4 years ago Update Node Red
- [ ] Enable first boot popup to set location settings - so SSL websites work
- [ ] Set chrome search engine to Google - some schools block duck-duck go by default - Waiakea HS is one of them.
- [ ] Set chrome bookmarks bar to have t3alliance.org and a link to 127.0.0.1:1880 for node-red
- [ ] Change background(there are 10+ good ones already on the Pi) so it is easy to tell our custom image from the stock one.
- [ ] Setup wifi network called rpi with raspberry password
- [ ] Add start menu links to a sudo file manager
- [ ] Add start menu link to install
- [ ] Enable I2C port
- [ ] Enable Serial Port
- [ ] Do not enable serial terminal
- [ ] Enable camera
TBD: update node-red nodes somehow?
Node-Red Nodes
- node-red-contrib-camerapi
npm install node-red-contrib-camerapi - node-red-node-pi-neopixel
curl -sS get.pimoroni.com/unicornhat | bash npm install node-red-node-pi-neopixelnode-red-node-pisrf- npm install node-red-node-pisrf
- node-red-dashboard
sudo npm install install node-red-dashboard - node-red-contrib-dht-sensor
cd ~/
curl http://www.airspayce.com/mikem/bcm2835/bcm2835-1.56.tar.gz > bcm2835-1.56.tar.gz
tar zxvf bcm2835-1.56.tar.gz
cd bcm2835-1.56
./configure
make
sudo make check
sudo make install
cd ~/
sudo npm install --unsafe-perm -g node-dht-sensor
sudo npm install --unsafe-perm -g node-red-contrib-dht-sensor
node-red-contrib-oled
npm install node-red-contrib-oled
node-red-contrib-bme280
npm install node-red-contrib-bme280
node-red-contrib-hostip
npm install node-red-contrib-hostip
node-red-contrib-cpu
npm install node-red-contrib-cpu
node-red-contrib-easybotics-led-matrix
- ben writing install script
node-red-node-ping
Possibly these are necessary - try without
sudo setcap cap_net_raw=ep /bin/ping
sudo setcap cap_net_raw=ep /bin/ping6
npm install node-red-node-ping
node-red-contrib-thingspeak42
npm install node-red-contrib-thingspeak42
node-red-node-pisrf - Ultrasonic HC-SR04 sensor node
npm install node-red-node-pisrfInstall library for servo? - maybe the DIO library does this already? Install many other node-red nodes we need! add to this list
Final steps
- [ ] edit the cmdline.txt file on the boot partition
After the Splash command paste in this line:
init=/usr/lib/raspi-config/init_resize.sh
command: sudo dd bs=4M if=/dev/sda of=/home/pi/IMAGE_BACKUP.img SD card will be mounted as /dev/SDA or similar to find what it mounted as, run 'dmesg' immediately after mounting and look for the message saying 'mounted sd card as ... /dev/SDA if SDB then use this line to copy to another external drive modify drive name: sudo dd bs=4M if=/dev/sdb of=/media/pi/256gbSSD/IMAGE_BACKUP.img Use PiShrink https://github.com/Drewsif/PiShrink wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Drewsif/PiShrink/master/pishrink.sh chmod +x pishrink.sh sudo mv pishrink.sh /usr/local/bin sudo pishrink.sh -s imagefile.img newimagefile.img Tool to mass flash SD cards - use USB3 SD card readers - they offload processing vs the USB2.0 versions I have tried https://github.com/aaronnguyen/osid-python3
DO NOT DO THIS ON NORMAL SD CARD IMAGE - ONLY FOR LEGACY KITS WITH 7" SCREEN
For 7" screen you must modify the config.txt with the following:
hdmi_group=2 hdmi_mode=87 hdmi_cvt 1024 600 60 3 0 0 0 hdmi_force_hotplug=1
