If this is a feature request describe it here

_REPLACE_THISFEATURE_REQUEST_DESCRIPTION_GOES_HERE

Version of Octolapse

Octolapse Version: 0.4.1

Version of OctoPrint

OctoPrint Version: 1.8.7 (via paukstelis installation script)

When you ran into the problem, did you have diagnostic logging enabled?

Diagnostic Logging was Enabled: YES

What were you doing when the problem occurred

1. Install Octolapse via OctoPrint Plugin Manager

What should have happened?

Octolapse should be installed without errors.

What happened instead?

The Octolapse installation throws some errors (complaining there is something deprecated and that a "wheel" could not be created). Installation finished, but Octolapse is unusable. I am not sure if it has something to do with this, but there is no remark ab out a "wheel" problem.

Solved with Alex McFadyen's fork (https://github.com/a-c-m/Octolapse). Just put the link "https://github.com/a-c-m/Octolapse/archive/refs/heads/master.zip" into the PluginManager's "... from URL" line and it installs like a charm and works great. Many thanks to Alex for that fix...

where is "... from URL" you refer to? can't find it, I'm using an updated octo4a installation.

@dl9sec Thank you, i was having trouble installing octolapse on my octo4a app as well. This solved it for me.

[FormerLurker]

All, this issue should be fixed with the latest release. You might not see it yet in the plugin manager. Please let me know if you continue to have problems, and SO SORRY for the delays!!!!!

Unfortunately no. The wheel for octolapse still cannot be build.

The last message is: DEPRECATION: Octolapse was installed using the legacy 'setup.py install' method, because a wheel could not be built for it. pip 23.1 will enforce this behaviour change. A possible replacement is to fix the wheel build issue reported above. Discussion can be found at https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/8368

It seems, that in setup.py the comma at the pillow dependency (between the versions) is still missing: plugin_requires = ["pillow >=6.2.0<7.0.0", "sarge", "six", "OctoPrint>1.3.8", "psutil", "file_read_backwards", "setuptools>=6.0", "awesome-slugify>=1.6.5,<1.7"]

Need more log infos?

Thanks a lot! I managed to install this way. I did get a bunch of errors but the installation of the fork ended up successfully. I ran many tests and octolapse works great now!

[KlutchKyle]

Still having problems installing due to Pillow versioning.

[FormerLurker]

I will add the comma and will let you know when I push it.

[dl9sec]

That would be great, thanks :-)

So, there was a bit more work to do in order to get Pillow working. The versions listed weren't 100% compatible with Python 11, and the import has changed. I bumped the requirements to Pillow >= 9.3, <11 (see this link), added imports for both namespaces (pil and PIL). I have tested this in Python 3.9.2 (latest octopi) and Python 3.11.2 (windows). So far so good.

like so:

Please let me know what kind of system you are installing this on (raspberry pi running OctoPi, Windows, Ubuntu, etc...). Just helps me feel confident putting this on the main branch later.

Thanks!

Great stuff, thank you very much! Installation was running without problems on my Odroid-C2 with Armbian 23.02.2 (Jammy) and Python 3.10.6. Octolapse v0.4.3+u.d8b2b5b seems to work at least with all the settings stuff (didn't make a print and timelapse yet).

@dl9sec,

Glad to hear it's working!

Off topic - I have a question if you have a sec: How is your Odroid working for you? Many of my projects are suffering for a lack of affordable Raspberry Pis, and I've been looking for an alternative.

Also, fyi, I looked at your site, and learned that I lived close to you a long while ago (if you were there in 2002ish) during a year abroad at Stuttgart Uni. I visited again a few years back, and things changed a lot! Still a beautiful part of the country, and I look forward to visiting again!

MFG

"The world is a village" :-D Agree, beautiful area here.

The Odroid-C2 is working really great. It's a mature device, several years old, but is has a better performance than the (currently very expensive) RasPi 3B I used before. It runs an Armbiam OS (the original Hardkernel OS lacks a bit of support and up-to-date kernel and OS). Sometimes it is a bit tricky to get that RasPi-oriented stuff working, but that's not a problem of the Odroid itself. So my personal conlusion is: If you get an up-to-date kernel/OS for an Odroid, it's a really good (maybe better and cheaper) alternative to the RasPi...
