Welcome to my RoomManager project

This is a small Raspberry device handler, running an all round CLIENT device, placed into a Room for an apartment. Its tasks - as of now - are as follows:

Note	This development is part of an all-around smart-home Project. Being an Architect, my goal is to creare a smart home Manager fully controlled by the user. One that doesn’t spy on you, does not collect your data, one that does not advertise you anything. And is free.

How do I get it set up?

go to the install folder and run the PackInst-roommanager.sh bash file. To do so, enter:

sudo bash PackInst-roommanager.sh

• Configuration: …​

• Dependencies are installed automatically or install everithing in the lib folder, by entering:

  pip3 install <packagename>

for each package found there. Most of them should be offline installable.

  pytest

  run

  Small projects of mine such as this one; can be run four ways:
