E-Hub for Raspberry PI

E-Hub is a Python-based software designed for a desk unit equipped with an e-ink display. It provides at-a-glance information such as weather updates and calendar events, making it ideal for productivity and organization at your workspace.

Features

• Weather Display: Shows current weather information from configurable data providers.
• Calendar Integration: Displays upcoming events from your calendar.
• Configurable: Easily adjust settings and data sources through the config.yaml file.
• E-Ink Optimized: Designed specifically for low-power, high-contrast e-ink screens.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Python 3.8+
• Required Python packages (see requirements.txt)
• E-ink display hardware (tested with Waveshare models)

Installation

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone <repo-url>
   cd e-hub

2. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Configure your settings in config.yaml (see below).

• Display refresh intervals
• Other display preferences

File Structure

• main.py — Entry point for the application
• data_providers/ — Modules for weather and calendar data
• render/ — Layout and rendering logic for the e-ink display
• assets/ — Fonts and images used in the UI
• config.yaml — User-editable configuration file

Roadmap

• Weather display
• Calendar integration
• Additional widgets (e.g., news, reminders)
• Web-based configuration UI
• Home automation integration
