Setting up a Raspberry Pi as a dashboard server with Dashing

Setting up a Raspberry Pi as a dashboard server with Dashing

Why the heck did I do this?

I wanted to set up one of my Raspberry Pi's as a data dashboard, pushing sensor data to a web interface that's easy to digest. I decided to use Shopify's Dashing framework. Dashing is based on Sinatra, and is pretty lightweight.

Dashing does require Ruby 1.9.3 to run. In addition, it makes use of the execjs gem, which needs to have a working Javascript interpreter available. Originally, I tried to get therubyracer working, but decided to switch over to Node.js when I ran into roadblocks compiling V8.

One warning: The RPi is a very slow system compared with modern multi-core x86-style systems. It's pretty robust, but compiling all this complex software taxes the system quite a bit. Expect that it's going to take at least half a day to get everything going.

Deploy to `gh-pages` from a `dist` folder on the master branch. Useful for use with [yeoman](http://yeoman.io).

Deploying a subfolder to GitHub Pages

Sometimes you want to have a subdirectory on the master branch be the root directory of a repository’s gh-pages branch. This is useful for things like sites developed with Yeoman, or if you have a Jekyll site contained in the master branch alongside the rest of your code.

For the sake of this example, let’s pretend the subfolder containing your site is named dist.

Step 1

Remove the dist directory from the project’s .gitignore file (it’s ignored by default by Yeoman).

Web Workers and jQuery

Web workers and jQuery

Web workers are great; they provide a powerful way to run background threads on website.

I wanted to create a more convenient way to deal with them in a jQuery-esque way. This code allows you to create a web worker and returns a jQuery.Deferred extended with some of the web worker methods on the instance.

window.BlobBuilder = window.WebKitBlobBuilder || window.MozBlobBuilder;
