Listen on amateur radio aprs-is network for messages and respond to them.
You must have an amateur radio callsign to use this software. Put your
callsign in the "USER" variable and update your aprs-is password in "PASS".
You must also have an imap email account available for polling.
Current messages this will respond to:
--------------------------------------
::
APRS messages:
l(ocation) [callsign] = descriptive current location of your radio
8 Miles E Auburn CA 1673' 39.92150,-120.93950 0.1h ago
w(eather) = weather forecast for your radio's current position
58F(58F/46F) Partly Cloudy. Tonight, Heavy Rain.
t(ime) = respond with the current time
f(ortune) = respond with a short fortune
-email_addr email text = send an email, say "mapme" to send a current position/map
-2 = resend the last 2 emails from your imap inbox to this radio
p(ing) = respond with Pong!/time
anything else = respond with usage
Meanwhile this code will monitor a single imap mailbox and forward email
to your BASECALLSIGN over the air. Only radios using the BASECALLSIGN are allowed
to send email, so consider this security risk before using this (or Amatuer radio in
general). Email is single user at this time.
There are additional parameters in the code (sorry), so be sure to set your
email server, and associated logins, passwords. search for "yourdomain",
"password". Search for "shortcuts" to setup email aliases as well.
Installation:

Development
-----------
Workflow
========
While working aprsd, The workflow is as follows
* Edit code, save file
* run tox -epep8
* run tox -efmt
* run tox -p
* git commit
Release
=======
To do release to pypi:
* Tag release with
git tag -v1.XX -m "New release"
* push release tag up
git push origin master --tags
* Build dist and wheel
python setup.py sdist bdist_wheel
* Verify build is valid for pypi (need twine installed )
pip install twine
twine check dist/*
* Once twine is happy, upload release to pypi
twine upload dist/*
Docker Container
----------------
Building
========
There are 2 versions of the container Dockerfile that can be used.
The main Dockerfile, which is for building the official release container
based off of the pip install version of aprsd and the Dockerfile-dev,
which is used for building a container based off of a git branch of
the repo.
Official Build
==============
docker build -t hemna6969/aprsd:latest .
Development Build
=================
docker build -t hemna6969/aprsd:latest -f Dockerfile-dev .
Running the container
=====================
There is a docker-compose.yml file that can be used to run your container.
There are 2 volumes defined that can be used to store your configuration
and the plugins directory: /config and /plugins
If you want to install plugins at container start time, then use the
environment var in docker-compose.yml specified as APRS_PLUGINS
Provide a csv list of pypi installable plugins. Then make sure the plugin
python file is in your /plugins volume and the plugin will be installed at
container startup. The plugin may have dependencies that are required.
The plugin file should be copied to /plugins for loading by aprsd
