This application is intended to run as a daemon on a RaspberryPi with a US?B attached GMC-320, saving radiation data to a redis queue at given time intervals.
It is expected that another daemon will deal with transferring the data from the queue to data collection points (whether that is a GCP Pub/Sub MTTQ endpoint, a file server, an FTP server, a REST or API interface or similar...)
Please ensure this is run on a RaspBerryPi SOE to this specification, including:
- a sensaweb user
- a /etc/sensaweb/node_id file created
- redis server, python client and c libs (redis-server, python-redis, libhiredis-dev)
- python libs (python-serial python-pathlib2 python-lockfile python-daemon python-setproctitle)
To run the app manually you first download the app:
$ git clone https://github.com/olilogic77/sensa-rpi-gmc
$ cd sensa-rpi-gmc
To run the app:
$ python main.py
This will open the application and run it once. To run it continuously (control+c to exit):
$ python main.py -c
$ python main.py --continuous
And to execute it as a daemon ($ pkill sensa-rpi-gmc to close the daemon):
$ python main.py -d
$ python main.py --daemon
Leave the config file empty to use all the defaults compiled into the application, add config variables to override compiled values where ever you see Tk.get_config() used. // TODO! move detail
