A database backend for the Open Glider Network. The ogn-python module saves all received beacons into a database with SQLAlchemy. It connects to the OGN aprs servers with python-ogn-client. For simple tests a sqlite-backend is sufficient, but some tasks (e.g. logbook generation) require a proper database backend like postgresql.

Examples

1. Checkout the repository

   git clone https://github.com/glidernet/ogn-python.git
   

2. Install python requirements

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

3. Install redis for asynchronous tasks (like takeoff/landing-detection)

   apt-get install redis-server
   

4. Create database

   ./manage.py db.init
   

To schedule tasks like takeoff/landing-detection (logbook.compute), Celery with Redis is used. The following scripts run in the foreground and should be deamonized (eg. use supervisord).

• Start the aprs client

  ./manage.py gateway.run
  

• Start a task server (make sure redis is up and running)

  celery -A ogn.collect worker -l info
  

• Start the task scheduler (make sure a task server is up and running)

  celery -A ogn.collect beat -l info
  

To load a custom configuration, create a file myconfig.py (see config/default.py) and set the environment variable OGN_CONFIG_MODULE accordingly.

touch myconfig.py
export OGN_CONFIG_MODULE="myconfig"
./manage.py gateway.run

usage: manage.py [<namespace>.]<command> [<args>]

positional arguments:
  command     the command to run

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit

available commands:

  [db]
    drop                   Drop all tables.
    import_ddb             Import registered devices from the DDB.
    import_file            Import registered devices from a local file.
    init                   Initialize the database.
    upgrade                Upgrade database to the latest version.

  [gateway]
    run                    Run the aprs client.

  [logbook]
    compute                Compute takeoffs and landings.
    show                   Show a logbook for <airport_name> located at given position.

  [show.devices]
    stats                  Show some stats on registered devices.

  [show.receiver]
    hardware_stats         Show some statistics of receiver hardware.
    list_all               Show a list of all receivers.
    software_stats         Show some statistics of receiver software.

Only the command logbook.compute requires a running task server (celery) at the moment.

• ogn.collect.database.import_ddb - Import registered devices from the ddb
• ogn.collect.database.import_file - Import registered devices from a local file
• ogn.collect.heatmap.update_beacon_receiver_distance_all - Calculate the distance between aircraft and receiver for the last aircraft beacons
• ogn.collect.receiver.update_receivers - Populate/update receiver table (requires postgresql-backend)
• ogn.collect.logbook.compute_takeoff_and_landing - Generate TakeoffLanding table (requires postgresql-backend)

If the task server is up and running, tasks could be started manually.

python3
>>>from ogn.collect.database import import_ddb
>>>import_ddb.delay()
