octoprint_install

These files provide a simple script that will install OctoPrint and a video streamer (mjpg-streamer or ustreamer) on virtually any linux based system. The system must use systemd.

How to use

• All commands assume you are operating out of your home directory using a terminal directly on the machine or by ssh.
• Install Ubuntu 20+, Mint 20.3+, Debian, DietPi, RPiOS, Armbian, Fedora35+, or ArchLinux on your system (make sure your user is admin for sudo).
• Install git if it isn't already: sudo apt install git or sudo dnf install git or sudo pacman -S git.
• run the command git clone https://github.com/paukstelis/octoprint_install.git.
• run the command sudo octoprint_install/octoprint_install.sh.
• Choose Install OctoPrint
• You will asked if you want to install haproxy and if you want to establish the admin user and do the first run settings with the command-line.
• You will be asked if you want to install recommended plugins.
• You can now connect to your OctoPrint instance (http://ipaddress:5000, http://hostname.local:5000, or if you used haproxy, no need to include port 5000)
• OctoPrint will always be started at boot.
• You can add a USB webcam by choosing the selection in the menu. Your camera service will be setup in /etc/systemd/system/cam_octoprint.service, and will be started upon boot
• NOTE: RPi cameras are not supported through this method, but can be installed manually.

What's New (0.1.3)

• Using dmesg instead of journalctl for detecting cameras
• Remove existing streamer installations, if they exist
• Add system shutdown command and appropriate sudo permissions
