RMOB-export application serves a a substitute for Colorgramme software for OS Linux. Colorgramme is only available for Windows and is very unstable. RMOB-export generates Rmob graphs (pictures) and rmob.txt files, which it immediately uploads to www.rmob.org.
In the Bolidozor network, the RMOB-export is automatically connected directly to the data storage place - so the output data files for RMOB are generated directly from it.
RMOB graphs can be generated either locally on your own computer (you have to install rmob-export by yourself according to a procedure described below) or using a data storage place of Bolidozor (it is easier and preferred option). For automatic generation of graphs from upload files, you have to place a rmob.cfg
with a following content into station's folder.
[RmobConfig] stationname = ZVPP country = Czech republic city = Ceske Budejovice latitudens = N latitudedeg = 048.9869761 longtitudeew = E longtitudedeg = 014.4675321 email = roman-dvorak@email.cz computer = Ion PC antenna = 1/4GP preamp = LNA01A www.mlab.cz reciver = RMDS01B www.mlab.cz frequency = 140 050 000 Hz
The file has to be so far uploaded to the server manually via scp. Then you data will be used for graphs generation by our servers for RMOB network and uploaded on their server.
For cases you have to run the rmob-export software directly on your station. RMOB-export can be downloaded from GitHub.
sudo apt-get install git g++ libmagick++ libmagick++5 libmagick++-dev libmysqlclient-dev

Unpack or download from Github
git clone https://github.com/bolidozor/rmob-export
Compile (using Makefilu)
cd rmob-export/ make
After setup (described below), run Run.py periodically, e.g. using crone To set up the crone, use:
crontab -e
and add the following line (with your own path to Run.py file) to the end of the file:
*/15 * * * * cd /home/roman/rmob-export/; python Run.py
Setting up this application is done using a Configure.py wizard, run in the rmob-export folder.
python Configure.py
The wizard will ask you several questions, your answers are confirmed by pressing enter. If you do not want to change the folder, you can skip it by pressing enter.
In order to verify the setup, run the rmob-export:
python Run.py
