- Django [backend]
- SQLite3 [database]
- html, css [templates]
- Raspberry Pi 3 [HARDWARE]
- python 3.7.5
- django 3.1.3
- RPi.gpiozero
Django is used for URL mapping, working as perfect server. one of the methods is update, used to handle the request (POST) that contain a bool input to change the state of LED. Using GPIOZERO to actually work with built-in PINS of Raspberry Pi anytime user will change the state of LED, it will get stored in database. Also, with changing the state. one can also pass the message. Although it's just optional but message will get stored along with that change in state and timeStamp of when state was changed.
when you'll start working with this source code, for first serve of index page it will show LED is GLOWING that's because Last time i tested on it, i left LED open.
gpio15 is the pin number in which you'll have to connect LED in order to work. although you can change the pin number to whatever you want.
- If you are using python 3.8.x for some reason, then it won't work directly.
- to make it work, paste _sqlite.so in the root of this project directory.
- Also remember to update Raspberry Pi to it's latest version for complete gpio support.
Thankyou!
