It's been a couple years-long process. I use my WiringPi::API to communicate with a Raspberry Pi in the backend, front-ended (API-wise) with my RPi::WiringPi distribution. I then laid on top of it App::RPi::EnvUI as the web-based, single-page front end to the entire system.

I also wrote Async::Event::Interval to handle tasks that need to be run in parallel.

Much of the core is C/XS based, such as the logic that controls the hygrometer, amongst other stuff.

Not too long ago, I put together all of the hardware in a prototype that has 120v relays to control fans, humidifiers, and of course, the grow lamps. I still haven't found the time to put together a blog post about it, as we've got 6" of snow here and its consistently -15 degrees celsius where I now live (northern BC, Canada) so I'm just catching up on wood cutting for heat. I will though, sometime.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
