The Raspberry Pi 3 B+ will have the DHT22 temperature / humidity sensors connected to it. This will be polled on a scheduled basis on the device itself, sent to a Zapier endpoint which will then fire off actions based on conditions. One constant will be a webhook listener that will receive every data point and dump it into a MySQL database.

• Power Pi off and setup the DHT sensors on GPIO
• Power Pi back on
• Setup SSH on Retropie
• Full apt-get update and upgrade
• Install the DHT Adafruit Python library
• Test
• Install webook curl bash script
• Update bash script to reflect Adafruit python script
• Setup cron for every 10 minutes (*/10 * * * *)
• Test

sudo apt-get -y install build-essential python-dev python-openssl git

git clone https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_Python_DHT.git && cd Adafruit_Python_DHT

sudo python setup.py install

Once completed: cd examples sudo ./AdafruitDHT.py 22 (GPIO connector number)
