These files provide a simple bash script for quickly deploying multiple octoprint instances on a single computer.

BIG CHANGES

As of 02/22 there is no longer a need to download a specific image file. YouTube video for OctoPi setup here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5VzI4AFav4&lc

How to use

OctoPi
- Put the latest OctoPi image on your SD card
- ssh into your Pi (pi@octopi.local; good idea to change your password now!)
- run the command git clone https://github.com/paukstelis/octoprint_deploy.git
- run the command sudo octoprint_deploy/octoprint_deploy.sh
- Choose Prepare System from the menu
- Setup admin user by connecting to http://octopi.local via browser
- Back in the ssh session, choose Add Instance and follow the instructions.
- If your printer does not have a serial number, it will time out and use the physical USB address for udev entries.
- Continue until you have added all the printers you want to use
- haproxy entries are updated so you can connect via http://octopi.local/instancename/
Ubuntu (may work for other deb systems, not tested yet)
- Install Ubuntu 20-21.X on your system (make sure your user is admin for sudo)
- Install git if it isn't already: sudo apt install git
- run the command git clone https://github.com/paukstelis/octoprint_deploy.git
- run the command sudo octoprint_deploy/octoprint_deploy.sh
- Choose Prepare System from the menu. This will install necessary packages, install octoprint, and start an instance
- This converts your installation into an 'OctoBuntu' installation.
