# Go Location Logger A simple Go program that handles location data sent via HTTP POST requests and inserts it into a MySQL database. ## Features - Handles JSON payloads containing location data. - Inserts location data into a MySQL database. - Utilizes headers `X-Limit-U` and `X-Limit-D` for specifying user and device information in HTTP requests. ## Prerequisites Before running the program, ensure you have the following: - Go installed: [https://golang.org/doc/install](https://golang.org/doc/install) - Docker and Docker Compose installed: [https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) ## Installation 1. Clone the repository: ```bash git clone https://github.com/yourusername/go-location-logger.git ``` 2. Navigate to the project directory: ```bash cd go-location-logger ``` 3. Install dependencies: ```bash go get -u github.com/sirupsen/logrus ``` 4. Create an `.env` file in the project root with your environment variables: ```plaintext # .env DB_USER=your_db_user DB_PASSWORD=your_db_password DB_HOST=your_db_host DB_PORT=your_db_port DB_NAME=your_db_name ``` ## Usage ### Running with Docker Compose 1. Use Docker Compose to start the services: ```bash docker-compose up -d ``` 2. Access your Go application at `http://localhost:8080`. Make HTTP POST requests as described in the README.md. 3. Import the Grafana Dashboard from `dashboard.json`. Use the Grafana UI to import the dashboard and visualize your data. 4. To stop the services, run: ```bash docker-compose down ``` ### Running without Docker If you prefer not to use Docker, you can run the Go application directly using: ```bash go run main.go ``` The server will start on `http://localhost:8080`. Make a POST request with a JSON payload to `http://localhost:8080/?device=your_device&user=your_user`. The JSON payload should include location data. Example: ```bash curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "X-Limit-U: your_user" \ -H "X-Limit-D: your_device" \ -H "Authorization: Basic your_token" \ -d '{ "_type": "location", "tst": 1700820453, "lat": 37.7749, "lon": -122.4194, "alt": 90, "batt": 94, "acc": 35, "bs": 2, "p": 99.314, "created_at": 1700820457, "BSSID": "e8:48:b8:7f:b4:d4", "SSID": "Mr.Puhu", "vac": 20, "tag": "Arbeit", "topic": "owntracks/simono41/6193B679-AD67-4B93-9DF2-158501A055AF", "conn": "w", "m": 1, "tid": "AF" }' \ http://localhost:8080/ ``` ## Contributing Feel free to open issues or submit pull requests. ## License This project is licensed under the MIT License - see the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file for details.
