No way to access Keyring if you only use Web UI #17

Closed Snipercaine closed 7 years ago

Snipercaine commented 8 years ago

Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I only use the Web UI on my Octopi. I've read the other issues here about SMTP passwords but because I only use the web UI none of the solutions will work for me. I can't access the keyring and I can't use yagmail. I admit I'm not a programmer so there are things in the other issue discussions I do not understand.

Is there no other way for me to use the EmailNotifier if I only use the web to access my Octopi?

Ok. so I now know how to ssh into my "headless" octopi. I've tried installing yagmail but I still can't get my email and password into the keyring to be used by the EmailNotifier. Would someone please make a short "how-to" on this for us non-programmers? Please.

It was not obvious to me either. To be honest, at first I didn't realize yagmail was a Python package. But here's a short explanation:

Thanks. That did the trick.

  • SSH into your OctoPrint instance with the user running OctoPrint. With OctoPi, username is "pi" (see https://octopi.octoprint.org for the default password)
  • Load virtualenv: source ~/oprint/bin/activate
  • Install required packages: pip install keyrings.alt yagmail
  • Register your account: ~/oprint/bin/python -c "import yagmail; yagmail.register('myusername', 'mypassword')" (note: some e-mail providers require the full e-mail address, some don't)
  • Return to OctoPrint Web UI, navigate to "Settings", "Email Notifier" and fill-out the settings. Make sure that the value for "Username" matches the "myusername" value specified in the command above.
