Cosmic Pi Software on the Raspberry Pi

This software runs on the raspberry pi, which is integral to the CosmicPi V1.5. The central point is a SQLite database into which data is stored, as well as read from. More instructions will follow when the software has reached the state of the V2 mock-up software.

Current features

• Create a SQLite database
• Read the serial output from the Arduino Due, parse it and store the information into the SQLite database
• Application for the UI, under development

Needed features to match up with the Version 2 mock-up software

• Read data from the detector into the SQLite database [DONE]
• Display basic information in the Web-UI [DONE]
• Start application on boot [In development]
• Start hotspot on boot [In development]
• Connect to a different WiFi via the webinterface [Not yet started]
• Working install procedure [Not yet started]
• SystemD services for all components [Not yet started]
  • Detector readout
  • WebUI
  • Hotspot
  • Database maintainance
• Interface for getting the raw data and database dumps [Not yet started]
• Interface to create custom plots [DONE]
• Include about page [Not yet started]

Installation

Clone this repository to the home folder of your CosmicPi (e.g. /home/pi) then run:

./install

This will currently do nothing. Just clone the repository.

Run

The software is normally controled via SystemD. This is not yet implemented, so you will need to run the scripts directly.
