Requirements

Supervisor apt install supervisor
MySQL service is also required to be running on the same machine. apt install mysql-server5.5

During installation, setup will populate the database, but a root account with no password is required
for the install to structure and populate the database.


Optional
For notifications and background tasks, a redis server is required.
apt install redis


Installation
The monitor was designed to run on a Raspberry Pi 3 or CM3 module. For testing you can install it
on a Linux machine and with it, the GPIO emulator GPIOEmu will be
installed, which takes the place of the RPi.GPIO
package.

Note
Validation requests are handled through Raspberry Pi’s UART so if running on a Pi3 will need the BT module disabled and the pins configured for UART communications.


Installation can be accomplished with
During installation several files are written to areas that require elevated priviledges etc. /etc/supervisor/conf.d
sudo pip3 install modislock-monitor

Database Population
Population of the database happens at installation but can be accomplished after the installation if you don’t have a mysql instance running by executing the initialization
script found in /etc/modis/modislock_init.sql



Options
You can adapt the configuration of the monitor by modifying the config/default.py or config/development.py or
config/production.py files based on your mode of operation.
