For documentation on building custom plugins, see [Building InkyPi Plugins](./docs/building_plugins.md). ## Hardware - Raspberry Pi (4 | 3 | Zero 2 W) - Recommended to get 40 pin Pre Soldered Header - MicroSD Card (min 8 GB) - E-Ink Display: Inky Impression from Pimoroni, available in 3 sizes (affiliate links) - **[7.3 Inch Display](https://collabs.shop/q2jmza)** - **[5.7 Inch Display](https://collabs.shop/ns6m6m)** - **[4 Inch Display](https://collabs.shop/cpwtbh)** - Picture Frame or 3D Stand - See [community.md](./docs/community.md) for 3D models, custom builds, and other submissions from the community ## Installation To install InkyPi, follow these steps: 1. Clone the repository: ```bash git clone https://github.com/fatihak/InkyPi.git ``` 2. Navigate to the project directory: ```bash cd InkyPi ``` 3. Run the installation script with sudo: ```bash sudo bash install/install.sh ``` After the installation is complete, the script will prompt you to reboot your Raspberry Pi. Once rebooted, the display will update to show the InkyPi splash screen. Note: - The installation script requires sudo privileges to install and run the service. We recommend starting with a fresh installation of Raspberry Pi OS to avoid potential conflicts with existing software or configurations. - The installation process will automatically enable the required SPI and I2C interfaces on your Raspberry Pi. For more details, including instructions on how to image your microSD with Raspberry Pi OS, refer to [installation.md](./docs/installation.md).
