Noisebell is an Infrastructure project started by Jet in June of 2025 that informs the public of the open Status of Noisebridge.
History
[edit | edit source]SpaceJam
[edit | edit source]SpaceJam was a project started in May of 2022 by TJ which connected a Discord bot to a NodeMCU device. When a lever was flipped, the device would send out a message through a discord bot on our Discord server.
The last message from this bot was sent on 2025-05-04 and would not restart. With a lack of documentation, it was determined that a replacement with documentation, resilience, and more features was desired by the community.
Noisebell
[edit | edit source]
The project was picked up by Jet in June of 2025. With the intention of revitalizing access to our live status. It uses the same double knife switch as the original SpaceJam project. The knife switch connects with a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W inside of the Printer Room via GPIO.
Development
[edit | edit source]The core of the project is noisebell on GitHub. This is the code base that executes on the Raspberry Pi itself. It is programmed in Rust and compiled to the aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu triple for the Raspberry Pi. The program is loaded through scp.
The Discord bot is hosted on the Raspberry Pi and sends messages out from it.
Project Thread
[edit | edit source]Further discussion of the project is done through on the Noisebridge Status Project.
Features
[edit | edit source]Current Features
[edit | edit source]These are features currently available.
- Triggered by knife switch
- Asynchronous Switch Detection
- Software denouncing (10s)
- Discord bot messages with fancy embeds
Planned Features
[edit | edit source]These are features currently being worked on.
- Noisebell Status Website to display live open status on a webpage
- Public API to query that live open status
- Tunneling status through Tor
- Hosting a open status badge that is placed onto the Status page and linked on the sidebar
Potential Features
[edit | edit source]These are features that have been proposed but not planned to be added.
- Email Feed
- Home Automation for automatically turning on the lights for opening and closing
- SMS / Signal Feed (would require a cellular plan or phone number or Twillio)
- Better Physical Switch
- A case for Raspberry Pi
