+
+I've accidentally left our garage door open a few times. To combat this I built
+a monitor that sends an alert via Mattermost when the door has been left open
+for more than 5 minutes. This turned out to be a super fun project. I used
+parts on had as much as possible, implemented the monitoring application in
+Rust, and then built a stripped down Linux image to run it.
+
+

It has wires going to the power supply and reed switch, which is visible on the right of the photo.", caption="What we'll be building in this post. (In reality the reed switch and magnet are better aligned than they appear in the photo)") }}
+
+### Overview & Goals
+
+The garage door state is monitored via a reed switch. If the door is left open
+for more than 5 minutes a message is posted to a [Mattermost] channel. The
+monitor has a web server that allows the current state to be viewed (on
+the local network only). There's also a JSON endpoint that I use to put the
+door state in the status bar of my [Awesome] desktop. An LED on the device
+flashes to indicate status around once every second. All code and designs
+are published in a [git repo][repo].
+
+{{ figure(image="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/mattermost-notification.png", link="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/mattermost-notification.png", alt="Screenshot of the message posted to Mattermost by the garage door monitor. It reads: Garage door has been open for 5 minutes.", caption="Mattermost message posted by the monitor. A notification will be shown on my desktop or mobile if I'm away from my computer.", width=380, border=true) }}
+
+When I embarked on this project I researched the garage door opener that opens
+and closes the door. The installation document mentions an "E-Serial port" but
+it's listed as an input. I concluded that the opener doesn't readily expose the
+door state and proceeded with tracking this myself.
+
+I had a few goals in mind, which shaped the approach:
+
+1. Notify both my partner and I when the door is left open.
+2. Use parts I had on hand as much as possible.
+3. Minimise upkeep/maintenance of the final result.
+
+For notifications I made use of the [Mattermost] instance I host. I created a
+channel called House and then created an [incoming webhook][webhook] locked
+to that channel. The garage door monitor uses this web hook to post messages.
+
+It was important that the monitor be able to send notifications so that we
+would be alerted even if we were away from home. For example, if we left in the
+car but forgot to close the door. Without this requirement it would have been
+enough to wire an LED directly to the reed switch that could be observed from
+inside the house.
+
+Making https requests means the monitor needs to be able to access the
+internet. With the parts I had on hand this meant an [Espressif ESP32][esp32]
+or Raspberry Pi Zero W. The ESP32 would be perfect except I prefer to write
+software in [Rust] and after some investigation I concluded Rust on ESP32 is
+still immature, although [improving every month][esp-rust].
+
+So Pi Zero it was. The Pi Zero in question is actually the one I used for my
+[e-Paper conference badge in 2019][lca].

+
+### Software
+
+[The software][app] came together quickly. I used a thread per task approach
+where there is a dedicated thread for each of:
+
+- General-purpose input/output (GPIO)
+ - Monitors the door state and controls the status LED.
+- State management
+ - Receives updates from the GPIO thread via a channel and detects door state
+ transitions.
+ - Updates the global state when a change is detected and notes the time the
+ door was opened if the state transitions to open.
+- Notification thread
+ - Checks the global state every 5 seconds and sends a notification if the
+ door has been open for more than 5 minutes.
+ - Notes the notification time to prevent repeatedly sending the notification.
+- HTTP server
+ - Serves the web page and JSON endpoint.
+- Main thread
+ - Polls a flag every 5 seconds in order to detect signals and shutdown
+ cleanly (mainly useful during development).
+
+Acquiring access to the GPIO pins requires elevated privileges, so after that's
+done the application drops privileges to a regular user.
+
+All logging is done via syslog to avoid the need to manage an application
+specific log file. The logging was mainly used during development. The
+only way to see it is via the serial console.
+
+#### Web Server
+
+A failure mode of this whole arrangement is that if it stops working for some
+reason I won't know unless I observe the status LED. To remedy this I included
+a web server that allows the status of the device to be checked remotely (on
+the local network) via a web page.
+
+{{ figure(image="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/webpage.png", link="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/webpage.png", alt="Screenshots of the web page served by the garage door monitor. The left side shows the closed state with a green dot emoji and the right one shows the open state with a red dot emoji and the text: Opened 1 minute ago.", caption="Screenshots of the web page when the door is closed and open.", width=700) }}
+
+I then extended this with a JSON endpoint `/door.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+ "state": "Open",
+ "secs_since_notified": null,
+ "open_for": 9
+}
+```
+
+I use the JSON endpoint in my [status bar][bar] to show the door status:
+
+{{ figure(image="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/awesome-status-bar.png", link="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/awesome-status-bar.png", alt="Screenshot of my status bar showing the garage door state on the far right.", caption="Screenshot of my status bar showing the garage door state on the far right.", width=398) }}

+### Shrinking/Hardening/Buildroot
+
+The trouble with using a Raspberry Pi is now I have another computer I have to
+maintain: apply package updates, upgrade the OS, worry about [wearing out the SD
+card][sd-wear], etc. Raspberry Pi OS was great for getting the project off the ground but
+I wanted to slim it down so it was running the bare minimum amount of software.
+I also wanted it to run from RAM so that I didn't have to worry about the SD
+card wearing out or file-system corruption from unclean shutdowns.
+
+The aim was to turn the Pi into a glorified microcontroller that I could feel
+comfortable running for years without needing to worry about applying updates
+etc. Yes it's still possible that there is a vulnerability in the limited
+amount of software it runs but I feel like I've reduced the attack surface
+enough that I can happily let this thing run and it'll be fine.
+
+I used [Buildroot](https://buildroot.org/) to build a custom Linux file system
+image. I started with the base Buildroot Raspberry Pi Zero configuration and
+then trial-and-error disabled kernel features and tested that it still worked.
+The image started off at about 30Mb and ended up at 13Mb. The smallest microSD
+card I could get my hands on was 256Mb (thanks Kim), so the aim wasn't really
+the smallest image possible, more the most basic kernel configuration that
+would still run the application.
+
+In the end I disabled a lot of kernel features, including:
+
+- Ethernet devices, IPv6, Bluetooth, BPF, netfilter, cifs, nfs, PPP and other
+ network protocols and devices
+- Most file systems, SCSI
+- I2C, 1-wire, sensors devices
+- Display support
+- Quotas, accounting
+- USB, virtio, sdio, IR, PPS, HID
+- MD (LVM/RAID) and MMC block devices
+- Sound and multimedia devices, game controllers, etc.
+
+The resulting image boots and is interactive in under 5 seconds. The monitoring
+application itself starts running about 13 seconds after power is applied, as
+shown in the video below. The time between boot and the application running is
+taken by bringing up the Wi-Fi connection and syncing the clock.
+
+{{ video(video="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/power-on.m4v", height=360, alt="Video showing power being connected to the Raspberry Pi and the time passing until the status LED starts blinking", caption="Power on to status LED blinking in about 13 seconds.") }}
+
+The image runs entirely from the initial RAM disk embedded in the kernel image.
+The SD card is not even mounted, nor can it be mounted as the kernel lacks the
+necessary file-system support. The Raspberry Pi bootloader loads the kernel and
+initial RAM disk into memory from the SD card, then hands over to the kernel.
+
+The final image includes the following:
+
+- Linux kernel
+- [Busybox](https://busybox.net/)
+- Raspberry Pi Firmware
+- [OpenNTPD] — for syncing the clock
+- wpa_supplicant — for Wi-Fi
+- [daemon](https://www.libslack.org/daemon/) — process supervisor to restart
+ the `garage-door-monitor` binary if it exits for some reason.
+- [garage-door-monitor][app] — the application itself
+- [rsdate] — for setting the clock at boot
+
+Since the image lacks `ssh`, debugging was done over a serial console (which
+is protected by a password) while I iterated on the Buildroot image.
+
+[OpenNTPD] and [rsdate] are used for time keeping. Semi-accurate time is
+required to make `https` connections to Mattermost.
+[OpenNTPD removed its functionality for syncing the time at startup](https://github.com/openntpd-portable/openntpd-openbsd/commit/796283a2f842a878168c01bd8d42e34b10c1fef3)
+and since the Pi Zero lacks a real-time clock it boots up with the time set to
+the distant past. The delta is greater that OpenNTPD is willing to adjust for
+so the time remains in the past. To address this I built [rsdate], a small Rust
+tool that sets the system clock to the time retrieved from an ntp server. This
+is run at boot and afterward OpenNTPD takes care of keeping it in sync.
+
+Buildroot has built-in support for Rust so as part of the building the image it
+also cross-compiles the monitoring application and `rsdate` and bakes them into
+the image.
+
+I ran the image in my study for a couple of weeks occasionally flipping the
+door state by adding or removing a resistor on a breadboard to help ensure it
+was working properly.
+
+### Hardware
+
+#### Wiring
+
+The diagram below shows the limited wiring required:
+
+{{ figure(image="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/wiring-diagram.svg", link="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/wiring-diagram.svg", alt="Wiring diagram", caption="Wiring diagram") }}
+
+* The Pi is powered through header pins 4 (5V) and 6 (GND).
+* A reed switch is connected between pin 1 (3.3V) and pin 38 via a 10kΩ
+ resistor. Internal pull-downs are enabled on this pin.
+* The anode of a 3mm LED is connected to header pin 40 via a 220Ω current
+ limiting resistor. The cathode is connected to pin 39 (GND)
+
+The pin for reading the reed switch is configured so that if the reed switch
+is missing or broken then it will be detected as the door being open and
+an alert eventually sent.
+
+#### Status LED
+
+{{ figure(image="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/soldering-led.jpg", link="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/soldering-led.jpg", alt="Photo of alligator clip holding a piece of solid write in place for soldering between the Raspberry Pi header and LED cathode.", caption="Soldering the LED to the Raspberry Pi header.", resize_width=1600) }}
+
+The LED periodically blinks to show the state of the device. This allows
+correct operation to easily be observed in person.
+
+- No blinking: something is wrong
+ - Perhaps the application is not running or there was a permission issue
+ accessing GPIO. In the latter case other components of the application like
+ the web-server continue running so there are other ways to check what is
+ happening.
+- One blink: Door closed
+- Two blinks: Door open
+- Three blinks: Door state unknown
+

+
+{{ video(video="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/two-flash.m4v", height=338, alt="Video of the status LED blinking twice.", caption="Two blinks for door open.") }}
+
+#### Installation
+
+Our house came with a security system and there is a camera mounted on the
+front of the garage. The cable that runs to the camera goes right past where I
+wanted to put the garage door monitor and it carries 12V DC. To power the Pi from
+that I bought a [UBEC on AliExpress][UBEC] for US$1.94.
+
+The UBEC is a tiny switch-mode power supply intended for powering the receiver
+and servos in remote control planes, etc. It's perfect for the Pi too: It's
+rated at 3 amps, outputs 5V and can take a broad range of input voltages.
+
+[UBEC]: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32949780662.html?spm=a2g0o.order_detail.0.0.4ed6f19cubMzT1
+
+I cut the camera cable and spliced a little connector into it for the BEC to
+connect to. This turned out to be extremely fiddly and time consuming,
+requiring three attempts before I got a result I was happy with.
+
+{{ figure(image="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/splicing-power.jpg", link="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/splicing-power.jpg", alt="Photo of three exposed wires that have been soldered being held with helping hands.", caption="Splicing the BEC connector into the video camera cable.", resize_height=1200, height=600) }}
+
+{{ figure(image="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/spliced-power.jpg", link="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/spliced-power.jpg", alt="Photo of the camera cable completed with heatshrink tubing over the joint", caption="The completed splice with heatshrink tubing over the joint.", resize_height=1200, height=600) }}
+
+The only other part I had to buy for this project was the [reed switch](https://www.jaycar.com.au/security-alarm-reed-switch/p/LA5072?pos=12&queryId=70baa88bc7dd47cd48c78012da5a86be&sort=relevance).
+I picked this up from the local Jaycar for about AU$5. I mounted it between a
+bracket that holds the runner for the garage door and the door itself. The gap
+was too wide for the reed switch to operate so I designed a spacer in [FreeCAD]
+and 3D printed it. It's a block with 3mm holes and slots in the sides for nuts to slide
+into. You can [view the rendered model on GitHub](https://github.com/wezm/garage-door-monitor/blob/main/hardware/Reed%20Mount.stl).
+
+The first revision of the spacer was too tall and the slots for the nuts
+weren't quite big enough—I'm still new to 3D modeling and 3D printing. I
+tweaked the design (yay for parametric modeling) and printed a second version,
+which worked well.
+
+{{ figure(image="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/reed-switch-mounting.jpg", link="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/reed-switch-mounting.jpg", alt="Photo of the reed switch mounted on it's 3D printed mounting block.", caption="The reed switch mounted on the 3D printed spacer block.", resize_height=1200, height=600) }}
+
+I used super sticky double sided tape to attach everything to the wall and
+bracket.
+
+{{ figure(image="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/tape.jpg", link="posts/2022/garage-door-monitor/tape.jpg", alt="Photo of a roll of double sided body mounting tape on a table with mini screwdrivers to the left, a roll of solder above, and a Raspberry Pi Zero with an LED attached to the right.", caption="Mounting tape I had left over from another job around the house.", resize_width=1200, width=600) }}

+
+Before connecting the Pi to power I tested the BEC output and reed switch
+behaviour with a multimeter. I used washers under the reed switch to fine tune
+the gap between it and the magnet attached to the garage door to ensure it
+switched properly. Once all seemed well I connected the Pi and tested that the
+monitoring, web server, and notifications were working as expected—they were!
+
+### Conclusion
+
+This was a fun project as it combined several of my interests: hardware and
+electronics, software, web dev, and operating systems. I'm pleased with the end
+result. It's certainly not the smallest Linux system in the world but
+definitely a lot smaller than Raspberry Pi OS Lite.
+
+The true test will come if/when I leave the door open and receive a
+notification, making all this worth it. I'll post an update if that
+happens.
+
+All the code, hardware designs, and Buildroot configuration/overlay is
+available in [the git repository][repo] if you're interested.
