ePaper meetingroom display server

This repository contains the source code of the server that connects to the NOI meeting rooms calendar, takes the meeting information (e.g. meeting name, organizer name, start time, end time, etc.) and send it to the ePaper display installed in the meetingrooms. The server manages also the booking funtionality that allows the user to book the room, if available, by using the ePaper touch display installed in the meeting room.

Build

docker build . -t noi-door-signage

Startup

First of all create a .env file somewhere wit all needed env variables, which are:

• ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Development
• ASPNETCORE_URLS=http://+:5010
• LOG_PATH=xxx
• LOG_LEVEL=Debug
• AZURE_TENANT_ID=xxx
• AZURE_CLIENT_ID=xxx
• AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET=xxx
• HANGFIRE_MANAGEMENT_PASSWORD = xxx

Then start your container:
docker run --env-file <path to the .env> -e TZ=Europe/Rome -p 5010:5010 -t noi-door-signage

In my personal NGinx configuration, I use this:

server {
   server_name noi-door-signage.codethecat.dev;

         location / {
                        proxy_pass http://localhost:5010;
                        proxy_http_version 1.1;
                        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
                        proxy_set_header Connection 'Upgrade';
                        proxy_set_header Host $host;
                        proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
        }

Room association

You define new rooms and associate to one or more IoT devices, by changing the section Rooms in the appsettings.Development.json, e.g.

 "Rooms": [
    {
      "Name": "A1.1.33b",
      "Location": "1st floor",
      "Email": "meetingroom13@noi.bz.it",
      "AssociatedLabelMACs": [
        "B0:B2:1C:60:BD:E0",
        "E8:9F:6D:09:B4:E8",
        "94:B9:7E:8B:67:CC"
      ]
    }
  ]
