The Problem |
What they don't say - or don't say loud enough - is that to do so, your web server needs to be visible to (and from) the outside world.
Otherwise, you cannot access it outside of your home or ad-hoc network.
What those articles present is a nice way to:
- Know what the conditions are on the Raspberry PI
- Ask remotely to the Raspberry PI to take some action
- For example
-
You are at work, the Raspberry PI is at home.
Your Raspberry PI has a temperature sensor connected to it, and it is also connected to some heater switch.- When the temperature in the home drops below a given threshold, it sends you a message (through whatever channel, WebSocket or so)
- On reception of the message, you - wherever you are - decide to ask the Raspberry PI to turn the heater on
It kind of kills the story...
A Solution |
This will not implement real-time messaging - like WebSocket - but this will allow a form of communication, only relying on email service - like Yahoo! or Google. Those providers offer free email accounts, which is all you would need.
Required Components |
On the server side (ie the Raspberry PI, at home) you will need: The json parser is used to parse the content of the email messages. We choosed this technology in this example; others can be used as well, like XML, plain text messages, etc. Your call.
The Java code |
- email.properties
-
All properties concerning the emails accounts are externalized in this properties file.
Lines 1 to 5 concern the origins, and the destinations of the emails going back and forth, as well as the subjects used for the emails (events, acknowledgements, and requests).
Notice the URL at the top of the file (line 7), it could help you to find the servers you are interested in.

This is the utility class used to receive emails. Its behavior heavily depends on the values

email.properties.
Do check out the method namedsetProps()(line 119). It might need to be tweaked to fit your email environment.

Same as the previous, but for outgoing emails. Notice that the two can be different.
You might very well send emails using Yahoo! and receive others using Google.
This way, the Raspberry PI and you would have your own email addresses.

Wiring |
Attention!:
GPIO pin 1 is the pin #12
GPIO pin 4 is the pin #16
GPIO pin 2 is the pin #13
The two leds need a 220 Ohms resistor inline between their anode (+) and the GPIO pin they're connected on.
Their cathode (-) is connected on the Ground (pin #6)
Demonstration |
An ethernet cable would have done the same job.
Also notice that there is no keyboard, mouse, nor screen connected to the device.
We used
ssh to connect to a Linux session, from which we started the Java program, in background.
The Raspberry PI, connected to a breadboard.
Prompt> sudo ./run -send:google -receive:google [&]
Hint: there is an help option.
Prompt> ./run -help
Usage:
java pi4j.email.PIControllerMain -verbose -send:google -receive:yahoo -help
Prompt>
The run script looks like this:
#!/bin/bash
CP=./classes
CP=$CP:/home/pi/pi4j/pi4j-distribution/target/distro-contents/lib/pi4j-core.jar
CP=$CP:./lib/javax.mail_1.1.0.0_1-4-4.jar
CP=$CP:./lib/json.jar
#
java -classpath $CP pi4j.email.LedControllerMain $*
Notice the different components on the breadboard:
- A green led
- A yellow led
- A push button
Event on the Raspberry PI side. Button pushed.
Two emails have been sent:
from : olivier.lediouris@gmail.com
subject: PI Event
content: { pin: '"GPIO 2" <GPIO 2>', state:'HIGH' }
from : olivier.lediouris@gmail.com
subject: PI Event
content: { pin: '"GPIO 2" <GPIO 2>', state:'LOW' }
Now, you send the following email (in plain text), from your laptop, desktop, smart phone, tablet, what not:
to : olivier.lediouris@gmail.com
subject: PI Request
content: { operation: "turn-green-on" }
Green led is on.
And you receive an acknowledgement, by email:
from : olivier.lediouris@gmail.com
subject: PI Robot Ack
content: Your request [{operation:"turn-green-on"}] is being taken care of.
Now you send the following email:
to : olivier.lediouris@gmail.com
subject: PI Request
content: { operation: "turn-yellow-on" }
Yellow led is on.
And you receive an acknowledgement, by email:
from : olivier.lediouris@gmail.com
subject: PI Robot Ack
content: Your request [{operation:"turn-yellow-on"}] is being taken care of.
Now you send the following emails:
to : olivier.lediouris@gmail.com
subject: PI Request
content: { operation: "turn-yellow-off" }
to : olivier.lediouris@gmail.com
subject: PI Request
content: { operation: "turn-green-off" }
to : olivier.lediouris@gmail.com
subject: PI Request
content: { operation: "exit" }
Everything off, program terminated.
All leds are turned off, and the program exits.
Done! Back to base.
