## Intention
|
## Compiling and configuration
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
I forked this version because of my intention to build a specialized tracker for my mobile home. It should collect data from some sensors, weather condition etc. and send it to the APRS-System in two ways: If no wifi is present, it should just send the Packet to 433 MHz. If a known wifi is present, it should try to send the packet via wifi to the APRS-System direct.

**There is a german [quick start](https://www.lora-aprs.info/docs/LoRa_APRS_iGate/quick-start-guide/) page! Take a look ;)**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Dependencies
|
**There is a french [quick start](http://www.f5kmy.fr/spip.php?article509) page! Take a look ;)**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* [LoRa](https://github.com/sandeepmistry/arduino-LoRa) by Sandeep Mistry
|
### How to compile
|
||||||
* [APRS-Decoder-Lib](https://github.com/peterus/APRS-Decoder-Lib) by Peter Buchegger
|
|
||||||
* [Adafruit SSD1306](https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_SSD1306) by Adafruit (with all dependecies)
|
|
||||||
* [TinyGPSPlus](https://github.com/mikalhart/TinyGPSPlus) by Mikal Hart
|
|
||||||
* [AXP202X_Library](https://github.com/lewisxhe/AXP202X_Library) by Lewis He
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Configuration
|
The best success is to use PlatformIO (and it is the only platform where I can support you).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Change your configuration in /data/is-cfg,json
|
* Go to [PlatformIO](https://platformio.org/) download and install the IDE.
|
||||||
|
* If installed open the IDE, go to the left side and klick on 'extensions' then search for 'PatformIO' and install.
|
||||||
|
* When installed click 'the ant head' on the left and choose import the project on the right.
|
||||||
|
* Just open the folder and you can compile the Firmware.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Future plans
|
### Configuration
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
At the source i forked the complete configuration may move to [IotWebConf](https://github.com/prampec/IotWebConf).
|
* You can find all nessesary settings to change for your configuration in **data/is-cfg.json**.
|
||||||
It may possible i move too...
|
* To upload it to your board you have to do this via **Upload File System image** in PlatformIO!
|
||||||
|
* To find the 'Upload File System image' click the PlatformIO symbol (the little alien) on the left side, choos your configuration, click on 'Platform' and search for 'Upload File System image'.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* [ ] add sending packet direct via wifi to aprs-net (using work from Peter, OE5BPA)
|
## LoRa iGate
|
||||||
* [ ] some refactoring
|
|
||||||
* [ ] REST-API or communication with webserver
|
|
||||||
* [ ] web-page sensors information
|
|
||||||
* [ ] etc.
|
