# Purple Air Data Logger(s) (PADLs)
A set of data logger(s) that will query purple air sensor(s) for data. That data will then be ingested into a TimeScaleDB PostGreSQL database, CSV files, or a SQLite3 database. To use these tools a PurpleAPI key is required. You can get API keys by sending an email to `contact@purpleair.com` with a first and last name to assign them to.

## Sample JSON Configuration File(s)
The following sample json configuration files can be used with any of the data loggers.
### PAA Single Sensor Request Example
Out of the parameters in the file below "sensor_index" is required. The others are all optional according to PurpleAirAPI (PAA) documentation. If a field is not being used, mark it 'null' without the single quotes.
See this [file](./sample_json_config_files/sample_single_sensor_request_json_file.json) for an example.
> Note: `poll_interval_seconds` is also required. It can not be lower than `60`. This is a custom field not defined by the PAA documentation.

A comma (,) separated list of sensor_index values. When provided, the results are limited only to the sensors included in this list.
modified_since optional long
The modified_since parameter causes only sensors modified after the provided time stamp to be included in the results. Using the time_stamp value from a previous call (recommended) will limit results to those with new values since the last request. Using a value of 0 will match sensors modified at any time.
max_age optional Integer
Filter results to only include sensors modified or updated within the last number of seconds. Using a value of 0 will match sensors of any age.
Default value: 604800
nwlng optional Number
A north west longitude for the bounding box.
Use a bounding box to limit the sensors returned to a specific geographic area. The bounding box is defined by two points, a north west latitude/longitude and a south east latitude/longitude.
nwlat optional Number
A north west latitude for the bounding box.
selng optional Number
A south east longitude for the bounding box.
selat optional Number
A south east latitude for the bounding box.
```
### PAA Group Sensor Request Example
Out of the parameters in the file below `sensor_group_name`, `add_sensors_to_group`, and `sensor_index_list` are custom settings not
defined in the official PAA documentation. These three setting help drive the `group` request feature.
`sensor_group_name` - This will be the name assigned to your group. If it doesn't exist already, it will be created.
Otherwise, the first group matching the name will be used.
`add_sensors_to_group` - If true, adds the sensors in the `sensor_index_list`. If false, `sensor_index_list` is ignored.
`sensor_index_list` - A list of sensor indexes that will be added to your group if they don't already exist.
The rest of the settings are official PAA settings. They are the same as the [### PAA Multiple Sensor Request Example](#paa-multiple-sensor-request-example). Refer above for details.
> Note: `poll_interval_seconds` is also required. It can not be lower than `60`. This is a custom field not defined by the PAA documentation.
See this [file](./sample_json_config_files/sample_group_sensor_request_json_file.json) for an example.
### PAA Local Sensor Request Example
Out of the parameters in the file below all are custom settings and are required.
`sensor_ip_list` - A string list of IPv4 addresses with no CIDR.
`poll_interval_seconds` - The poll interval to get information from local sensors on the network.
See this [file](./sample_json_config_files/sample_local_sensor_request_json_file.json) for an example.

When provided, the results are limited only to the sensors included in this list.\n\n modified_since optional long\n The modified_since parameter causes only sensors modified after the provided time stamp to be included in the results. Using the time_stamp value from a previous call (recommended) will limit results to those with new values since the last request. Using a value of 0 will match sensors modified at any time.\n\n max_age optional Integer\n Filter results to only include sensors modified or updated within the last number of seconds. Using a value of 0 will match sensors of any age.\n\n Default value: 604800\n\n nwlng optional Number\n A north west longitude for the bounding box.\n\n Use a bounding box to limit the sensors returned to a specific geographic area. The bounding box is defined by two points, a north west latitude/longitude and a south east latitude/longitude.\n\n nwlat optional Number\n A north west latitude for the bounding box.\n\n selng optional Number\n A south east longitude for the bounding box.\n\n selat optional Number\n A south east latitude for the bounding box.\n```\n\n### PAA Group Sensor Request Example\n\nOut of the parameters in the file below `sensor_group_name`, `add_sensors_to_group`, and `sensor_index_list` are custom settings not\ndefined in the official PAA documentation. These three setting help drive the `group` request feature.\n\n`sensor_group_name` - This will be the name assigned to your group. If it doesn't exist already, it will be created.\nOtherwise, the first group matching the name will be used.\n\n`add_sensors_to_group` - If true, adds the sensors in the `sensor_index_list`. If false, `sensor_index_list` is ignored.\n\n`sensor_index_list` - A list of sensor indexes that will be added to your group if they don't already exist.\n\nThe rest of the settings are official PAA settings. They are the same as the [### PAA Multiple Sensor Request Example](#paa-multiple-sensor-request-example). Refer above for details.\n\n> Note: `poll_interval_seconds` is also required. It can not be lower than `60`. This is a custom field not defined by the PAA documentation.\n\nSee this [file](./sample_json_config_files/sample_group_sensor_request_json_file.json) for an example.\n\n### PAA Local Sensor Request Example\n\nOut of the parameters in the file below all are custom settings and are required.\n\n`sensor_ip_list` - A string list of IPv4 addresses with no CIDR.\n\n`poll_interval_seconds` - The poll interval to get information from local sensors on the network.\n\nSee this [file](./sample_json_config_files/sample_local_sensor_request_json_file.json) for an example.\n",
