Do you guys think/know if this would work on a Orange pi.

 

https://github.com/riptidewave93/RFLED-Server

 

It seems to be written in golang, I don't know how is it with the gpio's if stuff is written in golang. Well here its UART stuff actually but you get the picture..

Yeah looks quite feasible.

 

I might have to fiddle with the serial device name.  I'm not sure of the opi console is sharing the uart with the GPIO or not... worst case scenario you disable serial console and take over the device

func main() {
var wg sync.WaitGroup


// Set our UART vars
comport := flag.String("serial", "/dev/ttyAMA0", "Serial device to use")
comspeed := flag.Int("baud", 9600, "Serial baudrate")
debug := flag.Bool("debug", false, "Enable verbose debugging")

Thanks lanefu, you are a real help - also that wiringopi tutorial you made is awesome (its on my todo list to try it out )!

 

What about this project https://github.com/rszimm/sprinklers_pi, it has WiringPi inside not Rpi,Gpio, so it should work with WiringOPI out of the box right?

 

Thanks!

I took a glance at the project.. It certainly seems feasible.. you're way ahead of me now.   Good luck and please share your success!
