weatherdisplay

e-ink weather display / tide tracker using a raspberry pi

instructions

1. Replace placeholders at top of file with your own values.
2. I use a virtual python environment to run this -- you're on your own for figuring out dependencies.
3. I'm using systemd unit files to handle auto-restarting this script on failures (sometimes it gets bad data from the API endpoint that causes a crash) and also have found that having it restart every night seems to keep it most stable.
