If you are skilled in Python, Web Development (CSS/JS), or gnuradio we need your help! To find out how to help see each module below. You can also find us on our forum or on irc/matrix in #satnogs-dev

SatNOGS Client

Skills required: Python

The SatNOGS client is written in Python, targeting raspberry pi 3 as the reference architecture. It interfaces with the following applications:

rotctld (Rotator control, part of hamlib)
rigctld (Rig frequency control, part of hamlib)
gr-satnogs (custom SatNOGS gnuradio scripts)

Architecture documentation: https://docs.satnogs.org/en/stable/satnogs-client/doc/architecture.html

Code repository: https://gitlab.com/librespacefoundation/satnogs/satnogs-client

Dev setup guide: SatNOGS_Client_Development#satnogs-client

Note that development happens on the "0" branch, with periodic merges to master for release; PRs should be submitted against the "0" branch.

SatNOGS Client image / setup script

Skills required: Linux administration, .deb packaging, Ansible

We provide a custom raspbian image for Raspberry Pi 3 using pi-gen and a satnogs-setup script that configures the client via Ansible. In addition we package gr-satnogs as a .deb through GitLab CI. If you would like to help out check out our repositories below:

pi-gen repository: https://gitlab.com/librespacefoundation/satnogs/satnogs-pi-gen

gr-satnogs

Skills required: gnuradio companion, C/C++, SDR
