raspibian.HOWTO

How to turn a raspberry pi into your little weather server.
I run the rtl_433 on it, as well as use my raspberry pi's sense hat for internal temperature monitoring.

First, get the latest version of raspibian, and install it on your pi.
Second, either use the "pi" account, or create your own.  if you create your own, insure the user is at LEAST a member of the plugdev group.

Once you get the raspberry pi set up on your network (outside the scope of this document) you'll need to do the following to get it ready:

First, install packages:
apt-get install influxdb-client rtl-sdr git libtool libusb-1.0-0-dev librtlsdr-dev rtl-sdr build-essential autoconf cmake pkg-config 

if you have a sense-hat:
apt-get install sense-hat

git clone https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433
(Follow instructions in https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433/blob/master/docs/BUILDING.md )

git clone https://github.com/osmocom/rtl-sdr.git  (for one file.  rtl-sdr.rules.  Place it in your /etc/udev/rules.d folder)
