[OS Request] OctoPi

[guysoft]

Hey, I am the maintainer of OctoPi, and a few other distros since I am also the creator of CustomPiOS. So this is the first attempt our of expected several. I got a request to add OctoPi to rpi-imager on my issue tracker https://github.com/guysoft/OctoPi/issues/726

I can't see any docs on how to add an image. So I am copying more or less what I saw in #83

Note that it should go in the Other spesific purpose OS section.

{
    "os_list": [
        {
            "name": "OctoPi",
            "description": "A Raspberry Pi distribution for 3d printers. Ships OctoPrint out-of-the-box.",
            "icon": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/guysoft/OctoPi/devel/media/rpi-imager-OctoPi.png",
            "subitems_url": "http://unofficialpi.org/rpi-imager/rpi-imager-octopi.json"
        }
    ]
}

And the json file is in place: http://unofficialpi.org/rpi-imager/rpi-imager-octopi.json

Note: We are expecting next release to also include a 64bit builds which is already in the nightly. If there is a section to add in advance it might also be helpful

The icon needs to be 40x40 and the text needs to be limited to fit into the box. You can test it with rpi-imager by copying a local version of the global os_list_imagingutility.json and running it with the --repo command-line option:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Raspberry Pi Imager>rpi-imager.exe --repo os_list_imagingutility.json

Fixed json in the original request.

Here is how it looks.

Also I warmly recommend adding this to the README file in the repo, or to the wiki page on this githubl, otherwise I expect you will be repeating yourself.

Does the one image support all Raspberry Pi devices? In which case I'll probably add it without the submenu

[guysoft]

All current Raspberry Pi devices are supported in that image.

Ok, approved for adding, should appear sometime today...

[guysoft]

Looks like its there now, thanks!

I hope to automate the json stuff here now and also post other CustomPiOS popular distos.

@ghollingworth Hey, sorry to bug again, but @foosel has pointed out to me that the url should be HTTPS and not HTTP in order to avoid man-in-the-middle attacks.

So it should be:

{
    "os_list": [
        {
            "name": "OctoPi",
            "description": "A Raspberry Pi distribution for 3d printers. Ships OctoPrint out-of-the-box.",
            "icon": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/guysoft/OctoPi/devel/media/rpi-imager-OctoPi.png",
            "subitems_url": "https://unofficialpi.org/rpi-imager/rpi-imager-octopi.json"
        }
    ]
}```

Should be using HTTPS now.

Works, closing
