manual update or 2nd manual for octopi image external database #171

Closed mister2212 closed 4 years ago

mister2212 commented 4 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. i think most of the people use the octopi image for octoprint. Is it possible to write a new or 2nd manual to use the external database when you have more printers? Because of the different file path. I can not do it with the normal instructions to get the external database up and running.

Describe the solution you'd like Make a new or 2nd manual with the new file paths for the octopi image.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I've tried several times with the wiki instructions and over google trying to find help but there is no manual for the paths in the octopi image

According to the README OctoPi is build upon Raspbian therefore the guide from the wiki should work. If you have questions regarding specifics of the image (.e.g. custom paths, etc.) you should ask there or in OctoPrint's support forum.

Because I don't use OctoPi I'm not going to make a separate guide covering the peculiarities of this image. But if someone has the motivation to make one I will publish it in the wiki.

Maybe i will try to make a complete new Installation of octoprint with the Wiki and hope that i works

i dont understand what i have to write here? My raspberry pi has the ip 192.168.188.44. which ip should i use here?

Then append the following line to /var/lib/postgres/data/pg_hba.conf

host octoprint_filamentmanager octoprint 192.168.178.0/24 md5 Adapt the IP address to your network, e.g. if your server has the IP 192.168.0.25 use 192.168.0.0/24 instead. This allows all clients in your network to access the database.
