💬 Building a Raspberry Pi Gateway
-
Anyone tried using the new Pi Zero WH as a Raspberry Pi Gateway. Presumably by MQTT and using NRF24 radio?
@alowhum Have you been able to setup a gateway with your Raspberry Pi Zero?
-
Does the Pi Gateway support the MY_SIGNING_SIMPLE_PASSWD option? I couldn't find anything about that. I've been gearing up to use that feature in my network, but I've also been playing with moving my gateway onto my Pi Zero W.
@alowhum yes, to use MY_SIGNING_SIMPLE_PASSWD feature, add the following to your list of configure options:
... --my-signing=password --my-signing-password=<PASSWORD> -
Is there anyway where i can see if i have IRQ configured ?
ive build it a long time ago, but now upgraded to a nrf24 PA/LNA and have more an more sensors. -
look inside makefile.inc in mysensors folder, that should contain the parameters you set in ./configure
@gohanm, as it seems not ?, can i rebuild it easily? ```
SOC=BCM2837
CPPFLAGS=-march=armv8-a+crc -mtune=cortex-a53 -mfpu=neon-fp-armv8 -mfloat-abi=hard -DMY_RADIO_NRF24 -DMY_GATEWAY_LINUX -DMY_DEBUG -DLINUX_SPI_BCM -DLINUX_ARCH_RASPBERRYPI -DMY_PORT=5003

BINDIR=bin

@gohan make a copy of the makefile.inc and restart the ./configure command again you mean ?
ill try it tomorrow, too afraid to break things late in the evening ;) -
but ill have to do it sometime , just ./configure with all the options, build , test and install ?
-
if you only want to check if irq is enabled, otherwise you could just build it fresh with irq enabled and you can go back by replacing the mysgw executable

@MasMat Yes I was able to build it on a Pi Zero. I did a fresh install on Dietpi. It worked fine when I didn't give any configuration options.
Now, however, I am still trying to run something on the PGIO pins in paralel to MySensors again, and this is not working. As I speak the Pi reboots every 5 minutes.. Not sure what to blame yet. Domoticz, PiGPIO, or MySensors.

@alowhum I'm not using the GPIO for anything else.
I had everything working (mysgw-MQTT, Mosquitto, Node-Red and OH2) for almost 6h. Then I moved the set-up and everything went south: cant get mosquitto to start, cant get mysgw to connect to that or another Mosquitto broker, OH2 seems to ignore everything...
Spent the last 24h trying to resurrect Mosquitto but it's beyond me what's wrong.I remember reading that mysgw renders rest of the gpio unusable. Maybe that's giving you problems.
