//////////////////////////////

UPDATE: 04/17/2011 -The project now comes with buidout scripts for easier deployment : no need to have the dependencies installed: here is how you can setup and run Doboz-Web using buildout: -check out the code from github in command line :

• navigate to the directory you just checked out the code into
• type python bootstrap.py (Optionally you can do pythonVERSIONNUM bootstrap.py : ie i use python2.6 bootstrap.py)
• type bin/buildout : here you will see buildout getting all the project dependencies and setting up an isolated python environment DONE! To run the project , just type , at the same place: bin/dobozweb

Configuration:

• To change the serial speed and the adapted driver for your firmware, change the speed and driver lines in the config.cfg file in the "Reprap" section: the only tested driver so far is Teacup, fived might work (feedbakc appreciated, as it does not respond with my reprap's motherboard)
• To change the webserver (wsgiref or tornado) , just change the ServerType in the config.cfg file in the "WebServer" section
• To enable/disable webcam use : Change "use:False" (False or True must start with uppercase , as per python syntax) in the config.cfg file in the "Webcam" section

Depencies:

• For now only tested with python 2.6
• You will need to have pySerial installed (normally deployed using the buildout method above)
• You will also need pyParsing (normally deployed using the buildout method above)
• for webcam support , pygst is required too
• to generate docs, sphinx and all its dependencies are required
• By default , the web server is now set to use wsgiref (no external dependency required) : to change that , just change the ServerType in the config.cfg file in the "WebServer" section to any other web server supported by Bottle (preferably Tornado for now)
