Hello, I have recently found this tool as I'm in need of a self hosted ntrip caster and struggled to understand the exact formatting of the config files. I used a coding agent to produce some more comprehensive documentation for the configuration files to make it easier to understand and implement for the next guy. Understandable if you do not want to merge any LLM Generated content, but figured it was worth offering. |
fix: use memmove instead of strcpy for overlapping memory

I didn't write the NTRIP caster. It was written for BKG, a German organisation that supports accurate GNSS. I simply took their solution and got it running under Docker to make it easier to install. Mind you, the version used here is out of date and needs upgrading. BKG still maintain and support the caster, so you need to talk to them. If you hunt through my (very long-winded) Readme, you will see how to find the BKG organisation. |
