For easy development, first fork the homebotties/homebotties repo to your own account (eg my own bot, sco/scobot).

1. Clone repo and install dependencies

   $ git clone [email protected]:[USERNAME]/[BOT_REPO].git homebot $ cd homebot $ npm install

2. Start bot

Options:

$ npm start 

$ sudo PORT=80 node ./server.js

$ docker build -t <your username>/homebot .
$ docker run -p 80:3000 -d --restart unless-stopped <your username>/homebot

Run your bot app by opening https://homebot/ on your phone (when on the same wifi network)

• Edit app.html and save to reload to update your bot's app
• Check out the Examples/ directory
• Join the community on Github, Twitter, SO, etc

• You'll need any computer with an SD card reader stick, and a phone (to run your bot app)
• Bare Raspberry Pi setup
  • Use Raspberry Pi Imager app to burn latest RPiOS lite (32) image
  • On boot drive, touch ssh and create wpa_supplicant.conf to set up wifi
    • TODO: set up ssh ids here
  • Power on. Get IP with Fing app.
  • Set hostname to your bot name with raspi-config (in our examples, we'll name our bot homebot, but this can be whatever you want)

• Issue Tracker
