Mysensors Gateway on OrangePi (Zero) (opi)

[pansen]

@marceloaqno: are you planning to create a pull request? also, like @Reza suggested i think it would be smart to gather all information somehwhere, unfortunately mysensors does not seem to have a wiki. can we write an article somehow? i could take care of that.

[marceloaqno]

@mihai.aldea sorry about the github link mistake.

@pansen Yes, I will.

Is the orientation of the pins correct in the image?

@marceloaqno

Nope pinout is reversed!,

The link below shows the correct one!

[marceloaqno]

@Tag Oops, did I get it right this time (I reuploaded the image)?

@marceloaqno

Build the RF24 lib, without erros on the OPI Zero. and am now able to start the tools and radio seems to be recognised!. (was a faulty breadboard wire.... :( )

Used the follwing to for the radio:

RF24 radio(2,0);

Output from gettingstarted:

Sure here it is,

Radio seems to be recognised, still need to test data transfer...

[marceloaqno]

I created the draft for the official article: https://www.mysensors.org/build/orange

[mfalkvidd]

@marceloaqno and everyone else involved in this effort: great work! I love when people come together to solve a problem.

@marceloaqno
@mfalkvidd @Tag @pansen @Reza @mihai.aldea @hausinger

Wooow woow woow !!!

Only few days "off" and the problem to make work Mysensors on OPI are solved.

So many many thanks to all people here that have been involved to make that OPI good little boards can work with Mysensors.

This is the proof that when good people join can reach the most difficult achievements and all humanity can benefit.

Awesome work !

@marceloaqno

Great work!!! the GPIO part most probably needs some additions for OPI zero on the topic of the spidev1.0 driver and the GPIO pins, send it to you once i got everything documented.

Really many thanks for your hard work here!!

@marceloaqno
thank you. but i have error:

root@OrangePI:~# ls /sys/class/gpio/export
ls: cannot access /sys/class/gpio/export: No such file or directory
root@OrangePI:~# modprobe gpio-sunxi
root@OrangePI:~# ls /sys/class/gpio/export
ls: cannot access /sys/class/gpio/export: No such file or directory

in class folder i dont have gpio folder (i use a orangepi one with ubuntu os )

@Reza

You need to create the files after each boot.

After the modprobe, Issue this command:

sudo for A in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16; do echo "$A" > /sys/class/gpio/export ; done

This will get you the files.

orangepi one have 40 pins

[marceloaqno]

@Reza Is there /sys/class/gpio/export file on your OPi?

[Reza]

@marceloaqno
no i have not folder "gpio" in my orangepi
