have a system that uses gpsd as a source for positioning. I need to integrate it with another system that gives me latitude, longitude & time.
I was able to generate NMEA sentences using nmealib:
address@hidden :~/Desktop/nmealib$
build/samples_generate
$GPGGA,154400.00,5000.0000,N,3600.0000,E,3,01,0.0,10.9,M,0.0,M,0.0,0000*7d
$GPGSA,A,3,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,0.0,0.0,0.0*32
$GPGSV,1,1,01,00,00,000,00,00,00,000,00,00,00,000,00,00,00,000,00*78
My goal was then to pipe this to gpsd.
Option 1: with a FIFO file: mkfifo /tmp/mkfifo
gpsd /tmp/mkfifo
./samples_generate > /tmp/mkfifo
Option 2: with a TCP socket:
gpsd tcp://localhost:8888
/samples_generate | nc -p
8888
On both situation, gpsd gave an error.
In essence, I would like to have similar functionality to gpsfake, but without using a logfile, instead using the stdout from my script.
Do you have any idea on how to realise this setup?
