Redeem Architecture

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.

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

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

.. versionchanged:: 2.0.5

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
