RaspberryPi cluster (audio distribution, home automation)

[Josh Adams]

So I've begun a trello board for this project as a starting point. It's here:

Trello board BOSS Cluster - https://trello.com/b/HcNm5esh/boss-cluster

It's late so I won't type much more tonight, but let's get organizing on this thread...

So just wanted to provide an update on this one.  Also if you've pinged me asking to get involved, please do so again.  I know daniel did but I couldn't find his email address, among other things.  Also life's hectic because we just moved.

So Robby came over on Saturday and we worked on icecast streaming a bit.  Got an icecast server streaming the audio monitor (everything that's coming out of the device).  Got another machine listening to it via mplayer.  So that pretty much concludes the unix-side project.  From here all we really have to do is get the elixir app starting the stream and starting/stopping the mplayer process, and we're done.  We got the elixir app learning its IP address and able to announce the url of the icecast stream.  Starting/stopping the processes, and building the android app, are basically all that's left.  In four more hours of dev I feel we can have a version of it working that doesn't involve the android app - i.e. we just send the messages around using an elixir console.

So that's that.

Yeah so is there a github to look at?

That just has the elixir code in it right now.  The bits we've done with icecast are documented in trello cards, and we'll end up with an sdcard image for raspberry pis that has icecast installed and configured that way.
