klipper4a (chroot install script)

this script is for easy install kilpper gui (fluidd or Mainsail) for android based on alpine-klipper

requirements

  • phone (rooted)
  • sd card
  • custiom kernel (sometimes if not support by serial drivers)
  • chroot (I recomend linuxdeploy)
  • otg cable or usb hub

set linuxdeploy

  • select distribution (alpine)
  • Distribution suite (last-stable[if you want compile kilpper on a phone])
  • set password
  • enable ssh if you use debian set image size in the settings menu
  • check Lock wifi
  • check Wake lock
  • in top right corner menu click install

login to ssh

sudo apk add bash curl #if you use alpine
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Zlywilk/klipper4a/master/moonraker-android.sh
  • edit script using your favorite editor to add printer config (if you want nano use "sudo apk add nano")
  • set serial to "$SERIAL"
  • run script
bash moonraker-android.sh

after reboot

  • start conteiner and run script
./start.sh

Future features

  • write script for auto update if serial is changed
  • add update support for alpine in moonraker
  • write debian script
  • write native app for android

camera support

if you have existing installation edit file /etc/nginx/http.d/default.conf (alipine) change from

listen 8080 default_server;

to

listen 8085 default_server;

and add to start.sh line after #!/bin/bash

sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8085

now you can vist gui at port 80

accelerometer

if you use accelerometer set line 237

and after evry restart run command

sudo chown -R "$USER":"$USER" /dev/ACM0 #your path to device

method 1(use low resources but sometimes brake stream)

method 2

if you run fresh install you must remeber run camera in backgraund otherwise you don't get install promt

FAQ

Q: why root?

A: there is one method (proot) which you can run linux on android whitout root but doesn't support mmap which is essential to run moonraker
