Use buttons connected to a Rasberry Pi GPIO to trigger Hog 4 comment macros.

This readme assumes that you have:

  1. a working and updated Rasberry Pi,
  2. with ssh access already set up,
  3. and a static IP address on HogNet.

Beginner users will also want:

  • Internet access on HogNet during setup.

Installing

cd /home/pi
git clone https://git.company235.com/kevin/onsetswitch.git
cd onsetswitch

Configuring

Input

Connect one side of the button to ground, the other to a GPIO pin.

Configure the buttons:

nano buttons.cfg

Output

Configure the Hog4 OSC server:

nano server.cfg

Enabling on Boot

Link the onsetswitch service file to systemd:

sudo ln -s buttons.service /lib/systemd/system/buttons.service

Enable the service at startup:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable buttons.service

Reboot the Rasberry Pi:

sudo reboot
