GENERIC-SENSORS-LITE
INTRODUCTION:
Lightweight implementation of W3C spec, targeting constrained devices.
Several JavaScript runtimes are supported (node.js, IoT.js using JerryScript)
USAGE:
By default simulator are used and generate random values, but following sensors can be plugged on pins of your favorite single board computer:
- BH1650: for measuring illuminance (i2c=0x23)
- BMPx80: for measuring temperature, or any compatible sensor (ie: BMP180, i2c=0x77)
- TCS34725: for measuring colors (i2c=0x29)
- HTU21D: for measuring humidity (i2c=0x40) Buy
SETUP:
Privileged access to hardware resources is also required too (setup or use sudo).
For instance on Raspbian:
sudo raspi-config # Enable I2C
ls -l /dev/i2c* || sudo reboot
sudo apt-get install i2c-tools
/usr/sbin/i2cdetect -y 1

#| 60: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --
#| 70: -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 77
USING NODE.JS:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/rzr/generic-sensors-lite
cd generic-sensors-lite
npm install
npm start
#| node example/index.js
#| (...)
#| {"illuminance": 123.}
#| (...)
#| {"celsius": 42.}
#| (...)
(...)
USING IOT.JS
First install IoT.js as explained at:
For Debian and derived (Ubuntu, Rasbian, Armbian):
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rzr/iotjs-express/master/extra/tools/iotjs/setup.sh \
| bash -x -e
For constrained environments:
make start
#| (...)
#| iotjs example/index.js
#| (...)
#| {"illuminance": 123.}
#| (...)
#| {"celsius": 42.}
#| (...)
Note: It has been verified on GNU/Linux not TizenRT yet (TODO).
USING NODE.JS
node lib/ambientlight "{ \"controller\": \"bh1750\"}"
DEMO:
An extra example is provided to show integration in WebThings project. Sensors are powered by webthing-iotjs and monitored on dashboard as progressive web app (PWA).
Usage:
make runtime=iotjs start
make -C example/webthing runtime=iotjs start
#| (...)
log: Serving: http://localhost:8888/properties
#| (...)
curl http://localhost:8888/properties
#| { (...) "illuminance":123., "celsius":42., "color":"#c0a175" (...) }
Respectively node could be supported too, just adapt to webthing-node API instead of webthing-iotjs (TODO):
make -C example/webthing runtime=node start
#| (...)
