Local Dev

Note this is only really tested on mac/linux (including WSL).

1. You will need automake and libtool and this repository
2. Run make devenv
3. Activate the virtualenv with . devenv/bin/activate
4. Try running in simulation mode python traffic.py -f
5. If you feel fancy try running a secondary light in simulation mode python traffic.py -f -m localhost

Install on a pi

These instructions should work on any recentish raspian

1. Make sure you can SSH into the pi
2. Activate the virtualenv with . devenv/bin/activate
3. Install deps with fabric with fab -H 1.2.3.4 -u pi --initial-password-prompt setup or some variant
4. "Deploy" the traffic lights with fab -H 1.2.3.4 -u pi --initial-password-prompt deploy - note the initscript is disabled for now
