pibooth-qr-server is a plugin for the pibooth application.

It adds an automatic server upload functionality that integrates with the pibooth-qrcode plugin to display the generated link as a QR code and uses the Pibooth Photo Server as a backend.

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your_username/pibooth-qr-server.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd pibooth-qr-server

3. Install the required dependencies:

   pip3 install -r requirements.txt

4. Install pibooth-qrcode if you haven't done so:

   pip3 install pibooth-qrcode

5. Deploy the Pibooth Photo Server and generate an access token:

   node server.js -k [Name of the token] [Expiration time in days]
   

Note: These sections should be automatically added to the pibooth.cfg upon running pibooth --configure once.

To use the Pibooth QR Server Plugin, you need to define the following parameters in the pibooth.cfg file under the [DOWNLOAD_SERVER] section:
Note: The URL should be defined without the last "/"

[DOWNLOAD_SERVER]
# Server URL to download the picture.
# Required by 'qr_server' plugin
server_url = <https://yourserver.example.net>

# Duration the image is available in hours for download.
# Required by 'qr_server' plugin
upload_available_hours = 24

# Token to authenticate the download server.
# Required by 'qr_server' plugin
token = <your token>

Additionally, you need to configure the prefix_url parameter under the [QRCODE] section in the pibooth.cfg file by changing it to {url}:

[QRCODE]
# URL which may be composed of variables: {picture}, {count}
# Required by 'qrcode' plugin
prefix_url = {url}

If pip can't install the plugin properly you can also import it as a path in the pibooth.cfg:

[GENERAL]
...

# Path to custom plugin(s) not installed with pip (list of quoted paths accepted)
plugins = /path/to/plugin/pibooth_qr_server.py
