Plain HTML5/JS viewer/renderer for rtl_power CSV files

[donothingloop]

Hey guys,

I currently work on a HTML5/JavaScript based viewer for CSV files generated by rtl_power. It renderes the CSV files locally on the client and doesn't rely on a server in any way.
Also it's open-source

It would be great if anybody finds the time for testing it and giving me feedback on it
If you find any bugs, please let me know.

You can find the demo page at: http://heat.wq.lc

The sources are at: https://github.com/donothingloop/rtl_heatmap/

Thanks,

Very nice software, I like it. One bug I had was that the frequency labels wouldn't update correctly after changing their interval. They would just bunch up very close. After moving the slider around a few times it eventually updated.

Did you click on 'Save' after moving the slider?

Otherwise I could not reproduce the problem. I'm testing the site in the latest FF and Chrome browsers.
Which one did you use?

I just added live-streaming support to the project
Now you can start the rtl_power utility and the python server and live-stream the heatmap to your browser.

If you setup a port-forward on your router you can even share the access to your streaming server with others and discuss parts of the plot in real time

Server and client sources are on github:

I also host the latest version on http://heat.wq.lc

To start the live stream you just have to call the rtl_power utility with a dash for stdout output.
So if you want to stream 443.6-434.2 mhz you could use:

Code: Select all

rtl_power -f 433.6M:434.2M:0.3k -g 35 -i 1 - | python rtl_heatmap_server.py
