Redeem is the Replicape firmware; it is a daemon process that chews G-codes and spits out coordinates. The software can be found in the redeem repository: https://github.com/intelligent-agent/redeem
Architecture
Most of Redeem is written in Python, with the exception of the most heavily used gcode commands: G0/G1. These have been optimized in C. This allows rapid development of new features which are infrequently run -- such as bed leveling -- using python's scripting language capabilities of garbage collection and extensive libraries
Installation
The recommended method for installation is to use the Umikaze image which includes operating system, redeem, octoprint and all the dependencies needed.
from Package
If you'd rather install the Redeem firmware on your own operating system, you can use the Debian repository packages for Replicape and Toggle:
wget -O - http://kamikaze.thing-printer.com/apt/public.gpg | apt-key add -
echo "deb http://kamikaze.thing-printer.com/apt ./" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
from Source
enable kernel repo: http://repos.rcn-ee.com/(debian%7Cubuntu)
apt-get install am335x-pru-package pru-software-support-package swig python-smbus
mkdir -p /usr/src
cd /usr/src
git clone https://github.com/intelligent-agent/redeem.git
cd redeem
make install
mkdir -p /etc/redeem
cp configs/* /etc/redeem
cp data/* /etc/redeem
Updating
.. versionadded:: 2.0.5
The octoprint_redeem plugin should provide a prompt when there is a redeem update available, and the wizard should work in almost all cases. If it doesn't, or if you prefer knowing the gritty details of how to do this by hand, here are the manual instructions:
login as root and execute these commands:
cd /usr/src/redeem
git pull
python setup.py clean install
cp configs/* /etc/redeem
systemctl restart redeem
Develop branch
If your printer suffers from problems that are being addressed or if you want to help test the next version of redeem, you need to switch your installation to the develop branch of Redeem. **Beware: there be bugs and dragons in this code!**
To do so, follow these instructions:
cd /usr/src
rm -r redeem
git clone https://github.com/intelligent-agent/redeem.git
cd redeem
git checkout develop
make clean install
systemctl restart redeem
