+# Pi.Alert all split into modules
+
+I am trying to split this big original file into modules and gives me some nice challanges to solve.
+Since the original code is all in one file, the original author has taken quite some shortcuts by defining lots of variables as global !!
+These need to be changed now.
+
+Here is the main structure
+
+| Module | Description |
+|--------|-----------|
+|pialert.py | The MAIN program of Pi.Alert|
+|const.py | A place to define the constants for Pi.Alert like log path or config path.|
+|const.py| const.py holds the configuration variables and makes them availabe for all modules. It is also the <b>workaround</b> for the global variables until I can work them out|
+|api.py| |
