LightMyPi Android App - Control GPIO without SSH and WebioPi wirelessly

[juniorhero]

I want to share the project I was working on an android app to control all GPIO pins of Rapsberry Pi wirelessly from Android Phone without using SSH nor WebioPi nor port forwarding

Download from Google Play Store
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lightmypi


The app communicates with your Raspberry without using SSH nor WebIoPi

You need to install a web server, PHP handler and wiringPi and switch.php file on your raspberry to get this app working.

I have given a detailed guide on github along with switch.php file


github.com/juniorhero/raspberrypi2
Read more on Github

If you install Weaved on HTTP port 80, then you can access the GPIO pins from anywhere in the world using LightMyPi app


I am sure you will like this app, please try it and let me know if you face any difficulties :fingers-crossed:

Have you done more development on this?

Could you share Android App source code so we can hack as in our DIY project. Please.

I've followed the directions on github, however when I run the weaved-nixinstaller_1.2.13.bin I choose option 2 and it sets up port 80 OK but then it asks for my Weave email address and password. I gave it my email and invented a password, but then it says:

You are missing a valid session token and must be logged back in.

I also installed the Android app lightmypi, however there is no place to enter an email and password, so it's very confusing how the Android app is supposed to connect to my pi. Probably the issue is with the weaved-nixinstaller not finishing correctly.

I did some Google search and discover that I have to first create a Weaved account online, however they are not accepting new accounts, rather they direct me to setup an account at www dot remot3 dot it. What a run around.

Any help is appreciated, because I am so close to testing this all out.
