Installation Guide

1. Install docker-compose
   1. Setup passwordless ssh to the pi
   2. Install docker on the pi and add the pi user to the docker group

      [user@devmachine]$ DOCKER_HOST="ssh://pi@hostname" docker version

   4. Install docker-compose to your local machine (docker daemon not needed)
   5. Create a /var/local/groundstation directory on the pi

      [pi@raspberry]$ sudo mkdir -p /var/local/groundstation
      [pi@raspberry]$ sudo chown pi:pi /var/local/groundstation

2. Running on PC (no XBee needed)
   1. WIP
3. Run the code with docker-compose

   [user@devmachine]$ cd groundstation
   [user@devmachine]$ DOCKER_HOST="ssh://pi@hostname" docker-compose up --build

Subsystems

This repo is split into 2 subsystems, based on where the contained software will run.

• Rocket: Will run on an SBC in the rocket
• Groundstation: Will run in docker containers, most likely on a laptop or SBC. Currently also connected to the XBee receiver.
