Raspberry Pi Temperature Logger Using gspread

This is a set of instructions for a temperature logger using the Raspberry Pi.  It uses gspread, a python library to take data from the temperature probe and report it out to a google spreadsheet.  I found this to be incredibly helpful, and an easy way to log lots of information in a place that is easy to access and easy to download.

 

This is good for now, but the next step is to build a client website that will start and stop the temperature probe, open and title a new spreadsheet, and display the current temperature as well as a graph of the temperature over time.  I think that should be pretty straightforward, but its all things I don't know how to do.  It just seems to me like it is something I can learn to do, which is why I love this stuff overall.

 

Enjoy!

    Mike, Thanks for the instructions and the links to the Github files.  I am having some problems as I can not git gspread to load.  When executing the  the "sudo python setup.py install" I get an error message that setup.py can not be found.  I would like to know if this sensor to google sheets is still viable and how to proceed.  I would like to know the version of raspberry os to use and any other add ins needed.

    Thanks, Jim

    This is quite an old post that you are responding to, dated 2014. Might want to at-mention  mikedavis to get their attention.

    It looks like gspread is still being maintained but the setup.py installer is no longer included and hence why you are getting the error message.

    Might want to try the using the pip package installer
