It's basically to play a bit with a Raspberry Pi and e-Paper Displays and write some Python (it's the \"first thing\" I wrote in Python - Code is certainly far from perfect, but it works).\n\nPiAware is just serving as a Data Source as it's running at home and provided more value to me than Weather (I can look outside after all) or Bitcoin Price. Currently the Display is connected to a Raspberry Pi 3B, but plan is to move it to one of my Raspberry Pi 4 running Docker; thus a Docker image for `linux/arm64` and `linux/arm/v7` is built from this Repository.\n\nAs a bonus the following image is written with each refresh when running outside of Docker (it's what the Display shows as well):\n\n![status display](images/docs.jpg \"Status Display\")\n\n## Setup\n\nIn any case (Systemd vs. Docker) you'll need the repository cloned and your Raspberry Pi [to be setup](https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/2.7inch_e-Paper_HAT_Manual#Enable_SPI_Interface) to run properly with the Display.\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/hexa2k9/piaware-epaper.git /opt/piaware-epaper\n```\n\n### using Systemd\n\nThis probably needs some System Packages. I cannot really remember which ones might be required as it's been [a while](https://github.com/hexa2k9/piaware-epaper/commit/9f270ae9d4dc08d16e1c89b1a685c71022770e01) since I started this.\n\nSetup Python Virtualenv \u0026 Requirements\n\n```bash\ncd /opt/piaware-epaper\nvirtualenv .venv\n.venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt\n```\n\nInstall Systemd Unit\n\n```bash\ncd /opt/piaware-epaper\ncp piaware-epaper.service /etc/systemd/system\nsystemctl daemon-reload\nsystemctl enable piaware-epaper.service\n```\n\nInstall \u0026 Adjust Configuration\n\n```bash\ncd /opt/piaware-epaper\ncp piaware-epaper.default.dist /etc/default/piaware-epaper\n\n## Adjust as needed\nvim /etc/default/piaware-epaper\n```\n\nStart Service\n\n```bash\nsystemctl start piaware-epaper.service\n```\n\n### using Docker\n\n```bash\ncd /opt/piaware-epaper\ncp docker-compose.override.yaml.dist docker-compose.override.yaml\n\n# Adjust as needed\nvim docker-compose.override.yaml\n\ndocker compose up -d\n```\n\n## Display Buttons\n\n| Button   | Function           |\n|----------|--------------------|\n| `KEY1`   | Draw Display Black |\n| `KEY2`   | Draw Display White |\n| `KEY3`   | Refresh Status     |\n| `KEY4`   | Shutdown           |\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhexa2k9%2Fpiaware-epaper","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fhexa2k9%2Fpiaware-epaper","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fhexa2k9%2Fpiaware-epaper/lists"}
