This project was submitted to the HackDartmouth III event held on September 24 - 25, 2016.

The goal of this project is to use a Raspberry Pi 3 board along with GrovePi sensors to create a Node.js server that has a hard-ware DEADMAN switch. If certain physical triggers are detected by the Raspberry Pi then the sever will delete all of the files on the server. Originally, this project was meant to interface with the document sharing API at IntraLinks but this project still serves as a proof of concept of a server with a physical DEADMAN switch attached.

This project was built with Raspberry Pi 3, GrovePi Board, GrovePi Sensors, Node.js, Python, and Swagger.io.

Node.js powers the server as well as the RESTful API (which is powered by Swagger.io)

Python powers the DEADMAN switch.

1. Run

node server.js

2. Run

(only once) git clone https://github.com/efeiefei/node-file-manager.git

cd node-file-manager

cd lib

npm install

node --harmony index.js -d /home/pi/DeadmanPi/files

3. Run

cd deadman-pi

swagger project start

4. Run

python deadman.py

http://localhost:8080 - Deadman Server Page (Node.js)

http://localhost:5000 - Node File Manager Page (Node.js)

http://localhost:10010 - RESTful API powered by Swagger.io

Everything currently runs on localhost.

Connect the GrovePi Piezo Vibration Sensor to AO on the GrovePi Board

Connect the GrovePi Light Sensor to A1 on the GrovePi Board

Connect the GrovePi Button to D3 on the GrovePi Board

Make sure deadman.py is running.

Vibrating the GrovePi Piezo Vibration Sensor will trigger a DEADMAN

Covering the GrovePi Light Sensor will trigger a DEADMAN

Holding the GrovePi Button will trigger a RESET (button must be pressed for at least 0.5 seconds)

Run swagger project edit inside deadman-pi/
