chollinger93 / raspberry-gardener

A collection of Python scripts to run a Raspberry Pi to monitor my vegetable patches. Sends data to a REST API written in golang.

raspi-gardener

raspi-gardener is a simple client-server module that allows a Raspberry Pi monitor my vegetable patches, as well as indoor plants.

Contains a client module, written in Python, that talks to i2c and spi sensors on Pi, as well as a server module, written in go, that provides a RESTful endpoint, can store data to a database, and send notifications via email.

Written for an article on my blog. Find part 1 here and part 2 here.
