```

Add the following content (adjust paths as needed):

```ini
[Unit]
Description=Bambusy Print Archive
After=network.target

[Service]

User=YOUR_USERNAME
WorkingDirectory=/home/YOUR_USERNAME/bambusy
Environment="PATH=/home/YOUR_USERNAME/bambusy/venv/bin"
ExecStart=/home/YOUR_USERNAME/bambusy/venv/bin/uvicorn backend.app.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
Restart=always
RestartSec=10

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
```

Enable and start the service:

```bash
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable bambusy
sudo systemctl start bambusy

# Check status
sudo systemctl status bambusy

# View logs
sudo journalctl -u bambusy -f
```

### Running with Docker (Coming Soon)

```bash
docker run -d \
  --name bambusy \
  -p 8000:8000 \
  -v bambusy_data:/app/data \
  -v bambusy_archive:/app/archive \
  maziggy/bambusy:latest
```

### Updating Bambusy

```bash
cd bambusy
git pull origin main

# Activate virtual environment
source venv/bin/activate  # Linux/macOS
# or: .\venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1  # Windows PowerShell

# Update dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Rebuild frontend (if needed)
cd frontend
npm install
npm run build
cd ..

# Restart the application
```

## Configuration

### Enabling LAN Mode on Your Printer

To connect Bambusy to your printer, you need to enable LAN Mode:

1. On your printer, go to **Settings** > **Network** > **LAN Mode**
2. Enable **LAN Mode** (this requires Developer Mode to be enabled first)
3. Note down the **Access Code** displayed
4. Find your printer's **IP Address** in network settings
5. Find your printer's **Serial Number** in device info

### Adding a Printer in Bambusy

1. Go to the **Printers** page
2. Click **Add Printer**
3. Enter:
   - **Name**: A friendly name for your printer
   - **IP Address**: Your printer's local IP
   - **Access Code**: The code from LAN Mode settings
   - **Serial Number**: Your printer's serial number
4. Click **Save**

The printer should connect automatically and show real-time status.

## Usage

### Keyboard Shortcuts

| Key | Action |
|-----|--------|
| `1` | Go to Printers |
| `2` | Go to Archives |
| `3` | Go to Statistics |
| `4` | Go to Cloud Profiles |
| `5` | Go to Settings |
| `?` | Show keyboard shortcuts |

### Dashboard Widgets

The statistics dashboard features draggable, resizable widgets:
- **Drag** widgets by the grip handle to reorder
- **Resize** widgets by clicking the resize icon (cycles through 1/4, 1/2, full width)
- **Hide** widgets by clicking the eye icon
- **Reset** layout using the Reset Layout button

Your layout preferences are saved automatically.

### Archiving Prints

Prints are automatically archived when they complete. You can also:
- Manually add photos to any archive
- Add failure analysis notes for failed prints
- Re-print any archived 3MF to a connected printer
- Export archives for backup

### Project Page

3MF files downloaded from MakerWorld contain embedded project pages with model information. To view:
1. Right-click any archive in the Archives page
2. Select "Project Page" from the context menu
3. View title, description, designer info, license, and images
4. Click "Edit" to modify the project page metadata
5. Changes are saved directly to the 3MF file

## Tech Stack

- **Backend**: Python / FastAPI
- **Frontend**: React / TypeScript / Tailwind CSS
- **Database**: SQLite
- **3D Viewer**: Three.js
- **Printer Communication**: MQTT (TLS) + FTPS

- ReDoc: http://localhost:8000/redoc

## Contributing

Contributions are welcome! Please feel free to submit a Pull Request.

1. Fork the repository
2. Create your feature branch (`git checkout -b feature/AmazingFeature`)
3. Commit your changes (`git commit -m 'Add some AmazingFeature'`)
4. Push to the branch (`git push origin feature/AmazingFeature`)
5. Open a Pull Request

## Troubleshooting

### Printer won't connect

1. **Check LAN Mode is enabled** on your printer (Settings > Network > LAN Mode)
2. **Verify the Access Code** - it changes when you toggle LAN Mode
3. **Check network connectivity** - printer and server must be on the same network
4. **Firewall issues** - ensure ports 8883 (MQTT) and 990 (FTPS) are not blocked
5. **Correct Serial Number** - find it in printer settings under Device Info

### "Connection refused" errors

- The printer may be in sleep mode - wake it up and try again
- Check if another application is connected (only one MQTT connection allowed)
- Restart the printer if issues persist

### 3MF files not archiving automatically

- Ensure the printer is connected (green status indicator)
- Check that the print completed successfully
- Look at the server logs for any error messages

### Frontend not loading

- Make sure you built the frontend: `cd frontend && npm run build`
- Check that the `/static` folder contains `index.html` and `/assets`
- Clear browser cache and hard refresh (Ctrl+Shift+R)

### Database errors

The SQLite database (`bambusy.db`) is created automatically. If you encounter issues:

```bash
# Backup and reset database
mv bambusy.db bambusy.db.backup
# Restart the application - a new database will be created
```

### View server logs

```bash
# If running directly
uvicorn backend.app.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --log-level debug

# If running as systemd service
sudo journalctl -u bambusy -f
```
