: Do we allow scripts access to protected config values? I think not (as that would void the entire protection system with a ’script eval JSON.print(…)', but is a limitation). Comments?
It would be interesting to see scripts extend the OvmsWebServer, so urls could be mapped to scripts - but not sure of the practical use of that vs plugins.
