DWLOAD server implemented in Python
Project description
DwLoadServer
DWLOAD server implemented in Python (OpenSource, GPL v3 or above).
It’s in unuseable, experimental state and currently nothing more then some tests scripts.
current state
Currently the server can only send files to the DWLOAD client.
installation
The is a virtualenv bootstrap file, created with bootstrap_env, for easy installation.
Get the bootstrap file:
/home/FooBar$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DWLOAD/DwLoadServer/master/boot_dwload_server.py
There are tree types of installation:
option |
desciption |
|---|---|
pypi |
use Python Package Index (for all normal user!) |
git_readonly |
use git to get the sourcecode (for developer without write access) |
dev |
use git with write access |
e.g.:
/home/FooBar$ python3 boot_dwload_server.py ~/dwload_server_env --install_type pypi
This creates a virtualenv in ``~/dwload_server_env`` and used the packages from the Python Package Index.
startup
Setup server root directory. This is the directory for the files that are interchange with the client.
/home/FooBar$ cd ~/dwload_server_env/ /home/FooBar/dwload_server_env$ mkdir root
You have to put the DWEEB files into the root dir. e.g. dwload-demo-files from: https://github.com/DWLOAD/DWLOAD
To start the server:
/home/FooBar$ cd ~/dwload_server_env/ /home/FooBar/dwload_server_env$ ./bin/python -m dwload_server.dwload_server --port /dev/ttyUSB0 --root_dir ./root
Display CLI help:
/home/FooBar/dwload_server_env$ ./bin/python -m dwload_server.dwload_server --help
TODO
compare checksum
maybe use a config.ini file?!?
