GPIOnastat

GPIOnastat is an open-source software tool designed to control and automate GPIO (General-Purpose Input/Output) pins on Raspberry Pi and other single-board computers. Developed primarily for home automation and IoT (Internet of Things) applications, it provides a user-friendly interface for managing digital and analog inputs/outputs via a web-based dashboard.

The software is built on Node.js and uses a modular architecture, allowing users to extend its functionality with custom scripts or plugins. GPIOnastat supports various hardware components, including relays, sensors, and actuators, making it versatile for projects such as lighting control, temperature monitoring, and security systems. It also integrates with popular home automation platforms like Home Assistant, Node-RED, and MQTT, enabling seamless connectivity with other smart devices.

One of its key features is the ability to create schedules, timers, and conditional logic for automated control. Users can define rules based on time, sensor inputs, or external triggers, such as weather conditions or motion detection. The web interface allows for real-time monitoring of GPIO states, logging, and remote access via a secure connection.

GPIOnastat is distributed under an open-source license, allowing for community contributions and customization. It is particularly useful for users who prefer a lightweight, self-hosted solution over proprietary alternatives. While primarily designed for Raspberry Pi, it can also be adapted for other Linux-based systems with appropriate hardware support. Documentation and community support are available through GitHub and forums, making it accessible for both beginners and advanced users.
