Support for GPSD?
Maybe you can explain what problem it solves.
Well I have a raspberry pi, I need to get a GPS module connected directly to the pi to talk with Traccar, only way I can see is serial or running GPSD locally to communicate over IP
127.0.0.1:port
Thanks
Your use case is far from the common one. I've seen people posted scripts before to do it though, so it should be possible to do. I don't think we plan to support GPSD directly though.
I think you should. GPSD is huge and allows for implementation of all kinds of different gps units and protocols. Also serial, i mean why not whats there to loose? The software is great but would just offer so much more flexibility.
My 2 cents anyway ;)
Since gpsd is a server type application just like traccar, i don't believe it is possible to make them communicate directly. What you can do is whip up a small python script (based on https://github.com/MartijnBraam/gpsd-py3 ) to make a http request with the GPS data from gpsd to traccar, for example in the OsmAnd format: https://www.traccar.org/osmand/
is there support for GPSD or serial?
How have these been overlooked?
