Alternate method is now the main method since it's much easier to setup and it's been tested in our college IoT lab. 2024-10-10 22:15:46 +05:30

Moved setup.sh to ada-setup.sh since it's not exactly working as intended on college RPi 3. 2024-10-10 22:09:32 +05:30

# DHT Humidity Sensing on Raspberry Pi
This project is a uses the AdaFruit libraries for sensing temperature using DHT11 sensor and a Raspberry Pi.
This project is a uses the basic DHT11 python library (main method) and AdaFruit libraries (alternative method) for sensing temperature using DHT11 sensor and a Raspberry Pi.

> This alternative method uses the `DHT11` python library for reading the sensor data.
> This is a pure Python library for reading DHT11 sensor on Raspberry Pi.
> This is the alternative method, using **AdaFruit library**. This method doesnt' seem to work on our college Raspberry Pi 3's. For easiler setup, checkout [## Main method](https://git.kska.io/notkshitij/DHT11#main-method)
1. Install prerequisites:
1. Install prerequisite packages:
```shell
sudo apt update &&\
sudo apt upgrade -y &&\
sudo apt install python3 python3-pip -y
sudo apt install git -y
```
2. Setup a virtual environment & install the library:
2. Clone the project:
```shell
mkdir /home/$(whoami)/temp-sensor
cd /home/$(whoami)/temp-sensor
python3 -m venv .
source bin/activate
pip install dht11 setuptools RPi.GPIO
git clone https://git.kska.io/notkshitij/DHT11.git
```
3. **Download** and **run** the code [alt-temp.py](https://git.kska.io/notkshitij/DHT11/src/branch/main/alt-temp.py)
> Alternatively, you can also [download the zip file](https://git.kska.io/notkshitij/DHT11/archive/main.zip)
3. Change the current working directory to the folder in which the project was cloned:
```shell
cd ./DHT11
```
4. Run the `ada-setup.sh` script:
```shell
source ada-setup.sh
```
> [!IMPORTANT]
> After running the code, and completing the execution, run `deactivate` in the terminal to exit the virtual environment.
