CLASSIC INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS

Prerequisite PHP Packages

• php7-json

Recommend cloning to and running this this from your /opt/ directory.

Create a mysql database and give it a username and password.

create database nest_stats;
grant all privileges on nest_stats.* to nest_stats@localhost identified by 'some-password';

Export the tables from dbsetup.sql to the mysql database.

mysql -unest_stats -p nest_stats < dbsetup.sql

Set up vhost with documentroot pointing to ./web/ directory

Example: /opt/nest-bootstrap/web/

Copy nest.conf.php_EXAMPLE to nest.conf.php in the includes directory.

cp ./includes/nest.conf.php_EXAMPLE ./includes/nest.conf.php

Edit nest.conf and follow install prompts.

Configure the crontab to collect nest data and do scheduled tasks: Modify the path below to reflect your install:

*/5 * * * * /bin/rm -f /tmp/nest_php_* ; /usr/bin/php /opt/nest-bootstrap/includes/scripts/collect-nest-data.php > /dev/null

You may also update the frequency of data collection by modifing the crontab as so. 5 minutes works out pretty well and keeps from flooding the Nest API with too many requests.

Create an account once you can access the tool and configure your nest login information in settings.
