# Yogurt Temperature Control System
This project implements a temperature control system for making L. reuteri yogurt. It uses a NodeMCU with a DS18B20 temperature sensor to monitor the temperature and a Node.js server to control a Tuya smart plug for maintaining the desired temperature range.
## Features
- Real-time temperature monitoring
- Automatic control of heating element via Tuya smart plug
- Web interface for setting temperature range and viewing temperature history
- Full temperature history logging and graphing
## Hardware Requirements
- NodeMCU (ESP8266)
- DS18B20 temperature sensor
- Tuya-compatible smart plug
- Heating element (e.g., heating pad or incandescent bulb)
## Software Requirements
- Node.js (v12 or later)
- npm (usually comes with Node.js)
## Setup
### NodeMCU Setup
1. Connect the DS18B20 temperature sensor to your NodeMCU:
- VCC to 3.3V
- GND to GND
- DATA to GPIO 4 (D2 on NodeMCU)
2. Install the Arduino IDE and set it up for ESP8266 development.
3. Install the following libraries in the Arduino IDE:
- ESP8266WiFi
- OneWire
- DallasTemperature
4. Create a file named `env.h` in the same directory as your NodeMCU sketch with the following content:
```cpp
#define WIFI_SSID "Your_WiFi_SSID"
#define WIFI_PASSWORD "Your_WiFi_Password"
#define SERVER_HOST "Your_Server_IP_Address"
#define SERVER_PORT Your_Server_Port
```
5. Upload the NodeMCU sketch to your device.
### Server Setup
1. Clone this repository to your local machine.
2. Navigate to the project directory and install the required npm packages:
```
npm install
```
3. Create a `.env` file in the project root with the following content:
```
TUYA_DEVICE_ID=your_tuya_device_id
TUYA_DEVICE_KEY=your_tuya_device_key
TCP_PORT=3000
HTTP_PORT=3001
```
Replace `your_tuya_device_id` and `your_tuya_device_key` with your Tuya smart plug credentials.
4. Start the server:
```
node server.js
```
## Usage
1. Power on your NodeMCU and ensure it's connected to your WiFi network.
2. Start the Node.js server if it's not already running.
3. Open a web browser and navigate to `http://your_server_ip:3001` (replace `your_server_ip` with the IP address of the machine running the Node.js server).
4. Use the web interface to:
- View the current temperature
- Set the desired temperature range
- Monitor the temperature history graph
- Check the current status of the heating element (ON/OFF)
## Troubleshooting
- If the NodeMCU is not connecting to WiFi, double-check the SSID and password in the `env.h` file.
- If the server is not receiving temperature data, ensure that the NodeMCU is powered on and the SERVER_HOST and SERVER_PORT in `env.h` are correct.
- If the Tuya smart plug is not responding, verify the TUYA_DEVICE_ID and TUYA_DEVICE_KEY in the `.env` file.
