sudo apt install git python3-pip lirc
```

### Clone this repo

cd /home/pi
git clone https://git.notice.at/redplanet/ir-remote-timer.git
cd ir-remote-timer
```

### Setting up the infrared
Use `irrecord` to create a lirc Config file. You need an ir receiver for that. 
`sudo irrecord -d /dev/lirc0`
and copy the generated file in 
`/etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/your-remotes-name.lircd.conf`  

remove devinput
`mv /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/devinput.lircd.conf /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/devinput.lircd.conf.dist`

Add following lines to `/etc/modules`
```
lirc_dev
lirc_rpi gpio_out_pin=22
```
