For a headless install:

1. Download and flash the Raspbian Buster OS on an SD card.
2. Add a file titled ssh to the boot partition.
3. Insert the SD Card into the Pi and connect the Pi to the local area network and power.
4. In a seperate computer's terminal run a command to connect to the pi.

$ ssh pi@raspberrypi

5. Login to the pi with the password raspberry
6. Continue from step 3 in the non-headless install.

Install for Docker for ARM Devices

Pre-built images coming soon to Docker Hub!

Build the Docker Image

Use the Dockerfiles in the repo to build images yourself. Use the images to spin up containers in the Pi with EVE WebUI and all the programs built-in.

On ARM Devices

1. Install Docker on the Raspberry Pi.
2. Install git on the Raspberry Pi.

$ sudo apt install -y git

2. Clone the repository to the home directory.

$ sudo git clone https://github.com/vishhvaan/eve-pi.git /eve

3. Move to the correct directory.

$ cd /eve

4. Run the Docker build command.

$ docker build -t eve:pi .

5. Create a container.

$ docker create --name = eve1 \
    -p 80:80 \
    -p 8050:8050 \
    -e PUID=1000 \
    -e PGID=1000 \
    -v /eve/data:/data \
    eve:pi

6. Start the container.

$ docker start eve1

On UNIX-based x86/x64 Devices

Emulate the ARM environment with QEMU. Build images with the Dockerfile.arm32v7.

Shout Outs

The EVE uses a number of open source projects to work properly:

• script-server - Script server to run programs on the Pi
• slack-api - Uses the Slack API for Python for experiment monitoring
• plotly - Uses Dash for real-time plotting
• KiCAD - For Circuit Schematics and PCB Designs
• Docker - For creating self-contained application platforms

New Features

• Configurable save locations (USB or Network)
• Combined graphs of culture units
