BicycleInit

This repository contains the bicycleinit.sh script, which is used for managing and configuring a bicycledata box. The script performs the following tasks:

1. Update the script: Checks for updates to the repository and applies them.
2. Device registration: Registers the device with a server if it hasn't been registered before.
3. Configuration update: Retrieves and updates the configuration file (config.json) based on the device's registration information.

Prerequisites

Before using the script, ensure that the following dependencies are installed on your Raspberry Pi:

• Git: For fetching and pulling updates from the repository.
• jq: A lightweight command-line JSON processor for parsing JSON responses from the server.
• curl: For sending HTTP requests to the REST API.

You can install these dependencies using the following commands:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git jq curl

Usage

The bicycleinit.sh script accepts two optional arguments:

1. Branch name: The Git branch to check for updates. Defaults to 'main'.
2. Server REST API URL: The base URL for the server's REST API. Defaults to 'https://bicycledata.ochel.se:80'.

Running the Script

To run the script with default parameters, use:

./bicycleinit.sh

To specify a different branch or API URL, you can pass them as arguments:

./bicycleinit.sh [branch_name] [server_rest_api_url]

Example:

./bicycleinit.sh develop 127.0.0.1:5000

This command will check for updates on the develop branch and use the specified REST API URL.
