# BlueWeather

A (hopefully soon) fully featured  selft-hosted web interface and server-backend to store weather data (comparable to opensensemap.org)

# State of development

- interface and backend planned
- readonly dashboard is working

# Installation
1. Install the required packages
```
sudo apt install git apache2 mysql-server mysql-client php libapache2-mod-php php-mysql php-cli php-common -y
```
2. Prepare the working directory and download SafeMail
```
cd /var/www/html/

git clone https://git.itsblue.de/dorian/blueweather.git
```
3. Create the database
```
sudo mysql -u root

CREATE DATABASE blueweather;
```
4. now create the database user, if you change the username, password or database name, don't forget to change that data in the config.php file!

```
GRANT ALL ON blueweather.* TO 'blueweather'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'root';

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

exit;
```
5. Prepare database for usage (create Tables and Keys)
```
cd /var/www/html/blueweather/api

sudo mysql -u root blueweather < blueweather.sql
```
Your BlueWeather instance can now be reached under: <your_ip>/blueweather

### Request
- identity: identity of the api token (given by webinterface)
- signature: hash_hmac with SHA256 of 'data' string with an API-key as key
- data: JSON array[array[  
        sensorId,  
        measvalue,  
        timestamp  
    ]]
