rustberry-weather

A weather station for the raspberry pi written in rust

What you need

• A raspberry pi with rust installed
• A Bosch bme280 sensor with breakout board
• Some jumper cables for the connection between the pi and the sensor

Setup your weather station

• Connect the vcc, gnd, scl and sda pins of your bme280 sensor to the corresponding pins of your raspberry pi
• Clone the repository
• Configure the Rocket.toml so the website is running on your desired adress, port etc.
• Setup an Postgres database and export your database url with export DATABASE_URL=postgres://username:password@domain:5432/yourdatabase
• Install diesel_cli with cargo install diesel_cli or cargo install diesel_cli --no-default-features --features postgres if you only wish to use it with PostgreSQL
• Either grant yourself access to /dev/i2c-1/ for letting the program connect to the sensor to run with cargo run server or build the executable with cargo build --release and run as sudo with sudo target/release/rustberry-weather server

Built with

• Rocket - A web framework for Rust
• Tera - A powerful, easy to use template engine for Rust
• bme280 - A rust device driver for the Bosch BME280
