@Lazar-Demin I checked this morning and it seemed to be working. I was looking for the sensor chart.

Hello guys, I'm new here and wanted to share a simple little start to hopefully a bigger project. This is a great start to getting used to Python and MongoDB.

Whoever wrote the starter documentation, THANK YOU! I used that here.

Requirements: Install python3-light, pip3, flask, flask-restful on the Omega. Install plotly and pymongo on the client.

Source Code

The code that runs on the Omega is under App directory. This is a ultra simple flask api that reads the temperature. You can configure this to run on boot by adding python3 /App/App.py to /etc/rc.local.

You will need another computer running MongoDB. Using the other computer you can request the temp and store the data using the App.py script found in Client folder. Using the Graph.py script will generate a cool little graph.

Probably don't need 1 second intervals, but this was a really fun and cool way to get started with python. Google truly was my friend and I hope some else looking to use a DS18B20 sensor finds this useful.

I did a very simple api here http://community.onion.io/topic/3219/beginner-sensor-data-chart

@Lazar-Demin Yes the GPIO 0 was plugged into the SSR 3-32V+ and the ground was plugged into the SSR -

There was nothing connected to the SSR load side during my test.

@Lazar-Demin Does the wiring seem correct?

I think I broke it

I soldered up a prototype board using the same wiring diagram for the DS18B20 probe. I was dinking around with it this morning and wanted to add a SSR. I saw that tutorial on the LED control. I didn't think I needed a resistor in place because the SSR isn't voltage specific like an led is so I connected the SSR 3-32VDC to 3.3v + and ground to -. I confirmed I was able to get requests and update the GPIO value. Here is a video of it in action

from flask import Flask
from flask import jsonify
from flask import abort
import time
import datetime
import onionGpio
from temperatureSensor import TemperatureSensor
import oneWire

app = Flask(__name__)


# setup onewire and polling interval
oneWireGpio = 19  # set the sensor GPIO
pollingInterval = 1  # seconds

# Define SSR
gpio0 = onionGpio.OnionGpio(0)
# set to output direction with zero (LOW) being the default value
gpio0.setOutputDirection(0)


#Define our data structure
config = [
    {
        'id': '1',
        'name': 'Mash Heater',
        'gpio': 0,
        'IsOn': False
    },
    {
        'id': '2',
        'name': 'Boil Heater',
        'gpio': 1,
        'IsOn': False
    }
]


def start_sensor():
    # check if 1-Wire is setup in the kernel
    if not oneWire.setupOneWire(str(oneWireGpio)):
        print("Kernel module could not be inserted. Please reboot and try again.")
        return -1

    # get the address of the temperature sensor
    sensorAddress = oneWire.scanOneAddress()

    # instantiate the temperature sensor object
    sensor = TemperatureSensor("oneWire", {"address": sensorAddress, "gpio": oneWireGpio})
    if not sensor.ready:
        print("Sensor was not set up correctly. Please make sure that your sensor is firmly connected to the GPIO specified above and try again.")
        return -1

    return sensor


sensor = start_sensor()

def get_temp():
    value = sensor.readValue()
    return value


@app.route('/')
def hello_world():
    tempval = get_temp()
    return jsonify(
        temp=tempval,
        datetime=datetime.datetime.now()
    )

@app.route('/heat/<heat_id>', methods=['GET'])
def heat_get(heat_id):
    task = [task for task in config if task['id'] == heat_id]
    if len(task) == 0:
        abort(404)
    return jsonify({'heat': task[0]})

@app.route('/heat/<heat_id>', methods=['PUT'])
def heat_post(heat_id):
    task = [task for task in config if task['id'] == heat_id]
    if len(task) == 0:
        abort(404)
    print(task[0])
   # Toggle bool
    task[0]['IsOn'] = not task[0]['IsOn']
    if task[0]['IsOn'] is True:
        gpio0.setValue(1)
    else:
        gpio0.setValue(0)
    return jsonify({'heat': task[0]})

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run(host="0.0.0.0", port="8080")

However after 167 requests it stopped working. I did get data up until it stopped. Now my Omega2 won't boot, it just gets really really warm. Even with nothing plugged into the usb dock the Omega2 get's so hot you wouldn't want to touch it with your hand. Did I break it for good? What did I connect wrong?

Available apps seems to be broken.

Very nice, I'm planning something similar for a herms system. If I may suggest some improvements to your script.

• Add a timeout. Cycling the compressor too often without time in between will shorten the life of your fridge/freezer.
• Have you looked at PID control? Perhaps this could be integrated: https://github.com/ivmech/ivPID

Great start!
