### uncanny
Central controller software. Has a simple HTTP API for controlling output and
checking the current fill status of each slot.
Written in Go, must be compiled before use:
```shell
cd uncanny/
go build ./cmd/uncanny
```
The resulting `uncanny` executable should be running on the controlling
Raspberry Pi. An example SystemD unit is provided in `server/uncanny.service`.
Copy `uncanny` to `/usr/bin`, install the service file to
`/lib/systemd/system/uncanny.service` and enable it with:
```shell
cd uncanny/
cp uncanny /usr/bin/
cp uncanny.service /lib/systemd/system/
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable uncanny.service
```
A working CAN bus is required to run `uncanny`. You need to make sure the bus
is initialized at boot. On RaspberryOS/Raspbian/Debian, this can be achieved
with the following lines in `/etc/network/interfaces`:
```
auto can0
iface can0 inet manual
pre-up /sbin/ip link set $IFACE type can bitrate 125000 loopback off sample-point 0.75
up /sbin/ip link set $IFACE up
down /sbin/ip link set $IFACE down
```
