For RNBO 1.2.3

Setting up

1. Configure Serial Port

sudo raspi-config : Serialport

2. Install Depencencies:

sudo apt-get install libjsoncpp-dev
sudo apt-get install curl
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

3. Clone Repo and Build

cd ~/Documents
git clone git@github.com:janmech/RainPotsRunner.git cd RainPotsRunner make make install

Run at Startup

Opition 1 - via .bashrc

cd ~
namo .bashrc

add at the end of the file:

if [[ ! $(pgrep rainpots) ]]; then
    rainpots 2> /home/pi/Documents/rainpots/log/rainpots-error.log 1> /home/pi/Documents/rainpots/log/rainpots.log
fi

Save and close

Option 2 - via Service

cd /lib/systemd/system
sudo nano rainpots.service :

[Unit]
  Description=RainPots Service
  After=multi-user.target
  StartLimitIntervalSec=500
  StartLimitBurst=5
  StartLimitInterval=0
  Wants=rnbooscquery.service
  After=rnbooscquery.service
  PartOf=rnbooscquery.service

[Service]
  Type=idle
  ExecStart=/usr/bin/rainpots
  KillSignal=SIGINT
  User=pi
  Group=audio
  Restart=on-failure
  RestartSec=5s
  ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 10
  StandardOutput=append:/home/pi/Documents/rainpots/log/rainpots.log
  StandardError=append:/home/pi/Documents/rainpots/log/rainpots-error.log

[Install]
  WantedBy=multi-user.target

Save and exit

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable rainpots

sudo reboot

NOTE: ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 10 is a workaround so that the rainpots service doesn't interfere with the RNBORunner. If the system/RNBO doesn't boot up properly try to increase the wait time (in seconds)

If it doesn't work disable service: sudo servcice rainpots stop sudo systemctl enable rainpots

and try:

Opition 1 - via .bashrc
