Tidbyt + Revolution

Tidbyt app that shows the "Revolution" clock I originally built as a watchface for the Pebble smartwatch in 2013.

The design is based on the display of the Freebox Revolution, which was designed by Philippe Starck. It was originally envisioned as a watchface by Jean-Noël Mattern (Jnm), who posted it in the "Watch-face ideas" thread on the Pebble forums.

Installation

This app is not available through Tidbyt's mobile app as it uses features that (for security reasons) are not supported in community apps that run on Tidbyt's official app server.

Instead, it needs to be run using Pixbyt, a self-hosted Tidbyt app server for advanced apps.

1. Set up Pixbyt

  1. Create your own Pixbyt repo
  2. Configure your Tidbyt

2. Install the app

  1. Add this repo as a submodule under apps:

    git submodule add https://github.com/DouweM/tidbyt-revolution.git apps/revolution

  2. Add an update schedule to apps.yml under schedules::

    schedules:
# ...
- name: revolution
  interval: '* * * * *' # Every minute
  job: revolution

Usage

Build and launch your Pixbyt app server:

  1. Build the app server
  2. Launch the app server
