system daemon with a timer for relay activation

Postby tomasm » Thu Jun 22, 2017 6:05 pm

Hey,

Ive wrote for myself a system daemon that updates the status of 3 independent outputs depending on a given time.

i use it with this HAT for the RPI2 i.o to activate a few things i want running only at night.

i thought someone might find it useful.

All gpio actions are done through the wiringpi library and configuration using the iniparser library.

daemon code and systemd unit available through github.

heres a PKGBUILD to build this package for anyone interested.

comments are appreciated. keep in mind code might be a bit rough. but it works (tm).

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
pkgname=auto-rele
pkgver=0.1
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A simple daemon to automatically switch the relays on and off every day"
arch=('armv7h')
license=('GPL')
depends=('wiringpi' 'iniparser')
source=('git+https://github.com/tomasmez/auto-rele.git'
)
md5sums=('SKIP')

build() {
cd $srcdir/auto-rele
make auto-rele

}
package() {
cd $srcdir/auto-rele
make DESTDIR=$pkgdir install
install -Dm 644 "auto-rele.service" "$pkgdir/usr/lib/systemd/system/auto-rele.service"
install -Dm 644 "auto-rele.conf" "$pkgdir/etc/auto-rele/auto-rele.conf"
}
')
