dump1090-fa Debian/Raspbian packages

dump1090-fa is a ADS-B, Mode S, and Mode 3A/3C demodulator and decoder that will receive and decode aircraft transponder messages received via a directly connected software defined radio, or from data provided over a network connection.

It is the successor to dump1090-mutability and is maintained by FlightAware.

It can provide a display of locally received aircraft data in a terminal or via a browser map. Together with PiAware it can be used to contribute crowd-sourced flight tracking data to FlightAware.

It is designed to build as a Debian package, but should also be buildable on many other Linux or Unix-like systems.

Building under buster

$ sudo apt-get install build-essential debhelper librtlsdr-dev pkg-config dh-systemd libncurses5-dev libbladerf-dev libhackrf-dev liblimesuite-dev
$ dpkg-buildpackage -b --no-sign

Building under stretch

$ sudo apt-get install build-essential debhelper librtlsdr-dev pkg-config dh-systemd libncurses5-dev libbladerf-dev
$ dpkg-buildpackage -b --no-sign

Building under jessie

Dependencies - bladeRF

You will need a build of libbladeRF. You can build packages from source:

$ git clone https://github.com/Nuand/bladeRF.git  
$ cd bladeRF  
$ git checkout 2017.12-rc1  
$ dpkg-buildpackage -b

Or Nuand has some build/install instructions including an Ubuntu PPA at https://github.com/Nuand/bladeRF/wiki/Getting-Started:-Linux

Or FlightAware provides armhf packages as part of the piaware repository; see https://flightaware.com/adsb/piaware/install

Dependencies - rtlsdr

This is packaged with jessie. sudo apt-get install librtlsdr-dev

Actually building it

Nothing special, just build it (dpkg-buildpackage -b)

Building with limited dependencies

The package supports some build profiles to allow building without all required SDR libraries being present. This will produce a package with limited SDR support only.

Pass --build-profiles to dpkg-buildpackage with a comma-separated list of profiles. The list of profiles should include custom and zero or more of rtlsdr, bladerf, hackrf, limesdr depending on what you want:

$ dpkg-buildpackage -b --no-sign --build-profiles=custom,rtlsdr          # builds with rtlsdr support only
$ dpkg-buildpackage -b --no-sign --build-profiles=custom,rtlsdr,bladerf  # builds with rtlsdr and bladeRF support
$ dpkg-buildpackage -b --no-sign --build-profiles=custom                 # builds with _no_ SDR support (network support only)

Building manually

You can probably just run "make" after installing the required dependencies. Binaries are built in the source directory; you will need to arrange to install them (and a method for starting them) yourself.

make BLADERF=no will disable bladeRF support and remove the dependency on libbladeRF.

make RTLSDR=no will disable rtl-sdr support and remove the dependency on librtlsdr.

make HACKRF=no will disable HackRF support and remove the dependency on libhackrf.

make LIMESDR=no will disable LimeSDR support and remove the dependency on libLimeSuite.

Building on OSX

Minimal testing on Mojave 10.14.6, YMMV.

$ brew install librtlsdr
$ brew install libbladerf
$ brew install hackrf
$ brew install pkg-config
$ make

Building on FreeBSD

Minimal testing on 12.1-RELEASE, YMMV.

# pkg install gmake
# pkg install pkgconf
# pkg install rtl-sdr
# pkg install bladerf
# pkg install hackrf
$ gmake
