Ninja Sphere - LED Controller

---

Introduction

This application is part of Ninja Sphere, controlling the LED display and gesture system on the Spheramid.

It communicates with HomeCloud (using the ThingModel) in order to find the devices to control, enabling panes as needed.

Requirements

• Go 1.3

Dependencies

https://github.com/ninjasphere/gestic-tools/

Building

Due to the native components of the golang gestic sdk, it is not possible to cross-compile. In order to build a binary that works correctly on the Spheramid, you will need to install golang on the target machine (or another linux/arm machine).

Running

go build && DEBUG=* ./sphere-go-led-controller

You will likely want to first stop the built-in binary using stop led-controller

Options

• --enableControl - Starts in control mode immediately.
• --led.forceAllPanes - Always enable all panes (including test ones)
• --mqtt.host=HOST - Override default mqtt host
• --mqtt.port=PORT - Override default mqtt host

Other options are available in /opt/ninjablocks/config/default (all options can be overridden by cli args or env vars).
