tralnx

About

tralnx is a traccar client for GNU/Linux. It uses gpsd(8) to retrieve and send the current GPS location to a traccar[1] server instance.

tralnx rudimentary implements parts of the Skypatrol protocol (only the required stuff to get it working with traccar). The protocol uses udp port 5021.

Installation

The following perl modules are required:

Log::Dispatch Net::GPSD3 Proc::Daemon Proc::PID::File

Net::GPSD3 uses GPS::Point. tralnxd uses the GPS::Point method to calculate distances - you need the following addtional packages:

Geo::Inverse Geo::Constants Geo::Ellipsoids Geo::Functions

On Debian those libs are not packaged, you need to fetch them from CPAN[2] by yourself.
