Speak the current time and date in the Slovak language on a button press event
|
|
|
|
Hardware
|
|
--------
|
|
- [Raspberry Pi Zero W](https://hackerboards.com/board/raspberry-pi-foundation-raspberry-pi-zero-w-wireless)
|
|
|
|
- A button connected to the Raspberry pi GPIO as shown in the schema to debounce noisy contacts
|
|
|
|
|
|
- USB speaker with a microphone e.g. [Jabra Speak 410](https://www.jabra.com/_/media/Jabra_VXi_Product-Documentation/Jabra-SPEAK-410-Series/technical-specifications/RevB/Jabra-Speak-410-Techsheet-A4-290420-Web.pdf)
|
|
- microSD card 8GB
|
|
|
|
- USB type-A to microUSB cable
|
|
|
|
- USB power supply 5V 500mA
|
|
|
|
Operating system
|
|
----------------
|
|
Install [Raspberry Pi Imager](https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/raspberry-pi-imager-imaging-utility/) into your notebook. Launch it and choose `Raspberry Pi OS Lite` to write into the microSD card
|
|
|
|
Power on the `Raspberry Pi` and finish the installation process. Log into its console using either:
|
|
- wifi (from your notebook: `ssh pi@raspberrypi`)
|
|
- connected USB keyboard and HDMI monitor
|
|
- serial port using [USB to TTL Serial Cable](https://learn.adafruit.com/raspberry-pi-zero-creation/give-it-life)
|
|
|
|
Prerequisites
|
|
------------
|
|
Once you are logged into the `Raspberry pi` console update your system
|
|
> `sudo apt update`
|
|
`sudo apt upgrade`
|
|
|
|
Install `git`. It will be used to download the `kukuc-clock`
|
|
> `sudo apt install -y git`
|
|
|
|
How to install
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Clone the `kukuc-clock` source code into your home directory
|
|
> `cd`
|
|
`git clone https://gitea.virtonline.eu/2HoursProject/kukuc-clock.git --depth 1`
|
|
|
|
Go into the newly created directory
|
|
> `cd ~/kukuc-clock`
|
|
|
|
Configuration
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Check your Raspberry pi board pin layout and make sure your button matches with the GPIO pin `PIN = 27` from `kukuc-clock.py`
|
|
> `pinout`
|
|
|
|
Use `raspi-config` `"System Options -> Audio"` to generate the ALSA config file
|
|
> `sudo raspi-config`
|
|
|
|
Alternatively check your sound card
|
|
> `aplay -l`
|
|
|
|
Put your sound card number `"card 0"` or `"card 1"` into the ALSA config file
|
|
> `nano .asoundrc`
|
|
|
|
Install the ALSA config file
|
|
> `mv .asoundrc ~/`
|
|
|
|
Test it first with emulated GPIO. It will simulate button press and hold for 8 seconds
|
|
> `python3 kukuc-clock.py test`
|
|
|
|
Run it!
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Just run `python3 kukuc-clock.py` then press and hold the button for at least 5 seconds
|
|
> `python3 kukuc-clock.py`
|
|
|
|
Pres `Ctrl+c` to exit
|
|
|
|
Make it a service to automaticaly start and run in the backgroud
|
|
------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
If your `$HOME` directory is other then `/home/pi` then modify the systemd service file
|
|
> `sed -i "s#/home/pi#$HOME#g" kukuc-clock.py.service`
|
|
|
|
If your username and group is other then `pi` and `pi` then also run
|
|
> `sed -i "s#User=pi#User=$USER#" kukuc-clock.service`
|
|
`sed -i "s#Group=pi#Group=$(id -gn)#" kukuc-clock.service`
|
|
|
|
Install the systemd service files
|
|
> `sudo mv kukuc-clock.service /etc/systemd/system/`
|
|
|
|
Reload systemd manager configuration
|
|
> `systemctl daemon-reload`
|
|
|
|
Enable the `kukuc-clock` service at boot time and also run it
|
|
> `systemctl enable --now kukuc-clock`
|
|
|
|
If it does not work check logs
|
|
> `journalctl -f -u kukuc-clock`
|
|
|
|
Set volume for playback and recording
|
|
-------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Launch soundcard mixer
|
|
> `alsamixer`
|
|
|
|
Press F6 to select a soundcard. Find your USB sound device in the list e.g. `Jabra Speak 410 USB`. Press F4 and use up/down arrow keys to set recording volume and repeat also for the playback (F3). Make sure it is not muted. Press (m) to toggle mute. Press ESC to exit.
|
|
|
|
To preserve audio setting after the boot run
|
|
> `sudo alsactl store`
|
|
|
|
Run unit tests
|
|
--------------
|
|
> `cd test`
|
|
`python3 -m unittest test_slovak_datetime_formatter` |
