 1 | # Connecting-Raspberry-Pi-with-Firebase-Database-Using-Python
 2 | The following project was developed to collect the humidity and the temperature using the DHT22 sensor and Raspberry Pi v3 and store these data on the Firebase database.
 3 | ## The following instructions should work with any types of projects, since the basic idea has pretty much the same logic.
 4 | ### My project setup:
 5 | 1.	Raspberry Pi v3 model B, running Raspbian 4.9.35-v7.
 6 | 2.	DHT22 sensor with 3 pins: GND, 5V and Data.
 7 | #### First, you must configure your Raspberry Pi with the following:
 8 | 
 9 | 1.	sudo apt-get update
10 | 2.	sudo apt-get install python-dev
11 | 3.	wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
12 | 4.	sudo python get-pip OR sudo apt-get install python-pip (new Raspian versions)
13 | 5.	sudo pip install pyrebase 
14 | #### Note that you may need to update your pyasn modules (pip install --upgrade pyasn1-modules) ####
15 | 6. I also had to download some files for the DHT22 sensor from github: https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Python_DHT
16 | 
17 | ##### If you are done with the previous steps, you are now ready to start writing the python script. Take a look at the following link for the pyrebase: https://github.com/thisbejim/Pyrebase.
18 | 
19 | ```
20 | # This code should be used with every script that you will be using to connect to the Firebase database.
21 | import pyrebase
22 | from firebase import firebase
23 | config = {
24 |   # You can get all these info from the firebase website. It's associated with your account.
25 |   "apiKey": "apiKey",
26 |   "authDomain": "projectId.firebaseapp.com",
27 |   "databaseURL": "https://databaseName.firebaseio.com",
28 |   "storageBucket": "projectId.appspot.com"
29 | }
30 | 
31 | firebase = pyrebase.initialize_app(config)
32 | .
33 | .
34 | .
35 | .
36 | ```
37 |  ##### Look at the Pyrebase https://github.com/thisbejim/Pyrebase to look at the functions and how to use them.
