# KrautStatus
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This repository contains documentation and sources of KrautStatus. KrautStatus
|
||
|
|
is the n-th iteration of a software/hardware project to communicate whether
|
||
|
|
Jena's Krautspace is open or closed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
KrautStatus consists of three components: an Arduino-sensor-combination at the
|
||
|
|
door, a Python script on a local server, and an API file served on by web
|
||
|
|
server.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Arduino broadcasts the current state of the door lock to our LAN. The state
|
||
|
|
is determined by a reed sensor in the door lock. In addition, it controls an
|
||
|
|
RGB LED matrix shield that provides a visual indication of the door locks's
|
||
|
|
state in the room.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The python script polls the broadcast state and pushes changes to Twitter,
|
||
|
|
Mastodon and our API file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The API file is just that, a JSON file. It contains, among other things, the
|
||
|
|
current state of the door lock.
