Paperframe Client

Install

  • Ensure that this script will run as a user called paperframe and that it can sudo. This can be done by setting the default username in the the RasperryPi SD card writer.
  • Per the screen manufacturer's instructions, enable the SPI kernel module:
    • Run sudo raspi-config
    • Choose Interfacing Options -> SPI -> Yes Enable SPI interface
    • Their wiki
  • Reboot
  • Install the latest tarball:
    • @TODO: Update URL once this is merged into trunk.
    • curl -o - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tsmith512/paperframe-client/dev/dist/home/paperframe/update.sh | bash
    • This runs update.sh, and part of that process will be to create a version copy in Paperframe's home directory.

Credits

This includes a ton of strategy and code from David Eisinger's dce/e-paper-frame, author of one of the tutorials I used for the RPi/display portion of the Paperframe project. Many thanks for sharing and clearly documenting!
