My\napologies for the crude code, but there is some good and useful stuff in there\n:)\n\n## Screenshots\n\n![Playback](doc/images/playback.jpg)\n\n![Device List](doc/images/devices.jpg)\n\n![Rendered View](doc/images/render.jpg)\n\n## Installation\n\nNOTE: If `pixelproxy` is hosted in a private repository. You may need to\nconfigure Git (and Go) to download that repo over SSH so it can authenticate:\n\n```sh\ngit config --global url.\"git@bitbucket.org:\".insteadOf \"https://bitbucket.org/\"\n```\n\nSetup a Go environment and download:\n\n```sh\n# Setup a Go path (feel free to adjust):\nexport GOPATH=~/go\n\n# Update PATH to include Go's bin directory.\nexport PATH=${GOPATH}/bin:${PATH}\n\n# Download the source and dependencies (but do not install).\n#\n# This also initializes the submodule dependencies.\ngo get -u -t -d github.com/danjacques/pixelproxy/...\n```\n\n## Running from Source\n\nYou can run PixelProxy from source with the following command:\n\n```sh\n# CD into \"PixelProxy\" project directory.\ncd ${GOPATH}/src/github.com/danjacques/pixelproxy\n\n# Run the \"pixelproxy\" application.\ngo run github.com/danjacques/pixelproxy/cmd/pixelproxy/main.go\n```\n\nUse the `--help` flag to list help options. An example debugging command-line\nmight look like:\n\n```sh\n# Run the \"pixelproxy\" application with human-readable verbose logging.\ngo run ./cmd/pixelproxy/main.go \\\n    -vdebug --production=false --http_addr=0.0.0.0:8080\n```\n\nThis will run the PixelProxy server on your system, bound to port `8080`. It\ncan then be accessed by visiting: http://localhost:8080 .\n\n## Deployment\n\nPrior to deployment, you should bundle up the assets files into a binary\nfilesystem. This can be done by running:\n\n```sh\ngo generate github.com/danjacques/pixelproxy/assets\n```\n\nNow, produce a binary by running:\n\n```sh\ngo install github.com/danjacques/pixelproxy/cmd/...\n```\n\nThe binaries will be in `${GOPATH}/bin`!\n\n## Shutdown Support\n\nPixelProxy has the ability to allow the user to perform system actions. This is\nimplemented by directly executing shell commands. In order to have these actions\nwork as intended:\n\n*   The user must have the following commands available on `PATH`:\n    *   `sudo`\n    *   `shutdown`\n*   The user's `sudoers` config must allow no-password execution of the\n    `shutdown` command. This can be implemented adding an `/etc/sudoers`\n    configuration line:\n\n    ```\n    user_name ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /sbin/shutdown\n    ```\n\n## Resources\n\n*   Java (canonical): https://github.com/robot-head/PixelPusher-java\n*   Python: https://github.com/cagerton/pixelpie\n*   Node: https://github.com/TheThingSystem/node-pixelpusher\n*   C++: https://github.com/q-depot/Cinder-PixelPusher\n*   PixelPusher Server: https://github.com/hzeller/pixelpusher-server\n\n## TODO\n\n*   Instrument with [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) via\n    [Go client library](https://godoc.org/github.com/prometheus/client_golang).\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdanjacques%2Fpixelproxy","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fdanjacques%2Fpixelproxy","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdanjacques%2Fpixelproxy/lists"}
