Share My Creation [ABMaterial] Weather Dashboard

Objectives
To create a real-time Weather Dashboard (using TinkerForge) devices, accessed via browser, showing the humidity, temperature, air pressure in gages (Custom component JustGage) & charts (Custom component Charts.js). The server is running on a Raspberry Pi. All connected clients are updated automatically.
More information in the attached ZIP archive README.md.

Note: The project source is attached BUT this project is not maintained anymore.

Thanks.

Has been a good learning project, with challenges, to get on with ABMaterial:
  • Designing the class structure enabling data collection (with proper error handling), adding additional device sources (i.e. started with TinkerForge but planned to include Arduino or ESP - B4R).
  • Finding a (simple) charting framework. Looked at chartist, frappe, googlecharts ... but found to complex to use esp. displaying real-time data ... ended up with Chart.js (good examples and documentation).
  • Develop Custom Component for Chart JS to display line charts. Enhance the JustGage Custom Component properties. For both Custom Components a single property map is used.
  • Develop getter for the TinkerForge devices using Inline Java.
  • Handle settings via dedicated settings page.
  • Got a few things on the todo list - but for later as starting a new Lego BLE project.
A project like this, is a good Proof of Concept for the power of B4J (B4X) with the ABMaterial Framework!

No - but have updated post #1 with the source.
Be aware that this project is rather old and not maintained nor supported anymore. Not sure if still working with latest ABMaterial version and/or js addons.
