Fun With DIY : Proposal progression display
Hello everybody ! Today, I want to see how my proposal evolves day by day. Instead of refresh PeakD or Ecency page, I create a small thing with a small screen that i have collected many months ago, and a Raspberry Pi 4 that was sleeping in a drawer.

Ladies & gentlemen, let me show you the PPD : Proposal Progression Display !

![I love this DIY !](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/bambukah/EoeDTrTfz3Tj6xRjUL2gR5B2MJfvC1GDQAKFPT1VyVmhfmjGiNwPSrHeD96JeucCFTs.jpg)

If you like the project, don't forget to vote for the SuperHive proposal on [**PeakD**](https://peakd.com/me/proposals/211) or [**Ecency**](https://ecency.com/proposals/211)

## Materials :

For this tutorial, I'll skip the wood case construction, it's only 4 pieces of wood glued together and paint in black. But I'll focus on configuration & coding.

For this tutorial, you need :

- A Raspberry PI 3 or 4
- A HDMI screen, mine is the Waveshare 7.9 LCD touchscreen
- A Raspbian Lite SD Card

![Materials used for this tutorial](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/bambukah/EoGwxCqeoAXBKU67QvksppzWAz7e85K8AyptHjodCq3BwPbUiwALu1NrCbhryRAEa3r.jpg)

## Dependencies installation

After installing Raspbian Lite on the SD card, we will install X server (for displaying the browser), Chromium browser (to show the progress web page in kiosk mode), NginX to serve the page. Let's go, conect to your Pi with SSH and execute :

```
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --no-install-recommends xserver-xorg-video-all xserver-xorg-input-all xserver-xorg-core xinit x11-xserver-utils chromium-browser unclutter nginx git
```

Also, you need to activate the console autologin to load X server & Chromium at startup. So execute `sudo raspi-config`, select `System options -> S5 Boot / Autogin` and choose `B2 Console autologin` 

## Configuration

### Display server
After installing all dependencies, It's the time for configuration. The first thing I want is to load display server with Chromium. Edit / Create the /home/pi/.bash_profile, and copy/paste this script :  
```
if [ -z $DISPLAY ] && [ $(tty) = /dev/tty1 ]
then
  startx
fi
```

### Chromium
It's ok for X, We need to do the same for Chromium, edit the /home/pi/.xinitrc and paste this script :
```
#!/usr/bin/env sh
xset -dpms
xset s off
xset s noblank

unclutter &
chromium-browser https://localhost/ --window-position=0,0 --start-fullscreen --kiosk --incognito --noerrdialogs --disable-translate --no-first-run --fast --fast-start --disable-infobars --disable-features=TranslateUI --disk-cache-dir=/dev/null --overscroll-history-navigation=0 --disable-pinch --window-size=400,1280
```

CAUTION : look at the `--window-size=400,1280`, it's the settings for the waveshare 7.9 screen. Change them for your screen (horizontal and vertical).

### NginX
This step is to change the NginX user to pi and the root folder.

First, create the web folder into /home/pi : `mkdir /home/pi/web`

After that, edit the /etc/nginx/nginx.conf (with sudo) and change the first line to `user pi;`

And last thing to do, edit the `/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default` and change the `root` line to /home/pi/web

## Install the PPD

Now, it's time to clone the [hive-ppd github repo](https://github.com/fkosmala/hive-ppd) into /home/pi/web :
```
git clone https://github.com/fkosmala/hive-ppd /home/pi/web
```

If you want to change the displayed proposal, edit the /home/pi/web/index.html at line 57, change the id of the proposal, and reboot !

## Final words
Hope you enjoyed this little DIY. If you like this project or any other HIVE projects i've made, consider support the SuperHive proposal on [**PeakD**](https://peakd.com/me/proposals/211) or [**Ecency**](https://ecency.com/proposals/211). Thank you very much !

Have a great day
