Installing Octoprint For Os Xenoverse

Obtaining, building and running the source¶

I don't have a lot of experience with octoprint but I use mainsail because: Dark mode, No cartoon octopus on my screen, Edit printer cfg file from mainsail, It's a bit quicker to boot. I'm sure there's more reasons and maybe some of my reasons are invalid since I didn't use octoprint for very long. Enter the checked out source folder: cd OctoPrint. Create virtual environments in the checked out source folder for both Python 2 and Python 3 to use for installing and running OctoPrint and its dependencies. Creating virtual environments avoids potential versioning issues for the dependencies with system wide installed instances. 2014-10-04: Installation of OctoPi Hardware: Raspberry Pi B+ (512MB RAM; 4 USB ports) WiFi Bluetooth keyboard/mouse HDMI - monitor 16 GB MicroUSB drive.

This describes the general, platform agnostic steps in obtaining, building and running. OS specific instructions can be foundbelow.

Prerequisites:
- Python 3.7 including pip, setuptools and virtualenv
- Python 2.7 including pip, setuptools and virtualenv
Checkout the OctoPrint sources from their Git repository:
- gitclonehttps://github.com/OctoPrint/OctoPrint.git
Enter the checked out source folder: cdOctoPrint
Create virtual environments in the checked out source folder for both Python 2 and Python 3 to use forinstalling and running OctoPrint and its dependencies. Creating virtual environments avoids potential versioningissues for the dependencies with system wide installed instances:
- PY3: virtualenv--python=python3venv3
- PY2: virtualenv--python=python2venv2
Note
This assumes that python2 and python3 are binaries available directly on your PATH. If your Python 2 and 3binaries cannot be found on your PATH like this you’ll need to specify the full paths to them here,e.g. virtualenv--python=/path/to/python2/bin/pythonvenv2
Activate one of the virtual environments (the Python 3 venv should be considered theprimary one at this point):
- PY3: sourcevenv3/bin/activate (Linux, macOS) or sourcevenv3/Scripts/activate (Git Bash under Windows, see below)
- PY2: sourcevenv2/bin/activate (Linux, macOS) or sourcevenv2/Scripts/activate (Git Bash under Windows, see below)
Update pip in the virtual environment:
Install OctoPrint in “editable” mode,including its regular and development and plugin development dependencies:
- pipinstall-e'.[develop,plugins]'
Set up the pre-commit hooks that make sure any changes you do adhere to the styling rules:
Tell git where to find the file with revisions to exclude for gitblame:
- gitconfigblame.ignoreRevsFile.git-blame-ignore-revs

When the virtual environment is activated you can then:

run the OctoPrint server via octoprintserve
run the test suite from the checked out source folder via pytest
trigger the pre-commit check suite manually from the checked out source folder viapre-commitrun--hook-stagemanual--all-files

To switch the activated virtual environment, simply activate the new environment as described above.

To deactivate the virtual environment and return to the system’s default Python: deactivate.

If you also want to be able to build the documentation that resides in the docs subfolder, you need to activatethe Python 3 environment and install the docs dependencies as well:

sourcevenv3/bin/activate (Linux, macOS) or sourcevenv3/Scripts/activate (Git Bash under Windows, see below)
pipinstall-e'.[develop,plugins,docs]'

Go to the directory docs and you can then build the documentation:

The documentation will be available in the newly created _build directory. You can simply browse it locally by opening index.html

Linux¶

First make sure you have python 2 and 3 including their header files, pip, setuptools, virtualenv, git and some build requirementsinstalled:

On apt based distributions (e.g. Debian, Ubuntu, …):

Using a Linux distribution that doesn’t use apt? Please send aPull Request to get the necessarysteps into this guide!

Then:

You can then start OctoPrint via octoprint after activating one of the two virtual environments.

Windows¶

This assumes you’ll host your OctoPrint development checkout at C:DevelOctoPrint. If you want to use a differentlocation, please substitute accordingly.

First download & install:

Latest *stable* Python 2.7 and Python 3.8 releases from python.org(at the time of writing those are 2.7.18 and 3.8.7)
- make sure to have the installer add Python to the PATH and have it install pip too
- it’s recommended to install Python 2.7 into C:Python27 and Python 3 into C:Python38 - if you selectdifferent install locations please substitute accordingly
- it’s also recommended to have both versions get installed for all users
- install “C++ build tools” and ensure the latest versions of “MSVCv142 - VS 2019 C++ x64/x86 build tools” and“Windows 10 SDK” are checked under individual components.

Open the Git Bash you just installed and in that:

Optional but recommended tools¶

These are some tools that are recommended but not required to have on hand:

Add the following profile to profiles.list in the settings, that will allow you toeasily start Git Bash from the terminal:

Mac OS X¶

Note

This guide is based on the Setup Guide for Mac OS X on OctoPrint’s Community Forum.Please report back if it works for you, due to lack of access to a Mac I cannot test it myself. Thanks.

Todo

This guide is not yet adapted to the concurrent use of Python 2 and 3 environments during development. Please send aPull Request to get the necessarysteps into this guide!

This assumes you’ll host your OctoPrint development checkout at ~/devel/OctoPrint. If you want to use a differentlocation, please substitute accordingly.

You’ll need a user account with administrator privileges.

Install the latest version of Xcode suitable for your OS. For example, OS X 1
