Rural Pipe

A Raspberry Pi-based client/server system to unify the bandwidth of multiple available networks in order to provide a single high(er) bandwidth network access in rural locations.

BUILD

These installation and build instructions assume a development machine (DEV), separate from the Raspberry Pi (RPI), running Ubuntu 20.04.

  1. (On DEV): Install the build essentials package: sudo apt install build-essential git
  2. (On DEV): Install the ARM cross-compiler and debugger: sudo apt install gcc-8-arm-linux-gnueabihf g++-8-arm-linux-gnueabihf gdb-multiarch (it is important to install version 8 of the cross-compiler if using Raspbian Buster, because it lacks the newer glibc library)
  3. (On DEV): Install SCons: python3 -m pip install SCons
  4. (On RPI - Optional): Optionally install the GDB server on the Raspberry Pi to be able to remotely debug from the development PC: sudo apt install gdbserver
  5. Clone this repository: git clone [email protected]:kaloianm/rural-pipe.git
  6. Build the Boost binaries for both ARM (Raspberry Pi) and PC architectures: scons --client_arch=pi --server_arch=pc build/native/pi/boost build/native/pc/boost
  7. Run scons --client_arch=pi --server_arch=pc

INSTALLATION

  1. Follow these instructions in order to configure the Raspberry Pi as a Wifi router (so it manages its own internal network)
  2. TODO: Instructions to start the client/server

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Implemented on Mac, using Microsoft Visual Studio Code and Ubuntu 20.04 running under Parallels Desktop for Mac.
