Let me know how you use Mycodo and I may include it on this list.
Visit the Screenshots page of the Wiki.
- Raspberry Pi single-board computer (any version: Zero, 1, 2, 3, or 4)
- Raspberry Pi Operating System flashed to a micro SD card
- An active internet connection
Mycodo has been tested to work with Raspberry Pi OS Lite (2020-05-27), and also the Desktop version if using Mycodo version => 8.6.0.
Once you have the Raspberry Pi booted into the Raspberry Pi OS with an internet connection, run the following command in a terminal to initiate the Mycodo install:
curl -L https://kizniche.github.io/Mycodo/install | bashMake sure the install script finishes without errors. A log of the
output will be created at ~/Mycodo/install/setup.log.
If the install is successful, the web user interface should be
accessible by navigating a web browser to https://127.0.0.1/,
replacing 127.0.0.1 with your Raspberry Pi's IP address. Upon your first visit, you will be prompted to create an admin user before being redirected to the login page. Once logged in, check
that the time is correct at the top left of the page. Incorrect time can cause a number of issues with measurement storage and retrieval, among others. Also ensure the host name and version number at the top left of the page is
green, indicating the daemon is running. Red indicates the
daemon is inactive or unresponsive. Last, ensure any java-blocking plugins of your browser are
disabled for all parts of the web interface to function properly.
If you receive an error during the install that you believe is preventing your system from operating, please create an issue with the install log attached. If you would first like to attempt to diagnose the issue yourself, see Diagnosing Issues.
A minimal set of anonymous usage statistics are collected to help
improve development. No identifying information is saved from the
information that is collected and it is only used to improve Mycodo. No
other sources will have access to this information. The data collected
is mainly what and how many features are used, and other similar
information. The data that's collected can be viewed from the 'View
collected statistics' link in the Settings -> General page. There is an
opt out option on the General Settings page.
Before making a post to the forum or issue tracker on github, please read the Manual.
If Mycodo is supposedly operating correctly and you would like assistance with how to configure the system or to merely discuss something related to Mycodo, do a search on the Mycodo Forum for a similar discussion. If a similar topic doesn't already exist on the forum, create a new post in the appropriate subforum.
If you believe there is a bug in the Mycodo software, first search through the guthub Issues and see if your issue has already recently been discussed or resolved. If your issue is novel or significantly mre recent than a similar one, you should create a New Issue. When creating a new issue, make sure to read all information in the issue template and follow the instructions. Replace the template text with the information being requested (e.g. "step 1" under "Steps to Reproduce the issue" should be replaced with the actual steps to reproduce the issue). The more information you provide, the easier it is to reproduce and diagnose the issue. If the issue is not able to reproduced because not enough information is provided, it may delay or prevent solving the issue.

The Mycodo Wiki also contains useful information.
The latest API documentation can be found here: API Information and API Endpoint Documentation.
A proportional-derivative-integral (PID) controller is a control loop feedback mechanism used throughout industry for controlling systems. It efficiently brings a measurable condition, such as temperature, to a desired state (setpoint). A well-tuned PID controller can raise to a setpoint quickly, have minimal overshoot, and maintain the setpoint with little oscillation.
The top graph visualizes the regulation of temperature. The red line is the desired temperature (setpoint) that has been configured to change over the course of each day. The blue line is the actual recorded temperature. The green vertical bars represent how long a heater has been activated for every 20-second period. This regulation was achieved with minimal tuning, and already displays a very minimal deviation from the setpoint (±0.5° Celsius). Further tuning would reduce this variability further.
See the PID Controller and PID Tuning sections of the manual for more information.
All supported Inputs, Outputs, and other devices can be found under the Devices section of the manual.
Mycodo supports importing custom Input, Output, and Controller modules. you can find more information about each in the manual under Custom Inputs, Custom Outputs, and Custom Controllers.
If you would like to add to the list of supported Inputs, Outputs, and Controllers, submit a pull request with the module you created or start a New Issue.
Additionally, I have another github repository devoted to custom Inputs, Outputs, and Controllers that do not necessarily fit with the built-in set and are not included by default with Mycodo, but can be imported. These can be found at kizniche/Mycodo-custom.
I have always made Mycodo free and I don't intend on changing that. However, if you would like to make a donation, you can find several options to do so at KyleGabriel.com/donate.
Thanks for using and supporting Mycodo, however depending where you found this documentation, you may not have the latest version or it may have been altered, if not obtained through an official distribution site. You should be able to find the latest version on github or my web site at the following links.
