DuetLapse3

stuartofmt

This is a modified version of the original DuetLapse created by Danal Estes.
The bulk of the functionality is his and we all should remember him for his generous work

It's been sufficiently modified that I believe a new version is warranted. Doing so will make it easier to track and respond to changes. Note that this version is only for RRF3.

###Version 3.0.0###

[1] Removal of dependency on DuetWebAPI.py (by Danal Estes). DuetLapse3.py is a standalone Python3 script.
[2] Added support for 2 cameras
[3] Reorganized Directory Structure to allow logical separation of files (by printer)
[4] Added configurable base directory
[5] Added logfile support
[6] Added verbose option
[7] Added control over multiple instances
[8] Added ability to gracefully terminate when executing in background
[9] Added ability to extend the video duration of the last image
[10] Generalized capture with Camera type "other" and arbitrary capture commands
[11] Generalized video creation with optional commands

###Version 3.0.3###

[1] Added support for SBC BUT cannot support -pause yes or -detect pause. Will be added soon.

###Version 3.0.4###

[1] All functionality supported for SBC
[2] More robust error handling
[3] Improvements to pause logic and confirmation of printer head position during pause image capture.

###Version 3.1.0###

[1] Added support for Windows
[2] Added automatic detection of operating system (Linux or Windows)
[3] Added integrated http listener for basic browser based control
[4] Changed file naming convention to make filenames unique if multiple instances of DuetLapse3 are running.

###Version 3.1.1###

[1] if -extratime not specified (default 0) will use ffmpeg syntax compatible with version < 4.2 (4.1.6 tested)

###Version 3.2.0###

[1] Adds the ability to work with startDuetLapse3. See the description here:
https://github.com/stuartofmt/DuetLapse3/blob/main/startDuetLapse3.md
In summary startDuetLapse3 provides the ability to remotely start / stop DuetLapse3.
[2] Changed the shutdown method to reduce low level 'noise' messages.
[3] Restructured to provide better efficiency. Typically less than 1% CPU when idle.
[4] Fixed a bug that was introduced in the prior version (not detecting layer changes)
[5] Made further improvements to the handling of pauses.
There are some edge cases where a printer can get stuck in a paused state.
The documentation has been updated. See especially -dontwait
[6]Added checks to prevent startup with ports that are already in use.

###Version 3.2.2###

[1] Added resilience to lost connectivity with Duet. If disconnected the issue will be reported and attempts to reconnect will be made
[2] Made some cosmetic changes to the http responses. Most now include the local time as part of the response.
[3] The status page will automatically refresh every 60 seconds. Other pages will show the last time they were invoked.
[4]Similar changes to [2] and [3] made to startDuetLapse

###Version 3.2.3###

[1] Fixed some inconsistencies when running on Windows due to slightly different behavior of python3.

###Version 3.3.0###
[1] Made significant changes to the browser UI for both DuetLapse3 and startDuetLapse3. Both now provide buttons for easier navigation.
[2] Added an option for startDuetLapse3 to accept default start (-args) for starting DuetLapse3.

If you provide -args, special care needs to be made in formatting it correctly. See the documentation in github. Especially note
[1] double quote characters around the entire -args options list
[2] the use of

&quot;  and &apos;

for all other double or single quotes inside the outer quotes used for the -args options list.

###Version 3.4.0###
[1] Completely revised the directory and file-naming structure to facilitate many-to-many relationships between computers running DuetLapse3, Duet Printers and multiple instances of DuetLapse3.
[2] Changed how http terminate requests were handled for better cross platform compatibility.
[3] Added the ability to navigate the directory structure from a browser (new button). Also in startDuetLapse3.
[4] Added three new options: -keeplogs, -deletepics and -novideo
[5] Made some cosmetic changes to the html pages.

###Version 3.4.1###
Changes to DuetLapse3
[1] Changed the browser UI to a single page layout.
[2] The file function is restricted to the specific instance.
[3] File functions expanded to allow deletion of video files. startDuetLapse3 has more options.
[4] If using -detect layer capture starts on layer 0 (previously was layer 1).
[5] An additional image is captured immediately before a video is created, independent of other settings.
[6] If the version of ffmpeg does not support -extratime it is ignored.

Changes to startDuetLapse3
[1] Changed the browser UI to a single page layout.
[2] Added an optional argument (-topdir) to set the top level directory for file functions. If used - this would normally be set the same as DuetLapse or at the "duetip" level
[3] File functions expanded to allow delete and zip. This is "conservative" - will not allow deletion of files / directories of running instances. Can only zip directories.

###Version 3.4.2###
Changes to DuetLapse3
-[1] Added a new options: -keepfiles to prevent file deletion on startup and shutdown.
-[2] Terminate (from the UI) now offers two options: Graceful and Forces. Graceful is the same as in prior versions. Forced does a quick shutdown with no image capture.
-[3] Added an optional argument (-maxffmpeg) that limits the number of concurrent ffmpeg instances. Ffmpgeg can fail due to lack of resources - the default is 2 instances.
Note that this only applies to video creation. Image capture, because it is transient, is not limited.

Changes to startDuetLapse3
[1] Can now delete empty directories (provided they are not in use). This allows a complete cleanup of the directory tree.
[2] Added file function to create a Video on directories containing jpeg files (provided they are not in use).
[3] Added an optional argument (-maxffmpeg) that limits the number of concurrent ffmpeg instances. Ffmpgeg can fail due to lack of resources - the default is 2 instances.
Note that this only applies to video creation.

Code / Detailed Instructions / Documentation are here:

https://github.com/stuartofmt/DuetLapse3

Note that there are some minor changes to the naming and use of options from the original version. Note especially the ffmpeg version requirements.

Please post suggestions for improvement in this forum, not in the github. That way we get the wider, interested audience.

@stuartofmt I am running the LPC SBC Port of RRF. But i can not connect to my Pi.
here is my Object Model
alt text

192.168.140.126
192.168.140.126 The printer at 192.168.140.126 did not respond
192.168.140.126 Check the ip address or logical printer name is correct
192.168.140.126 Duet software version must be at RRF3 or above and suppotr rr_model

Best

jay_s_uk

@stuartofmt
The duet+SBC doesn't support the object model and uses machine/status instead.
The DuetWebAPI handled both methods of obtaining information.

stuartofmt

@PCR

Instructions on wget for download fixed. Thanks!

stuartofmt

@jay_s_uk

Let me take a look at the SBC situation (which I do not own). I was under the impression that /machine/status was replaced (to be?) by rr_model as the preferred method.

It may take me a few of days to figure out.

jay_s_uk

@stuartofmt its the other way round.
rr_model is replaced by machine/status in SBC situations

stuartofmt

@jay_s_uk

OK - thx. It's not difficult but I will need some help testing.

jay_s_uk

@stuartofmt
i can provide a current 3.2 output from machine/status if needed.
i'm sure @PCR would do some testing for you

stuartofmt

@jay_s_uk

That would be very helpful (much better than closing my eyes and imagining) - thanks!

Could someone please try this? It's a test script for the SBC calls. It's read only with the exception of a M117 'Test of SBC' which should show up in DWC.

Once its placed in a directory permissions will need to be changed.

chmod +x ./SBCTEST.py

it can then be run with the following command

python3 ./SBCTEST.py -duet <ipaddress of your SBC printer>

with a bit of luck it will report success, in any case - if the resultant SBCTEST.log file can be posted back, that would be a great help.

I've tested it on my non SBC duet - there may be some syntax errors in the unexercised code - but I hope not
If there are then a screen shot would be helpful.

Can do it tomorrow! Thank you

@PCR @jay_s_uk

Thanks - there was a silly formatting error (now fixed) but underlying that it looks like there was an http 405 error returned.

I've added a two more version of the send gcode function to try - hopefully one of them works. Unfortunately the documentation and other examples (which purport to work) are somewhat vague on this aspect ....

ALSO - if you are running RRF3.2 the default behavior for CORS seems to have changed. With another program I am using (DueUI) - I had to add the following to config.sys (up front in the network section) - after the upgrade. BUT DuetLapse was unaffected. It MAY be different on SBC.

I'd suggest first trying "as is" but if this script still does not work with one of the methods (depending on what the errors are) - the CORS thing may need to be looked into.

M586 C"*"                                     ;enable CORS

New Test Script is here

Awesome Stuart, thanks for carrying on Danal's work

Looks well documented too, I'll give it a shot over the weekend.

Very neat of you to handle issues outside of your own setup too

Do you think in it's current state this could realistically be implemented as a plugin in DWC for a possible GUI?

stuartofmt

@fractalengineer

Thanks. As a plugin ? hmmm . I'll have to see what that means / entails. Let me put that as a priority 2 for right now.

Priority 1 is getting SSB working and tidying up some of the logic / behavior surrounding pauses. I did not test that aspect much and its somewhat ambiguous - so stay tuned ...

OK! Looks like V1 worked!! So you should have got a message on DWC saying "Test of SBC"

Did you see that ?

Ok - I'm going to have to get some help. The code I have seen elsewhere (including Danal's) does not work (or I've done something stupid). The one that reports success - does not seem to send the gcode .... go figure .....

So - this should work for SBC -- but not for using the pause capability (that's the only thing that sends gcodes). ~~Appreciate it if you could test before I update github~~

Hmm - wont let me upload the file to here. I'll update on github - if you would not mind downloading from there.
