Install on server

Software

It is recommended to use a virtual environment.

virtualenv /usr/local/share/klimalogger
. /usr/local/share/klimalogger/bin/activate
pip install klimalogger

Then install hardware specific drivers e. g.

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-sht4x

Then setup the configuration file /etc/klimalogger.conf.

The sensor readout can be validated through

/usr/local/share/klimalogger/bin/klimalogger --check

The result should be JSON formatted measurement data.

In order to run the service for debugging use the following command line

/usr/local/share/klimalogger/bin/klimalogger --service --debug

Setup Service

Create a service configuration, for example /etc/systemd/system/klimalogger.service with the following content:

[Unit]
Description=Klimalogger Service
After=multi-user.target

[Service]
Type=simple
Restart=always
ExecStart=/usr/local/share/klimalogger/bin/klimalogger --service

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

and run

systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable klimalogger
service klimalogger start

to run the service.
