I've setup 2 Phonieboxes with the Mupiboxhat. After everithing worked fine I thought it would be helpfull to know the status of the Battery . The Mupibox has an Statuspage for the Battery . I asked splitti from the Mupibox project if can give me a hint where to start.
He pointed me to this :
https://github.com/splitti/MuPiBox/tree/main/scripts/mupihat
I've installed the python scripts and play around with them.
As I'm not so familiar with electronics I described my Idea to Chatgpt, here is the result.
Hardware setup ;
Raspberry pi 4 ( Bullseye)
Battery ENERpower 2S2P 10.000mAh
Mupihat v. 2 and v 3
From the Mupibox git I use
mupihat_bq25792.py
mupihat.py
I slidely change the 2 files because they need a json config file to be felxible for several batteries.
I only have one ;-)
the output of mupihat.py is a logfile in the temp folder of the pi.
I developed a pythonsript to analyze the log and privide a webpage with the result .
For the webpage I use flask because I don't whant to chnage to much of the original Phonie box software.
The script also create a csv file .
I placed the scripts here /home/pi/MupiHatT/scripts
The csv file will created here /home/pi/MupiHatT/log
the service files has to be placed here /etc/systemd/system
To reach the page from the Phoniebox webside I add a new topic in the navigation. I is done by adding one line to the file
/home/pi/RPi-Jukebox-RFID/htdocs/inc.navigation.php (search in my file for Akku Stat to find the new line)
Result page ;
I collect all stuff in the akkustat.zip also my 2 service files .
Akkustat.zip
I hope I did not miss somethig.
!!!!!! This is work in progress and only a template for others, so be carefull .
