🛸 Remote Pi 🥧

The goal of this project is to control the IO pins of a Raspberry Pi from cloud queues, rest endpoints or over websockets.

• For now, only Google Cloud Platform is supported.
• Configuration is handled in a config file. See config.json
• Credentials are to be generated and made available. See config.json for credentials filename.

Setup

Setup account in GCP

• Create a project in GPC.
• Enable the PubSub API.
• Create a Topic.
• Create a subscription.
• Create a user with SUBSCRIBE on GCP PubSub. Download the credentials.json file.
• Edit the app-config.json with details for your PubSub config.

Setup project locally

• Clone the repo your local machine.
• Run dep ensure --v
• Replace projectID, topicID & credentialsFile variables
• Run go run application.go

Pi Setup

• The message must conform to type model/PinMessage.
• Use BCM codes as the PinIDs in the message.
• For more info on pins: see https://pinout.xyz/

🌈 Road map 🦄

🏆 Currently Stable & Supported

• Set output pin n to on or off over GCP PubSub queue.

🚀 Version 2 - Let's get some input (CURRENTLY IN TESTING)

• Subscribe to pin as input as some interval (PubSub)
• Interrogate pin for ON or OFF

🚀 Version 3 - Multi-cloud & Real-time output

• AWS integration as an alternative.
• Websocket host and reverse connection for real-time output pin control.

🚀 Version 4 - Real-time Input

• Subscribe to an input pin in with feedback at a paricular interval in real time.

🚀 Version 5 - Redundancy and Auditability

• Use both clouds together for redundant message delivery.
• Keep history of events / other details for a particular length of time.
• Garbage collection of events
• Interrogate history remotely
