Description

Web client for EPICS developed at SNS is now called WebEPICS. Taking into account coding language preferences of potential contributors from EPICS community, major design changes were made to the original prototype presented a year ago. Various web technologies were evaluated to ensure the best web practices are considered and used given the unique requirements this project has. In its basic form WebEPICS provides Channel Access and PV Access web interface through WebSocket protocol. This alone could be a great tool for building EPICS web applications. Built in is also capability to load display files from CSS (hooks ready for EDM and other formats) and turn them into HTML documents that look as close to the originals as possible.
