How to build a simple weather station using a Ruuvitag and a Raspberry Pi.

I show you how to build a simple weather station using a Ruuvitag and a Raspberry Pi. The major feature of this project is the possibility to interact with the weather station using the power of Telegram Messenger Bots.

Here you can find:

• The detailed tutorial on Medium.

• My npm library: ruuvitag-telegram-bot.

• The complete library on github.

Ok, I tested all another time and I have the same “problem” but It works for me even with this error:

I remember this error and doesn’t cause any problems… The important thing is that the other packages are installed correctly and you see at the end something like:
node-ruuvitag@3.2.0
added 159 packages in 64.798s

If you had other problem in this installation you might run with sudo:
sudo npm install node-ruuvitag --production
