The cumbia-telegram bot is a small server employing the Telegram bot API to establish a communication between an authorized user and a control system managed by the cumbia libraries. It can be used to:
- get notifications about the control system status
- read any source supported by the control system engines
- employ formulas to get custom notifications: alert sr/diagnostics/dcct_s4 < 10
Special care has been taken in realizing a safe application that protects the control system from both overloading and unauthorized access. The interaction with the messaging application is made effortless by the history, bookmark and alias modules. They promote tapping rather than writing. Read more on the cumbia-telegram dedicated page.

cumbia formula plugin & la-cumparsita app: manipulate results through functions & give life to an application without writing code
cumbia-formula plugin: mixing the Qt javascript integration and the cumbia formula plugin, read results from Tango and Epics can be manipulated by functions. The results can be displayed into any cumbia-qtcontrols widget. Check out cumbia-libs and refer to the formula plugin section for details.
la-cumparsita: a new cumbia utility that inflates a qt designer ui file into a real application without writing code. Nonetheless, the most demanding users can inject javascript functions into the graphical components to process and combine values from the devices. la-cumparsita seamlessly integrates with real Qt/C++ applications sharing the same cumbia model.

Connect with the Tango control system (and more...)
Write graphical user interface components and applications communicating with the Tango and Epics control systems. More control system engines can be added in the future and plugged into existing cumbia installations and applications.
Everywhere
cumbia is written in C++ and uses the Qt libraries to develop graphical user interfaces. This means cumbia applications work on desktop computers as well as on Android devices. In principle, cumbia is available wherever C++ and Qt are supported. Android and Linux platforms have been successfully tested and porting an application from one platform to another is just a matter of a few clicks with the Qt creator IDE.
