Fuel Tracker
============
Track your fuel consumption.
[More details](http://www.pommepause.com/blog/2010/06/fuel-consumption-tracker/)
Installation
------------
- Import *fueltrack.sql* into your MySQL database:
```
mysql -u root -p -e 'CREATE DATABASE fueltrack'
mysql -u root -p fueltrack < fueltrack.sql
```
- Create a new user:
`mysql -u root -p -e "GRANT ALL ON fueltrack.* TO fuel_user@'localhost' identified by 'password_here'"`
- Change the options in config.inc.php to match your MySQL host, user & password.
- Insert new rows in the cars table; one per car you want to track.
The owner field should be an email address.
How to use
----------
Enter data using the web UI, or by sending an email to [email protected], if you have your own MX server.
Emails
------
- If you have your own MX server, configure incoming emails to trigger the incoming_email.php script.
I use Postfix, and configured it like this, in /etc/postfix/master.cf:
```
fueltrack unix - n n - 1 pipe
flags=Fq user=gb argv=/var/www/html/fueltrack/incoming_email.php $sender $recipient $mailbox
```
- configure *incoming_email.php* to recognize the car the incoming email is for (check near line 12).
- send an email with the keyword configured above in the subject, and in the body, enter 3 numbers: KPL (KM since last fill, price per liter, and number of liters)
