info-beamer-package fuer den Infobildschirm im VSH

Basiert auf package-32c3-screens und sollte auf einem RPI2 laufen.

Installation/Running

Wir fahren das Package nicht auf info-beamer-hosted sondern mit info-beamer-pi auf einem standalone Pi2 Hierfuer muessen die Umgebungsvariablen fuer die Skripte gesetzt werden (v.A. NODE).

To add new images, just create new JPEG files prefixed with either img_ or ads_. Adding videos requires you to edit the playlist.json file. New content for the ticker can be added by editing scroll.txt.

Notes

  • During the conference I edited some of the module_* lua code and pushed updates to the PI. Code in node.lua monitors all lua files prefixed with module_ and reloads them every time they change.
  • During the conference I had a development PI connected to the PI 7" screen to test my changes before pushing them to "production". You can just setup multiple repositories on info-beamer hosted so you can just do git push info-beamer-test master.
  • This code doesn't use any child nodes for performance reasons. It's only using a single top level node. To make it more modular I wrote a small module that makes it easier to split code into logical parts. Have a look at node.lua for that.
