There comes an installation script with this reposity that does all the steps described below: install.sh
This script
compiles the driver, installs the binary and configuration files, and installs the PowerBlockling service.
To run the quick installation, you just need to call this one line from the Raspbian console
wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/petrockblog/PowerBlockling/master/install.sh | sudo bash
To uninstall the service you can simply call sudo ./uninstall.sh
