# CZI presence detector
Tool to detect the presence of pre-defined devices by their WiFi MAC addresses.
2023-08-13 22:12:47 +02:00
## How scanning works
Sets the wifi adapter into monitor mode, then listens to surrounding packets listing all detected devices into `wifi_map.yaml`. Resets the wifi adapter to normal mode for uploading the results, filters the results by the mac addresses in `identities.yaml` and sends all matched identities to the front-end webhook server in `website`. This server stores the presence information locally and displays it with `website/index.php` with a timestamp of the last update.
## What the website is capable of
Shows the last update of the `upload.py` routine. It also allows to add identities by their name and mac and to delete identities by their mac. The mac addresses are hashed server-side and then stored into the world-accessible `identities.json`.
## Set-up
Dependencies:
- Scanner: Python3, trackerjacker (pip3)
- Website: php
Configs to change:
- `scanner/scan.sh`:
- WiFi adapter name
2023-08-16 16:53:38 +02:00
- network restart routines (front-end)
- `scanner/upload.py`:
- URLs for webhook and identities
- webhook secret
- `public/update.php`:
- webhook secret
Put `scanner` onto the scanning device (e.g. Raspberry Pi) and put `scanner/scan.sh` into a cron job.
Put `website` onto a php-capable webserver and point your domain to it.
