## 🚀 Quick Start

### Requirements
- Python 3.10+ (3.11/3.12 recommended)
- Bambu Lab printer with **LAN Mode** enabled
- Same local network as printer

### Installation

#### Docker (Recommended)

**Option A: Pre-built image (fastest)**
```bash
mkdir bambuddy && cd bambuddy
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/maziggy/bambuddy/main/docker-compose.yml
docker compose up -d
```

**Option B: Build from source**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/maziggy/bambuddy.git
cd bambuddy
docker compose up -d --build
```

Open **http://localhost:8000** in your browser.

> **Multi-architecture support:** Pre-built images are available for `linux/amd64` and `linux/arm64` (Raspberry Pi 4/5).

> **macOS/Windows users:** Docker Desktop doesn't support `network_mode: host`. Edit docker-compose.yml: comment out `network_mode: host` and uncomment the `ports:` section. Printer discovery won't work - add printers manually by IP.

<details>
<summary><strong>Docker Configuration & Commands</strong></summary>

**Environment Variables:**

| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `TZ` | `UTC` | Your timezone (e.g., `America/New_York`, `Europe/Berlin`) |
| `DEBUG` | `false` | Enable debug logging |
| `LOG_LEVEL` | `INFO` | Log level: `DEBUG`, `INFO`, `WARNING`, `ERROR` |

**Data Persistence:**

| Volume | Purpose |
|--------|---------|
| `bambuddy.db` | SQLite database with all your print data |
| `archive/` | Archived 3MF files and thumbnails |
| `logs/` | Application logs |

**Updating:**

```bash
# Pre-built image: just pull the latest
docker compose pull && docker compose up -d

# From source: rebuild after pulling changes
cd bambuddy && git pull && docker compose up -d --build
```

**Useful Commands:**

```bash
# View logs
docker compose logs -f

# Stop/Start
docker compose down
docker compose up -d

# Shell access
docker compose exec bambuddy /bin/bash
```

**Custom Port:**

```yaml
ports:
  - "3000:8000"  # Access on port 3000
```

**Reverse Proxy (Nginx):**

```nginx
server {
    listen 443 ssl http2;
    server_name bambuddy.yourdomain.com;

    ssl_certificate /path/to/cert.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /path/to/key.pem;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:8000;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
        proxy_read_timeout 86400;
    }
}
```

> **Note:** WebSocket support is required for real-time printer updates.

**Network Mode Host** (required for printer discovery and camera streaming):

```yaml
services:
  bambuddy:
    build: .
    network_mode: host
```

> **Note:** Docker's default bridge networking cannot receive SSDP multicast packets for automatic printer discovery. When using `network_mode: host`, Bambuddy can discover printers via subnet scanning - enter your network range (e.g., `192.168.1.0/24`) in the Add Printer dialog.

</details>

#### Manual Installation

```bash
# Clone and setup
git clone https://github.com/maziggy/bambuddy.git
cd bambuddy
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Run
uvicorn backend.app.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
```

Open **http://localhost:8000** and add your printer!

> **Need detailed instructions?** See the [Installation Guide](http://wiki.bambuddy.cool/getting-started/installation/)

### Enabling LAN Mode

1. On printer: **Settings** → **Network** → **LAN Mode**
2. Enable LAN Mode and note the **Access Code**
3. Find IP address in network settings
4. Find Serial Number in device info
