Hackerspace printer web interface

This is a modified version of the "Method Draw" editor, which adds a simple Go backend to allow printing the edited image on a label printer using the lp command. A button in the editor sends a PNG to the backend, which then prints it. Additionally an option to add a QR code to the image is added.

Building

GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64 go build -o webinterface

Deploying

rsync ./webinterface [email protected]:./ --progress

Method Draw [ORIGINAL README]

Method Draw is a web based vector drawing application. The purpose of Method Draw is to provide a simple and easy-to-use SVG editor experience. It purposely removes some features such as layers and line-caps/corners in exchange for a more simple and pleasant experience. If you are looking for a more complete vector editing open-source solution, please check out SVG Edit.

Try Method Draw online.
