The original (.Net) version of the SmokeSignal service (campfire addon)

Visit www.smokesignalnow.com

• Built using Visual Studio 2010, targets on .NET 4
• SmokeSignal is installed on a single host (Windows 7+)
• It is configured to access your desired campfire, e.g. https://myname.campfirenow.com
• It is also configured to use a mail provider
• The install has 2 main components, the Windows "Service" and the configuration application (called SmokeSignal.exe).

That's it. From here on out smokesignal keeps itself up to date. It automatically detects new rooms and users and listens to smokesignals and sends them out as needed.

The solution file is "smokesignal.sln" found in the same directory as this ReadMe. There are 6 associated VS projects:

• Test_SmokeSignal Contains unit tests for a good part of the smoke signal functionlaity
• campfire.NET A little .NET wrapper library around the campfireAPI functionlaity needed by smokesignal
• ServiceInstaller VS configuration into for building the installer (SSInstaller.msi file)
• SmokeSignal This is the "main()" project of the window's service.
• NotifierLibrary This is the main guts of the window's service. This is where the action happens, the calling of the campfire APIs to implement Smoke Signal functionality
• SmokeSignalSetup This project defines the standalone configuration application. SmokeSignal must be configured using this app before it will work.

• A big item is getting installation correct. Currently elevated privileges are needed to both run the installer and to run the "SmokeSignal.exe" setup application (because it is modifying config files owned by the service). This is obviously lame
• Updates. I did a bit of legwork in terms of updates. But more is needed.
