# HTTPrint
|
|
|
|
A very simple web interface to upload and print files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Install and run
|
|
|
|
Dependencies:
|
|
* Python 3
|
|
* **pdfinfo** executable; usually found in the **poppler-utils** package
|
|
|
|
|
|
To install it:
|
|
``` bash
|
|
wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py
|
|
sudo python3 get-pip.py
|
|
# if you want to install these modules for an unprivileged user, add --user and remove "sudo";
|
|
# if you want to upgrade the versions already present in the system, also add --upgrade
|
|
sudo pip3 install tornado
|
|
git clone https://github.com/alberanid/httprint
|
|
cd httprint
|
|
./httprint.py --debug
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now you can **point your browser to [http://localhost:7777/](http://localhost:7777/)**
|
|
|
|
You can also **run the server in https**, putting in the *ssl* directory two files named *httprint_key.pem* and *httprint_cert.pem*
|
|
|
|
By default:
|
|
|
|
* the **--print-with-code** argument is true, and the uploaded files are just scheduled for priting. To actually print them, you should supply the generated code, for example: `curl -X POST http://localhost:7777/api/print/1234`
|
|
* **--max-pages** is set to 10, limiting the number of allowed copies
|
|
* **--pdf-only** is true, meaning that only PDF files are allowed
|
|
* **--check-pdf-pages** is true, and the number of pages of a PDF are taken into consideration, calculating the maximum number of pages to print
