==Inventory of My RPis==

* Zero
* RPi 2B+
* RPi 3B+
:: Used in SmartiPi 2 "tablet" with 7" touchscreen

==RPi Accessories==

* [https://shop.omzlo.com/products/pivoyager-the-smart-ups-for-the-raspberry-pi PiVoyager] is a UPS for any model Raspberry Pi. As well as providing a connection to a Lithium ion battery, this device maintains a clock and calendar for the Pi. When the Pi is connected to external power, it will charge the battery as well as provide operating power to the Pi.

* [https://remote.it/rpi/ Remote.it], a VPI for RPi (and all other platforms). Free personal account available, or $2/mo/device for commercial account w/priority email support.

==Setting Up a Raspberry Pi==

* [https://read.amazon.com/?asin=B00CZ1C5TQ Getting Started with Raspberry Pi ebook]

===Connecting over the Local Area Network===

: ''Also see https://ngrok.io for an easier-to-use IP tunneling service''

====Issues====

: RealVPN server is pre-installed on the RPi, but I have not been able to get it to work since the window overfills the screen and is not scrollable. Instead I will try simply using SSH directly to the IP address.

:: '''Turn off NordVPN on the PC before trying to connect, since the IP reassignment makes it impossible to use on the LAN.''' (May be necessary, but is still not sufficient.)

: In Windows 10, toggle "Device Discovery" switch under "for Devlopers" in Settings > Update & Security window. Requires selecting "Developer Mode" first to enable the switch. This should make it possible to connect via USB and localhost from a different device. After rebooting, use the "Pair" button to display a pairing code to enter on the remote device.

: see [https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/debug-test-perf/device-portal this page] for info on Windows 10 Device Portal.

====SSH How-to====

: First see if the SSH server is installed and running on the RPi. See [https://www.ssh.com/ssh/sshd this page] for details.

: [https://linoxide.com/linux-how-to/how-use-ssh-commands-windows-10-command-prompt/ This page] has instructions for opening a cmd window on the PC and logging in to a remote server with SSH.

: [https://phoenixnap.com/kb/linux-ssh-commands Here is a page] with common SSH commands.

: The OpenSSH documentation for Windows is at [https://github.com/powershell/win32-openssh/wiki this page].

====SSH Server on Windows 10====

: See [https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/how-to-install-the-built-in-windows-10-openssh-server/ this page] for hints. It is a bit out of date, but has some interesting information.

====Using ngrok for SSH====

: See https://ngrok.com

# Connect RPi to local network
# Determine IP address
# Start ngrok TCP 22 server on Pi
## $ ./ngrok tcp 22
# Start VNC server on Pi
# SSH into Pi from remote client (Win10)
# Start VNCviewer app on desktop (Win10)

===Create a Network-wide Ad Blocker===

: https://lifehacker.com/create-a-network-wide-ad-blocker-with-a-raspberry-pi-1727295925
:: Includes some how-tos for several purposes

===LAMP Stack Installation===

: Follow instructions at https://knowledgeofthings.com/django-on-raspberry-pi/

# Install Apache 2
# Install MariaDB
# Install Python 3.x
# Install phpMyAdmin
# Install Django CMS

==RPi Projects==

===Home Web Server===

: See ~/Dropbox/RPi&Arduino/articles/Apache2_on_RPi.pdf

====[[Apache2 on RPi]]====

: A step-by-step procedure for installing and running Apache2 web server on Raspberry Pi

===Home Wiki Server===

: Attempting to run Mediawiki on a Pi Zero connected to my home router

# Set up SSH server on RPi Zero
## Use Raspbian Buster SD card
## Establish unique password
## Configure to allow SSH access (Install & run sshd)
# Connect to RPi via SSH from Windows command line (Windows+r cmd) with [https://ngrok.com Ngrok]
# Install Mediawiki on RPi: ssh [RPi-ip-address] sudo apt-get install mediawiki
## Follow procedure in ~/Dropbox/RPi&Arduino/articles/Mediawiki_on_RPi.pdf
## Configure wiki to be read/edit only by logged-in users in LocalSettings.php
# Connect RPi to home router
## Plug in directly to router USB port
### See if port supplies power to Pi Zero
## Discover IP address
## Configure wiki server & SSH server to use assigned IP address
## Test by connecting to RPi wiki from laptop
# Investigate setting up static IP to allow access via internet, or use [https://ngrok.com Ngrok] account

===RPi Connected to Solar Power Controller===

: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VxP38XlVEQ
:: This tutorial demonstrates how to use serial communication on a Raspberry Pi to connect to a solar charge controller and transmit the data using a python web server REST API to web enabled devices.
:: Video also includes lots of useful apps to look up

===Pi Zero Amazon Price Tracker===

: [https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/build-a-raspberry-pi-zero-w-amazon-price-tracker/ See this page] for instructions to script a price tracker for a specific product on Amazon.com

===Pi Zero 3D Printer Server===

: Jason posted [http://hcmakers.org/w/index.php?title=Raspberry_Pi_Zero_print_server these instructions] for making a wireless print server for his 3D Printer.
