SIP Irrigation Control is a web-based irrigation control system that allows you to automate and monitor your garden irrigation system. In this tutorial, we will be installing SIP Irrigation Control on Void Linux.
Before we proceed, make sure that you have the following:
Open the terminal and run the following command to update the system:
sudo xbps-install -Suv
Once the system is updated, we need to install the following packages:
sudo xbps-install -y python3 python3-pip git
Next, we need to clone the SIP repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/Dan-in-CA/SIP.git
This command will clone the SIP repository to the current directory.
Change the directory to the SIP directory by running the following command:
cd SIP
Next, install the required Python modules using the following command:
sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Finally, start the SIP server using the following command:
python3 start.py
This will start the SIP server on port 8081. You can access the SIP web interface by opening your browser and entering the following address:
http://localhost:8081
In this tutorial, we have learned how to install SIP Irrigation Control on Void Linux. With SIP, you can automate and monitor your garden irrigation system from a web interface.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
