|
|
|
|
> #### 👈 [back to readme](/README.md)
|
|
|
|
#### 🔴 You want to power RaspberryPi and automatically see your slideshow on a screen connected to it and manage your slideshow ? You're in the right place.
|
|
|
|
## 🎛️ Hardware installation
|
|
|
|
1. Download RaspberryPi Imager and setup an sdcard with `Raspberry Pi OS Lite` (🚨without desktop, only `Lite` version!). You'll find it under category `Raspberry PI OS (other)`
|
|
2. Log into your pi user locally or via ssh (`ssh pi@raspberrypi.local`)
|
|
3. Install player autorun by executing `curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jr-k/obscreen/master/system/install-autorun-rpi.sh | sudo bash`
|
|
|
|

|
|
## 🐳 Run with docker
|
|
### Install docker if needed
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl -sSL get.docker.com | sh
|
|
sudo usermod -aG docker pi
|
|
logout
|
|
#then login again
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### With docker (for test)
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Prepare application data file tree
|
|
cd /home/pi && mkdir -p obscreen/data/db obscreen/data/uploads && cd obscreen
|
|
|
|
# Prepare player autostart file
|
|
mkdir -p var/run && touch var/run/play && chmod +x var/run/play
|
|
|
|
# Run the Docker container
|
|
docker run --rm --name obscreen --pull=always \
|
|
-e DEBUG=false \
|
|
-e PORT=5000 \
|
|
-e PLAYER_AUTOSTART_FILE=/app/var/run/play \
|
|
-e SECRET_KEY=ANY_SECRET_KEY_HERE \
|
|
-p 5000:5000 \
|
|
-v ./data/db:/app/data/db \
|
|
-v ./data/uploads:/app/data/uploads \
|
|
-v ./var/run/play:/app/var/run/play \
|
|
jierka/obscreen:latest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Or with docker-compose
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Prepare application data file tree
|
|
cd /home/pi && mkdir -p obscreen/data/db obscreen/data/uploads obscreen/system && cd obscreen
|
|
|
|
# Prepare player autostart file
|
|
mkdir -p var/run && touch var/run/play && chmod +x var/run/play
|
|
|
|
# Download docker-compose.yml
|
|
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jr-k/obscreen/master/docker-compose.yml > docker-compose.yml
|
|
|
|
# Run
|
|
docker compose up --detach --pull always
|
|
```
|
|
---
|
|
## 📠 Run system wide
|
|
### Install
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Install system dependencies
|
|
sudo apt-get update
|
|
sudo apt-get install -y git python3-pip python3-venv
|
|
|
|
# Get files
|
|
git clone https://github.com/jr-k/obscreen.git && cd obscreen
|
|
|
|
# Install application dependencies
|
|
python3 -m venv venv
|
|
source ./venv/bin/activate
|
|
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
|
|
# Add some sample data
|
|
cp data/db/slideshow.json.dist data/db/slideshow.json
|
|
|
|
# Customize server default values
|
|
cp .env.dist .env
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Configure
|
|
- Server configuration is editable in `.env` file.
|
|
- Application configuration will be available at `http://raspberrypi.local:5000/settings` page after run.
|
|
|
|
### Start server (for test)
|
|
```bash
|
|
python ./obscreen.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Start server forever with systemctl
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo ln -s "$(pwd)/system/obscreen-manager.service" /etc/systemd/system/obscreen-manager.service
|
|
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
|
|
sudo systemctl enable obscreen-manager.service
|
|
sudo systemctl start obscreen-manager.service
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To troubleshoot you can check logs
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo journalctl -u obscreen-manager -f
|
|
```
|
|
---
|
|
## 🏁 Finally
|
|
- Run `sudo systemctl restart obscreen-player` or `sudo reboot`
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
## 👌 Usage
|
|
- Page which plays slideshow is reachable at `http://raspberrypi.local:5000`
|
|
- Slideshow manager is reachable at `http://raspberrypi.local:5000/manage`
|
|
|
|
## ✨ You are done now :)
|
|
- If everything is set up correctly, the RaspberryPi shall start chromium in fullscreen directly after boot screen and after some seconds of showing the date & time (`views/player/default.jinja.html`) your slideshow shall start and loop endlessly.
|
|
- Make sure that `PLAYER_AUTOSTART_FILE` exists and is writeable !

### Hardware checks
|
|
- Basic Setup
|
|
For basic RaspberryPi setup you can use most of the available guides, for example this one:
|
|
https://gist.github.com/blackjid/dfde6bedef148253f987
|
|
|
|
- HDMI Mode
|
|
You may need to set the HDMI Mode on the raspi to ensure the hdmi resolution matches your screen exactly. Here is the official documentation:
|
|
https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/config-txt/video.md
|
|
|
|
However, I used this one: `(2,82) = 1920x1080 60Hz 1080p`
