    Hi

    Complete newbie - but I appear to have got the custom feed working. However - is there a way to have a URL only for the custom feed which I can share?

    Any help very much appreciated.

    What do you mean? URL only you can share?

    Sorry - no a public URL for the particular custom feed. At the moment I can go to 'Custom Feeds' off the front page, and select the required Receiver. What I'd like to do is just grab a link what I can bookmark and share.

    We don't have feeder specific traffic maps other than the custom feeds. Maybe in the future but as this is a free project with volunteers, you are free to code that up. You can share your local pi dump1090 map by opening that up using port forwarding and a url service, etc ,etc.

    Zerotier.com is also a pretty cool way to set it up. However you have to make some edits to various files because piaware will try to send traffic over the vlan and not the wifi.

    install ZeroTier
    Create account at ZeroTier
    Create a newtork and join

    ifconfig to make sure names for interfaces are what they are zt, eth, wlan, etc

    in /etc/network/interfaces add the following

    auto lo
    iface lo inet loopback

    allow-hotplug zt0
    iface zt0 inet static
    metric 100

    allow-hotplug eth0
    iface eth0 inet dhcp
    metric 10

    allow-hotplug wlan0
    iface wlan0 inet dhcp
    metric 20


    Then on any device, install ZeroTier, join your network, and access over vlan using ZT ip.


    OR

    Expose your local dump 1090 output port (30005) by default to the Internet
    You could also forward the traffic to your own server using a similar script to how we do with netcat_maint.sh

    Install VRS or dump1090 on a public server and have it connect to your local output port
    Access you public server to see your traffic from anywhere


    Everything is opensource and nothing is binary with out sharing the code. Feel free to build stuff!
