Dependancies

*Python 2.7 64bit or 32bit (64 bit recommended) *Scripts assume location of python c:\Python27_32 or c:\Python27_64 *Available at [https://www.python.org/] *Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7 *Available at [http://aka.ms/vcpython27] *Virtual Python Environment builder *Install with "%PYTHONPATH%\Scripts\pip.exe install virtualenv *Other dependancies are installed by the build scripts.

Setup environment and build

Running build_windows_amd64-zip.bat or build_windows_x86-zip.bat will setup the environment and installed required components.

Running

As PeachyPrinter runs in a python virtual environment you first need to activate it: call venv/Scripts/activate.bat Once activated the software can be run with the command: python src/main.py

Mac

Dependancies

*pip *If Homebrew is install this can be install via the home brew install of python which is a good idea for python development rather the using the built in: brew install python *Virtual Python Environment builder *Install with pip install virtualenv *Other dependancies are installed by the build scripts.

Setup environment

Running build_mac.sh will setup the environment and installed required components.

Running

As PeachyPrinter runs in a python virtual environment you first need to activate it: source venv/bin/activate Once activated the software can be run with the command: python src/main.py

Linux

Dependancies

  • amd64 platform
  • darwin like linux (all testing done with ubuntu) Other operating systems may work as well if dependancies can be met but are not yet supported

Setup environment

There is a handy script to help you get started: 1 Checkout the code from github git clone https://github.com/PeachyPrinter/peachyprinter.git 3 Open a terminal window and go to the directory you just unziped. 4 Type ./build_linux.sh -d -i -j and hit enter to run

  • The -i flag will install the requirements via apt.
  • The -j flag adds a line to allow access to the usb port. and creates a run.sh script.
  • The -d Builds a driver.

Running

./run.sh and hit enter to start the software.

#Known Issues (Includes API issues)

  • Configuration can have problems if printers are swapped while software is running
  • Virtual machines will not work as the usb driver abstractions cannot keep up
