A queue system for NuVu’s laser cutter, with websockets. NuVu Studio has a lasercutter, and only one of them. A lot of people want to use it, and managing it is a pain. This software aims to simplify that with a simple web-based frontend accessible locally and on a TV mounted in the wall. It is developed primarily by @sdaitzman and @yrsegal.
Download the latest stable version from github.com/yrsegal/LaserQueue/releases and decompress it.
Get the latest version by git cloneing the repo or downloading a zip. Auto-updating is planned but not yet implemented.
To start the server, run start.sh as root. If on Windows, run startbackend.bat. You'll need Python 3.4.x or greater.
To change the admin login password, create a plaintext file password under backend. This will be hashed upon script run.
-h,--help: Display a list of these flags. Does not start the backend.-p,--port: Set the port for the website to be hosted.-l,--local: Start the backend in local mode. You'll connect with localhost.-q,--quiet: Start without output. Only applies to start.sh. Equivalent to >/dev/null.-b,--queue-backup: Enable queue backups. The queue will load from the cache on start, and cache every 20 seconds.-r,--regen-config: Regenerate the config. This is the default option if no config.json file is found in WWW-n,--regen-host: Regenerate the host in the config. Does not affect any other config values.-s,--skip-install: Does not install dependencies that are not met. Otherwise, you will be prompted unless you use--install-all.--install-all: No short option. Installs all dependencies without prompting
All dependencies should be met the first time you run the program. The program will detect your system and prompt to install them. However, you will definitely need Python >=3.4.x for WebSockets. If (for some reason) you would like to install these by hand, feel free:
- Python 3.4.x
- netifaces (
#~ pip3 install netifaces) - On Windows: pyautoit, pyserial (installing these manually on Windows is not recommended)
