The app grew a python-backend/ and a web/ frontend, so pi_musicmouse no longer matches it. Rework the role: - Install a pinned uv and build the venv with Python 3.13; Raspbian Bookworm's python3 is 3.11 and the backend uses PEP 695 syntax. - pip install python-backend/ instead of a requirements.txt, and take the systemd unit straight from the checkout so it can't drift. - Build web/ on the control machine (no npm on the Pi) and rsync web/dist over. Chain the checkout -> install -> build -> sync -> restart steps through handlers so a run with no repo change does nothing. - Per-host config files (config-<host>.yml); the schema now differs between a host with a real mouse and a display-only one. - Version to deploy is per host (musicmouse_version), no default. Add pi_kiosk: autologin user running startx with Firefox in kiosk mode and no window manager, for a Pi with a monitor attached. Enabled by mediapi_has_monitor, defaulting off. Turn musicdolphin into a display-only instance: serial and audio simulated, driven entirely through the kiosk page. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# pi_kiosk
|
|
|
|
Turns a Pi with a monitor attached into a full-screen Firefox kiosk display, with no
|
|
window manager: an autologin console user runs `startx`, whose `.xinitrc` launches
|
|
Firefox in `--kiosk` mode pointed at `pi_kiosk_url` and relaunches it if it ever exits.
|
|
If X itself crashes, `.bash_profile` restarts it.
|
|
|
|
Vars:
|
|
|
|
- `pi_kiosk_user` (default `kiosk`) - the account that autologs into tty1.
|
|
- `pi_kiosk_url` (default `http://localhost:8080`) - what Firefox shows.
|
|
|
|
Meant to run alongside `pi_musicmouse` on the same host when it's serving the page
|
|
locally (the default `pi_kiosk_url`), gated in `mediapis.yml` by `mediapi_has_monitor`.
|
|
|
|
niri was considered instead of plain X/no-WM, but isn't packaged for Debian Bookworm
|
|
yet (no official apt package, only third-party `.deb`s or a from-source Rust build) -
|
|
revisit once it is.
