Web UI for MSP430
=================

![alt tag](http://s18.postimg.org/wtonb66xl/img.png)
The web interface is created using Node.js. You will need "serialport" and "socket.io" modules to make this work. You also need to upload the launchpad code to a MSP430FR5739 launchpad (a.k.a fraunchpad)

Procedure: (on ubuntu)

1. Install node.js: 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;sudo apt-get install python-software-properties 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;sudo add-apt-repository ppa:chris-lea/node.js 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;sudo apt-get update 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;sudo apt-get install nodejs

2. Install npm (node package manager): 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;sudo apt-get install npm

3. Install the aforementioned modules (first "cd" to you project directory) 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;npm install serialport 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;npm install socket.io @0.9.14

These modules will be installed in "node_modules" folder in your current directory. Now, i will recommend installing "localtunnel" which will allow you to source your localhost to a webpage (intranet to internet).

4. Install localtunnel 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;sudo apt-get install ruby ruby1.8-dev rubygems1.8 libopenssl-ruby 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;sudo gem install localtunnel

Running the server:

The server will run on port 8080 (you can change this in the server.js file if required)

Run server &nbsp;:&nbsp;&nbsp; node index.html (first cd to your project directory) 
locatunnel &nbsp;&nbsp;:&nbsp;&nbsp; lt --port 8080

The localtunnel will generate a subdomain for you and you can use that to access your website anywhere.
