pi-chart
A basic server to display basic 2D Raster/Vector content on the Raspberry Pi via HTTP. This is intended to be used to display graphs and charts on a TV as a basic kiosk/heads-up sort of display.
To current TODO list/some ideas:
- Get HTTP server listening for POST requests.
- Allow Images to be POSTed directly.
- Allow Image URLs to be POSTed.
- Create a JSON or XML-based format for sending raw data to be graphed:
- Bar
- Line
- Pie
- Points (Scatter)
- Others?
- Images
- Allow multiple content pieces to be put together in a single POST and displayed in different parts of the screen.
- Create an update-only mode where layout and display is set, but datasets change dynamically.
