Re: LiveCode Server and Mac 10.7.5 Server

Work K-5 Education. Think, finger painting for jr geeks... The machines give them hands on, on machines that no one really care about. But are 'real world'. And it gives us a place to sandbox websites and programs before going live to the world, sort of speak. The Snow Leopard servers were great, ra...

LiveCode Server and Mac 10.7.5 Server

Finally happened.. Our Snow Leopard server has finally reached the point it is un-usable. Thanks to the Apple and the rest of the world making perfectly good machine useless. Think we have at least 10 xserves, with 4 being intel, that are waste of space now. We did dig up 10.7.5 server (Mac mini) th...

Computers Talking over OSes, over decades of AGES.

Been awhile since I've had a reason to post. Haven't had need for writing a program in a while. Now I do. Trying to send messages between a network of computers of various Makes, OS and above all ages. So far the easiest way we've found to send messages between system is Jabber, or Spark/OpenFire sy...

Re: MQTT & LiveCode

Yes, well more or less..

Trying to communicate with weather station, Software Defined Radio, and WeMos devices.

I'm pretty good with serial communications, but this is totally new. No clue how to get started..

Was getting good at parsing data, but can't get the data.

Re: Access Raspberry Pi to read data.

Ok.. Gave up on using a Raspberry Pi! But did get the rtf_433 working on a Mac with it own receiver. Been trying for two days to get rtl_433 to send data to my app using Shell.. I tested in terminal it works fine. I assume it is because it is streaming data, and isn't stopping. put empty into fld "f...

Re: Access Raspberry Pi to read data.

That would be cool. But since I'm only a computer teacher, and most of the funds come out of my pocket, the Cellular solution is out of my budget (could end up needed two as well)... I have been thinking about trying 433mhz, very cheap add-on boards. Using 433mhz and sending the data serially, I cou...

Re: Access Raspberry Pi to read data.

Would love to deploy/run LiveCode on a Raspberry Pi, it is one of the features I've supported and paid/donated for for years. Think the Pi would be a great tool for low cost, remote (disposable) computers. Now with wifi, they are easy to deploy in the field and communicate with. However getting data...

Re: Access Raspberry Pi to read data.

Yes.. That is possible.. My main goal was to do most of the heavy lifting using LiveCode. Since I can't program using LiveCode on the Pi, I figured using a desktop, to do a reach around to gather the data , parse then pass to server, might be possible. Otherwise I could do everything with the pi usi...

Re: Access Raspberry Pi to read data.

To start it'll be on our own Mac Server, Running Apache, PHP and LiveCode Server. Hopefully the end result/code will be executable on anything LiveCode Apps (computer) run on. Fill In: Raspberry Pi IP or hostname of PI running RTL-433, Fill in: Username for SSH Login: Fill In: password to PI (Can't ...

Re: Access Raspberry Pi to read data.

Ok.. rebuilt the Raspberry PI and got RTL-433 working again... Logged in manually as pi/raspberry.. Then issued command sudo rtl_433 -G with the resulting data. The data I wish to capture, parse and then share over the network. Can do everything, except log into Pi to issue the commands.. ~David pi@...

Re: Access Raspberry Pi to read data.

Using a couple of Acu-Rite 5-in-1 weather stations to post data on Weather Underground.. Would like to also display the data on our own website using a raspberry pi running WeeWx and RTL-433. RTL-433 and a usb SDR receiver captures the data sent from weather station.. The data is just parsed locally...

Re: Access Raspberry Pi to read data.

The goal is to collect data from a raspberry pi, on a local network, by another computer on network, that will parse the data to be displayed on a web page.

Weather data, door switch status, light sensors, and motion sensors.. (monitored by the Raspberry Pi).

Just normal everyday stuff.. <smile>

Re: Access Raspberry Pi to read data.

Had considered setting up a password-less raspberry pi.. But unsure if that would get me closer to reading streaming data coming from pi..

Raspberry Pi isn't as straightforward as Apple scripting. IMO.

Re: Access Raspberry Pi to read data.

NEWBE!

Pretty good at using Livecode to execute AppleScript and Microsoft ShellScripts.. And I've been using Raspberry Pi's for a few years.. But that was over my head.. <lol>

Thanks
