Send GPS position to server
===========================

[⬅️ Go back to main README](../README.md)

> ℹ️ **Info**: This script can not be used on its own but requires the base
> installation. See [main README](../README.md) for details.

Description
-----------

This script is supposed to run periodically from scheduler and send GPS
position data to a server for tracking.

A hardware GPS antenna is required.

Requirements and installation
-----------------------------

Just install the script:

    $ScriptInstallUpdate gps-track;

... and create a scheduler:

    /system/scheduler/add interval=1m name=gps-track on-event="/system/script/run gps-track;" start-time=startup;

Configuration
-------------

The configuration goes to `global-config-overlay`, the only parameter is:

* `GpsTrackUrl`: the url to send json data to

> ℹ️ **Info**: Copy relevant configuration from
> [`global-config`](../global-config.rsc) (the one without `-overlay`) to
> your local `global-config-overlay` and modify it to your specific needs.

The configured coordinate format (see `/system/gps`) defines the format
sent to the server.
