COLLECT_INFLUXDB_HOSTNAME undefined #4

Closed deroses closed 6 years ago

deroses commented 6 years ago

I've followed rtlamr instructions and can happily stream that data.

I've verified that the rtlamr-collect prerequisites are installed and working, but I've got some error with my env file. Whether I attempt to pipe rtlamr output to rtlamr-collect, or just attempt to run rtlamr-collect directly: I get COLLECT_INFLUXDB_HOSTNAME undefined as a response.

I'm not sure how to get it to correctly read rtlamr-collect.env. I am on a macbook pro (sierra).

Apologies for the setup question - thank you for the work on this project. Happy to help better define or diagnose the issue that I am having.

You just need to add the 2 environmental variables from the .env to your Mac I'm pretty sure. Rtlamr collect needs them for influxdb.

Bemasher has a good write-up in his readme as well, and I also got stuck on that part.

Keep in mind that rtlamr-collect.env is only used when running rtlamr-collect as a systemd unit where it is loaded and provides it's contents as environment variables to the process.

If you are not running rtlamr-collect as a systemd unit, you will need to set those environment variables before running the application, I would recommend exporting the variables in a script that also launches rtlamr-collect.
