PiSugar Wechat MiniApp

English | 简体中文

A BLE service to configure wifi over bluetooth for a Raspberry Pi. You can:

  • get wifi name, ip address, pi model
  • config wifi
  • get other custom info, e.g. CPU tempreture, CPU load, or whatever you can get by shell
  • remote control the pi to execute shell script and get response, such as shutdown, reboot

Tested on Raspberry Pi 3B/3B+/zero w (models with bluetooth) with Raspbian.

To access client-side app, please use Wechat app to scan the QR-code above. Source code of client-side is in folder /sugar-wifi-miniapp.

If you don't have wechat, you can use web-bluetooth to connect to your pi. Make sure your device and broswer support web-bluetooth api, visit https://www.pisugar.com/sugar-wifi-conf to connect. (Tested on MacOS and Android with Chrome, iOS WebBLE browser) Source code of web-bluetooth client is in folder /web-bluetooth-client.

Install

curl https://cdn.pisugar.com/PiSugar-wificonfig/script/install.sh | sudo bash

# the script will add sugar-wifi-conf to /etc/rc.local so that it can run on startup

Optional Parameters

# edit /etc/rc.local to append parameters to execute path 
# param 1: key 
# param 2: path to custom config file
# example: 
sudo bash /opt/sugar-wifi-config/run.sh pisugar /opt/sugar-wifi-config/build/custom_config.json&

Custom configuration

By editing the custom config file, you can let the pi broadcast custom data, recieve and execute custom shell scripts. Note: please ensure that the config file is accessable for the program.
