Not an issue but OpenWRT #3

Could the tracking process be adapted for OpenWRT?

mehdilauters-td commented 7 years ago

It depends what do you mean by tracking process and adapted for OpenWRT. I guess it would be as OpenWRT is based on linux. If main dependencies are available, there will be no problem

WifiScanMap is working with a master instance (running the main database) and optionals slaves (other WifiScanMap or esp8266-wifiScanMap) which are uploading their data to the master ( using http(s) ). To track devices, you will need to know the position of each OpenWRT (using gps, wifi estimation or command line)

Be aware that tracking real people is probably forbidden in your country.

I'm aware, maybe tracking wasn't the best choice of words :) What I meant is run the data gathering processes on the openwrt device as aircrack and gpsd are for sure available on openwrt

Basically I could write a script to record all details on the openwrt system and then convert it and feed it via json to a master instance. Thanks!

If I understood well, you have not to write your own script as wifiScanMap already have this feature.

Just enable the synchro on the master with -e and run your slave with -u http(s)://your.server:port

If for any reason you want to do it by your own, have a look to the Synchronizer object and the webui.

I should write a quick json api doc...
