ajpierce / pi_alarm Goto Github PK

Hey,
The program works well until I try to set an alarm.
It said that I need specify user of filename to write, how do I fix this issue?
a BIG thanks!

Hey,
That's not an issue but I wanted to modify the code for my use.
I want to add a stream radio via mplayer, when the light is on it plays the stream, and when it off it pause it.
You have the time or the kindnass for helping me?

I'm trying to figure out how to add a physical switch, and the simplest way I can figure based on my current setup is --->>> if GPIO 12 = High (switch is on) run the same function as /off to switch

This isn't an issue with your code at all, just trying to blend Raspberry Pi w/ an Arduino, Neopixels, Mosfet driven White pixel strip, and an on off switch... and this last little snippet of code is where I'm stuck before I can actually start using this thing.

Any chance you could help me out?

Howdy,

Thanks for sharing your code!!!!!

While installing i found a small typo in step 4.

virtuanenv pi_alarm_env should of course be virtualenv pi_alarm_env

People how know how to code and are experienced will pick this up instantly. But newby's might be confused.
