Written in Go this program interfaces with an Inkbird bluetooth thermometer, specifically the ibbq-4x, though other Inkbird models may work. Readings are pushed to AWS IoT.
Create an AWS IoT thing with certificates and a policy. Download the thing certificate
and private key, placing them in the certs directory named certificate.pem.crt and
private.pem.key. You also need to edit src/mqtt.go and change brokerUri to your
correct endpoint.
In ./src/ run go install -v ./...
sudo LOGXI=main=INF ./go-bbq-monitor
The program can be run in docker if required:
docker build . -t go-bbq-monitor
sudo docker run -d --name bbq-monitor --net host --privileged go-bbq-monitor
The program will exit if the thermometer is disconnected or cannot be found.
To start on boot and restart on disconnect add the --restart=always option.
