paragliding-meshmap

Deployment

yarn install
yarn run docker:build
docker run -it -e DATABASE_URL=postgres://username:password@hostname:port/database-name paragliding-meshmap

Development

Here's how you set up a development environment for contributing to paragliding-meshmap. The first step is to run a postgres database. Keep this running in a terminal:

docker run --env=POSTGRES_USER=postgres --env=POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres --env=POSTGRES_DB=meshmap -p 5432:5432 --volume=pgdata:/var/lib/postgresql/data -ti postgres:alpine

Set up an environment for your yarn commands:

cp .env.sample .env.development.local

Update the following line in .env.development.local to connect to the database server you started above.

DATABASE_URL=postgres://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/meshmap

Now build the dependencies and run the backend and frontend together:

yarn install
yarn run build
yarn run start --mqtt-topics 'msh/#' --mqtt-broker-url=mqtt://mqtt.bircom.in --no-mqtt

Connect to http://localhost:5173 in your web browser, and the application should show up. In order to get actual data showing up in the map, you'll need to request credentials to access the MQTT (message queuing) server. Contact @ketan about this. Once and if you have them, run the app like this:

yarn run start --mqtt-topics 'msh/#' --mqtt-broker-url=mqtt://mqtt.bircom.in --mqtt-username xxx --mqtt-password yyy

Connect again in your web browser. Be patient as the packets take time to trickle in from devices. Watch your console logs too, as various packets of node and position data come in, they'll show up as INSERT database statements.

Debugging/Troubleshooting

You can debug/troubleshoot things by setting the DEBUG variable using the .env.development.local file (or setting the DEBUG variable directly). Logging is enabled via the debug library, and you may checkout advanced usage in the debug library documentation.

The following values are supported for debugging

Value Usage
typeorm:* Enables debugging of typeorm used for running DB queries. See this file for more fine grained logging options
meshmap:* Enable logging options for different features in this application. See this file for more fine grained logging options
mqtt:* Enable logging options for the mqttjs library.

Credits

  • meshtastic for building the great software that allows all of this to work.
  • Liam Cottle for the great work on the original map app, we are using the same codebase with lots of modifications.
