## backend
|
||||
A [flask](https://pypi.org/project/Flask/) based application that takes the data from the ESP8266 for processing and storage.
|
||||
## web
|
||||
A [flask](https://pypi.org/project/Flask/) based application that takes the data from the ESP8266 for processing and storage and renders a HTML/CSS/JavaScript frontend from template.
|
||||
[Postgres](https://www.postgresql.org/) handles the storage of the measurements. The data is split up into two different tables, one for aqi related data and one for the weather data.
|
||||
Python interacts with Postgres with the help of the [psycopg](https://www.psycopg.org/) library.
|
||||
The flask app is recreating the graphs to visualize the aqi, PM 2.5 and PM 10 values on an interval. Aggregating is done with the [Pandas](https://pandas.pydata.org/) Python library and the graphs are created with [matplotlib](https://matplotlib.org/).
|
||||
The backend runs on a separate subdomain so it could easily be scaled horizontaly onto a separate server in the future.
|
||||
|
||||
## frontend
|
||||
A simple web site that gets AQI values from the backend to publish it nicely to see. Mostly build with HTML/CSS/JS and a little bit of PHP.
|
||||
New data is pulled from the backend on a interval with JavaScript and XMLHttpRequest library.
