![]() Raspberry pi 2 or better) sudo tee /usr/bin/installRepetierNightly > /dev/null /dev/null /dev/null /dev/null /dev/null <<EOF You might get asked for your password due to sudo requirement to install it as command in /usr/bin. First copy the complete code for your processor version and paste it into the terminal. Open a terminal – either by logging in to your linux pc with ssh or by opening a terminal on the linux desktop. ![]() No panic, we show you exactly what to do. So you should write an update command for your version. Now if you use nightly builds, you most likely want to update them on a regular basis. We have no automatic generator for Windows and macOS. At the moment we only create them for all linux versions. There is no real need to backup the big stuff like g-codes, projects, timelapses.įirst, make sure your operating system is supported for nighty builds. That way you can just restore old settings. Best is to make a backup of your configurations with Repetier-Server Monitor before installing a nightly build. In some rare cases you also loose old settings, if the new system stored the values in a different way. You might loose new settings on the backgrade. You can also use manuall install of latest previous stable release in case the nightly breaks printing and you need your printer. You can simply use the manual installation for the new version to switch from nightly to stable release. One drawback of nighty builds is, that they contain the same version as next stable version. So if you find a bug you should report it so we check and fix it. One reason to provide nightly builds is, to get early feedback. Only towards final release we start extra tests to check for problems to fix before release. But not knowing is no guarantee for not having. Our policy is to only check in code, when we do not know about an error caused by this. In rare cases we made some mistake breaking something, we did not want to break. The typical case will be, that the system runs stable and just the features we are working on might have issues. They get published based on the latest checked in sources. There is no special testing for these builds. So for those wanting to test brand new features or needing fixes not published yet, we offer our nightly builds for testing. When you get your PC sorted you can then manage everything from your PC.Depending on what we are working on, it can take some time until a feature you are waiting for gets published, also we already have written it. No PC required (although the Pi technically is a PC). You can connect a keyboard, mouse, and monitor directly to the Pi and do all your final configuration there and start using it if you want. Then take it home, plug it in to your Pi, and fire it up. If your computer is currently borked just find a friend with a computer and have them help you with installing the OctoPi premade image on to an SD card. It won't cost you anything but time to try, so give it a go. ![]() Unless you have a number of printers and want to manage them as a printer farm, I think it will do the job for you. Once you get up and running you will be in a better place to evaluate if it does everything you need. Not to mention a huge number of useful plugins like Bed Visualizer, Octolapse for video recording, etc. Unless you have some specific need that it can't address, then I think it's the best place to start since it's free and has a robust community to help you get stated. Octoprint or OctoPi is the most used and supported 3D printer management software available. Posted by: I want to print my first Product and for that I want use my Pi as Printserver.
