peatd

peatd is a configurable flight tracker for people who don't like configuring flight trackers.

The name stands for PPPDUD's Excellent ADS-B Tracker Daemon. Under the hood, it uses Wiedehopf's readsb for receiving flight data; viewadsb and ttyd handle the frontend.

Installation

Download one of the .deb files from the Releases tab and install it with sudo apt install ./peatd.deb (don't forget the ./ at the beginning!).

After installing peatd, you are heavily advised to study peatd(8) (general command information) and peatd(7) (configuration details).
