Good evening,
I am working on a weather station (or something like that) using Golang.
-
Is there anything I should know to properly work with a Raspberry Pi and the grove sensors?
-
I copied the code from dexter’s repository to read the DHT sensor, but I get a “Unable to select a suitable driver for this board.”. It works just fine with the python code.
Here’s my repo: https://github.com/LuCavallin/yfirbord-grovepi
Please, heeeeeelp!
If you feel like I need to know more stuff, just tell me
Hi @LuCavallin,
I’ve looked over your repository and over your website and I really like your implementation.
That’s some great job you’ve done there.
And you also seem to be interested, more or less, in the same fields as me - (I read about your interests in the technologies you’re going to learn in the near future).
I do have a a couple of questions though:
-
Why did you go with Golang
?
-
What are your plans for the libraries you’re developing in the near future?
-
What are you trying to target with these libraries?
Again, regarding the DHT
sensor, I’m on it for testing it.
I’ll come back with a confirmation.
Thank you!
Hey! Thank you for the appreciation, I’ve actually just started working on the project, there’s still a lot to do there 
- I chose Golang because it’s gaining popularity, my company is starting to use it and overall it’s a very nice and fast multipurpose language
- Not sure, Yfirbord is made of three pieces (grovepi, apis and frontend) - it’s mainly to play around and learn. Once it’s done, I’ll be probably using it in my own house to monitor stuff - maybe it could have some commercial potential, not sure
- Didn’t get the question, but probably 2) explains it all
Thanks for the PR
