Raspberry pi image baker

========================

.. image:: https://readthedocs.org/projects/pibake/badge/?version=latest

   :target: http://pibake.readthedocs.io/en/latest/?badge=latest

   :alt: Documentation Status

This tool fetches the latest Raspberry PI images from the official

sources and keeps it in a local cache. You can then burn the image to SD

card from the cached copy.

Using the tool allows you to script PI installs using the latest images

and prevents unfortunate mishaps when writing it to the SD card.

All downloads are kept in local XDG specified cache directory,

``~/.cache/pibake`` by default.

New images have new names so old versions are kept until manually

deleted from the cache.

This means the images are always at hand and you can update your local

copies when and if required.
