IntelliCenter Home Automation Integration and Control

[MyAZPool]

Kato or Guinness,

OK, I think I can run using WiFi and I'm feeling pretty good about all this. Then I try to do something simple like run the software. I did some research on this and discovered the "sudo apt-get install" command but I can't seem to find the package name. Sorry to have to keep asking very basic stuff, I feel like it's 2 steps forward 3 back. Maybe I need to update "apt-get" first?

Chris,
I'm not sure this will help you or not. I just happen to be knee-deep doing some stuff in this area at the moment.
But if it's anything like the initial procedures for the NJS poolController, I think it would go something like this.

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install build-essential
bash <(curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/node-red/linux-installers/master/deb/update-nodejs-and-nodered)
## Answer yes to all the questions

From your home directory type
git clone ://mguiness/intelliCenterGateway.
NOTE: Put your https before the : of course
(this was the only way I knew how to do it to keep it from turning into a link here lol...)

In the IntelliCenterGateway sub directory type
npm i
npm start&

That git clone command is just a guess on my part. Maybe wait for one of the experts would be a better idea "coz I still be a noob"

I can't wait for the thread with detailed Pi instructions. Might have to order the Pi 4 and move my HyperPi/Retro Pi over from my 3B and designate the older unit to the pool automation.
