KiloBitBot function of buttons

[donbing]

Thanks @uududde, glad it's working well for you (altho, what was the problem with the image based install?)

Currently, the button mappings are as follows (these did work on an inky impression), I'll give it a test to see if it's broken somehow.

5: self.toggle_picure_frame_mode,
6: self.refresh_display,
16: self.toggle_volume,
24: self.toggle_extended_view,

The config webserver has to be started as a separate python app.

Add cron jobs to start the app and config-server after reboot

(crontab -l 2>/dev/null; echo "@reboot sleep 30 && cd /home/pi/bitbot && python3 run.py") | crontab -
(crontab -l 2>/dev/null; echo "@reboot sleep 30 && cd /home/pi/bitbot && python3 src/config_webserver.py") | crontab -

@uududde the buttons are working on my 5.6" impression when using the main branch.

@donbing cool, I didn't know they were already implemented... so my idea of button three changing the style is even almost the same option you came up with.

I guess I should've watched syslog in the first place when trying out the buttons. Button 1 delivers an error, button 3 does not do anything (mybe broken), button 2 & 4 work as expected.

Button 1 gives me:

[CRITICAL] root: Uncaught exception
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/pi/bitbot/src/buttons.py", line 25, in <lambda>
    lambda pin: self.BUTTONS[pin](),
  File "/home/pi/bitbot/src/configuration/log_decorator.py", line 12, in wrapper
    result = func(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/home/pi/bitbot/src/buttons.py", line 34, in toggle_picure_frame_mode
    self.config.toggle_photo_mode(newstate)
TypeError: toggle_photo_mode() missing 1 required positional argument: 'cycle_state'

The problem with the image method was that directly after flashing even though delivering wpa data in the specific file and activating ssh via file before first boot the pi zero would not connect to the wifi.

Thanks I didn't see that the config server should be started by itself. Log says it's running but browser doesn't open it.

The cycle_state error should now be fixed in main. I'm pretty sure that I've broken the refresh button by checking for config changes before updating the screen. That's going to be a bit fiddly to fix, so I might go with your suggestion of switching between currencies instead, thanks!

I've a feeling that the disk image doesn't support wpa_supplicant, it's based on comitup. it starts it's own hotspot allowing you to configure the WiFi from your phone/laptop, I'll check

The cycle_state error is gone... now I receive:

@uududde thanks for the error report, the branch called photo_button_fail introduces currency cycling instead.. I've not had time to test it yet, but i'll merge it into main once i have
