Goal: (semi)automatic updates when space opens and closes.
How
switch (spacenanny) -> mqtt (space/status_switch inverted logic False is open True is closed) -> hass (Jarvis) -> space api php script on nurdservices (https://github.com/NURDspace/space-api-generator)
Media
- IRC -> done
- Twitter -> http://twitter4j.org/en/index.html <- It would be sw33t to auto-spam twitter with activity in our space -> done
- Space API JSON: -> done -> https://space.nurdspace.nl/spaceapi/status.json
- https://github.com/NURDspace/space-api-generator on nurdservices
- Wiki -> shows status on frontpage
'Wall': have the start page of our site display all sorts of live info and put the wiki behind a link.See above, we use a widget on the wiki to show this stuff- Facebook: has been linked to the Twitter feed (yech)
Trigger
- Giant switch next to the door
Stuff dependent on space status
- See Jarvis

Log
10 april 2012
Since we have internet, we can now have updates! First step is the iBook G4 that runs a small Java IRC bot that can be controlled from the console by typing 'o' or 'c' (for 'open' and 'close'). It then updates the space status in the #nurds topic. Next step is a GUI (Swing).
12 april 2012
An LDR has been connected to the half-broken Arduino and the iBook has been freed of its duties. buZz installed Java on the Dockstar and the software runs there now. The Arduino has been connected and everything works. We also proved that the bot can send DMX commands, currently fading in the only lamp connected as the space opens and fading it out as it closes.
18 april 2012
DS18B20 has been connected! You can now query the lights status, temperature or a summary using !lights, !temp and !status.
19 april 2012
DS18B20 no longer functioning :( stopped working when soldering everything to a board. LDR gives wrong readings. Unfortunately, we can't seem to find out what's wrong...
23 april 2012
Faulty soldering of the 100 kOhm pull-down resistor for the LDR was at least partly to blame. LDR works correctly again and SpaceBot has been restarted. DS18B20 has been removed for now.
25 april 2012
Everything has been resoldered and a spare DS18B20 is used now. Everything seems to work again.
29 april 2012
Complete redesign of sources, which makes it easier to integrate new media. Twitter updater added. Space API JSON added.
30 april 2012
Added temperature to the Space API JSON.
october 2012
Status is now controlled by the locks.
august 2013
Everything will have to be redone now that we've moved to a new location.
october 2017
current status ; switch -> spacenanny -> Vinculum -> status -> nfsmount naar NURDServices -> json file -> website -> Nurdbot
Sep 2020
Remove the status vm and made everything rotate around hass switched to https://github.com/NURDspace/space-api-generator running on nurdservices
