Changed config program to TP-Config, added Octo-Settings 
Changed "octo-config" to "tp-config" as "octo-config" was misleading.

Added octo-settings, a command line utility that can read and set
OctoPrint settings.

Added OctoPrint config menu, in which I added the ability to have
localhost autologin as a user in OctoPrint

Improved grammar and verbosity in some text dialogs

Added message to the end of first-time explaining how to configure
TouchPrint

TouchPrint

TouchPrint is a lightweight fork of Raspberry Pi OS whos purpose is to host OctoPrint and to display it on a connected screen. TouchPrint is very customizable, and both the GUI and/or OctoPrint can be disabled if you already have an existing setup to perform those tasks.

Requirements

Minimum:

  • Raspberry Pi 3
  • 8GB microSD card
  • Keyboard and video for first time setup

Recommended:

  • Raspberry Pi 4
  • 8GB Class 10 microSD card
  • Keyboard and video for first time setup

Quick Setup Guide

Flashing on Windows/Mac OS/Linux (Easy)

  1. Download and install balenaEtcher.
  2. Download the latest image from the releases section.
  3. Follow the on screen instructions in Etcher to burn the image to your microSD or USB drive.

Flashing in Mac OS/Linux/BSD (Recommended)

  1. Download the latest image from the releases section.

  2. Open a terminal and navigate to where you downloaded the image file.

  3. Ensure that xz is installed on your computer.

    OS Command
    Ubuntu/Debian apt install xz-utils
    Arch/Manjaro pacman -S xz
    Mac OS brew install xz

  4. Run xz -d -c IMAGE_NAME.img.xz | sudo dd of=/dev/sdX, replacing IMAGE_NAME and /dev/sdX with the appropriate paths, and adding flags per your preferences.

First Boot

  1. Connect an HDMI cable and a keyboard to your Raspberry Pi.
  2. Power on your Raspberry Pi and wait for it to boot.
  3. Once booted, you will be put into the first time setup, where you can configure networking, choose which services you want to run, etc.
  • Use the arrow keys to move the "cursor", Spacebar to toggle checkboxes, Tab to move the cursor between different sections, and Enter to continue.
  1. Once the first time setup is complete, the Raspberry Pi will reboot.

OctoPrint Setup

  • If the GUI is enabled, you can setup OctoPrint on the Raspberry Pi. You can also setup OctoPrint by opening up a web browser on another computer and navigating to https://RPI-IP, replacing RPI-IP with the IP address of your Raspberry Pi.
  • If MJPG-Streamer is enabled, you can put /webcam into the Stream URL box to enable it in OctoPrint.
  • If you wish to enable timelapses, the path to ffmpeg is /usr/bin/ffmpeg.

Accessing OctoPrint

  • If OctoPrint is enabled, you can access it at https://RPI-IP, replacing RPI-IP with the IP address of your Raspberry Pi.

Configuring TouchPrint

  • TouchPrint can be configured either over SSH or in a TTY using the tp-config script. This script is provided to make management of core features easier and to consolidate TouchPrint's settings into one place.
  • OctoPrint can be configured through the OctoPrint UI as normal.
