CUPS as a add-on

[yousaf465]

Thanks for the excellent add-ons. CUPS as an add-on has been requested by many home assistant users. I think @MaxWinterstein can solve this issue. here is some relevant discussion https://github.com/hassio-addons/repository/discussions/248#discussioncomment-2454543 https://github.com/ncarr/addon-repository

Having some old labelprinter laying around, this is on my wishlist :)

Whats the matter with the one from @ncarr? Does it miss something?

it is not working for me and a few other users. Here is a screenshot of it

[MaxWinterstein]

yeah, seems kinda buggy. Might have a look at this one day, but no promises ✌️

Did you check https://github.com/hassio-addons/repository/discussions/248#discussioncomment-4326731 - seems like someone fixed the existing one?

I am running HA on RPi4.

I see. Tried to install, failed.

Had a quick play with another repo: https://github.com/Luk164/addon-repository

Works with minimal adjustments, but not sure about the Avahi / Multicast DNS stuff. Need to have a second look later on.

[yousaf465]

[yousaf465]

finally worked correct repository, and restart fixed it.

I spoke too soon

s6-overlay-suexec: fatal: can only run as pid 1

[MaxWinterstein]

I just added my running version to this repository.

Far away from perfect, but should work.

[yousaf465]

Atleast Url is working

you need to type "https://192.168.x.x:631" in the address bar to access the page

x86 here, CUPS not accessible by direct IP

EDIT: I turned OFF SSL in the add-on config, and now it works, over HTTPS...?

Will close this as the add-on was added - and improved over the time.
