An vibration measurement app for the RPI.

Follow https://vibe.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html for the rpi setup, i.e. complete these sections up to the vibe-recorder setup

ssh into your rpi and:

$ ssh pi@myrpi
$ sudo apt install python3 python3-venv python3-pip libyaml-dev git
$ mkdir python
$ cd python
$ python3 -m venv qvibe
$ cd qvibe
$ . bin/activate
$ pip install git+https://github.com/3ll3d00d/qvibe-recorder

This is optional but recommended, it ensures the recorder app starts automatically whenever the rpi boots up and makes sure it restarts automatically if it ever crashes.

We will achieve this by creating and enabling a `systemd`_ service.

1. Create a file qvibe.service in the appropriate location for your distro (e.g. /etc/systemd/system/ for debian):

   [Unit]
   Description=qvibe
   After=network.target
   
   [Service]
   Type=simple
   User=myuser
   WorkingDirectory=/home/pi
   ExecStart=/home/pi/python/qvibe/bin/qvibe-recorder
   Restart=always
   RestartSec=1
   
   [Install]
   WantedBy=multi-user.target
   

2. enable the service and start it up:

   $ sudo systemctl enable qvibe.service
   $ sudo service qvibe start
   $ sudo journalctl -u qvibe.service
