Image

Based on MAX 31855 Cold-Junction K-Type Thermocouple and Raspberry Pi GPIO driven Solid State Relays.

Installation

Dependencies

We've tried to keep external dependencies to a minimum to make it easily deployable on any flavor of open-source operating system. If you deploy it successfully on any other OS, please update this:

Currently tested versions

* greenlet-0.4.2
* bottle-0.12.4
* gevent-1.0
* gevent-websocket-0.9.3

Ubuntu/Raspbian

$ sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev libevent-dev
$ sudo pip install ez-setup
$ sudo pip install greenlet bottle gevent gevent-websocket

Gentoo

$ emerge -av dev-libs/libevent dev-python/pip
$ pip install ez-setup
$ pip install greenlet bottle gevent gevent-websocket

Raspberry PI deployment

If you want to deploy the code on a PI for production:

* pip install RPi.GPIO

This only applies to non-Raspbian installations, since Raspbian ships RPi.GPIO with the default installation.
