WROLPi is a self-contained collection of software to help you survive the world Without Rule of Law.
|
|
|
|
WROLPi is intended to be run on a Raspberry Pi with an optional external drive attached. It serves up it's own Wi-Fi
|
|
network so that any user with a laptop/tablet/phone can connect and use the library created by the maintainer.

# Try WROLPi!
|
|
|
|
You can try out WROLPi by running the docker containers.
|
|
|
|
1. [Install docker-ce](https://docs.docker.com/install/linux/docker-ce/debian/) and
|
|
[docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/)
|
|
2. Copy the latest WROLPi code.
|
|
* `git clone https://github.com/lrnselfreliance/wrolpi.git`
|
|
3. Change directory into the code base.
|
|
* `cd wrolpi`
|
|
4. Initialize git submodules
|
|
* `git submodule update --init`
|
|
5. Build the containers.
|
|
* `docker-compose build --parallel`
|
|
6. Create volumes.
|
|
* `docker volume create --name=openstreetmap-data`
|
|
* `docker volume create --name=openstreetmap-rendered-tiles`
|
|
7. Initialize the database (SQLite in the media directory).
|
|
* `docker-compose run --rm api db upgrade`
|
|
8. Start the docker containers.
|
|
* `docker-compose up`
|
|
9. Browse to WROLPi.
|
|

|
More Docker documentation is available in [docker/README.md](docker/README.md)

# Install WROLPi
|
|
|
|
Full installation instructions are in [INSTALL.md](INSTALL.md). Pick the option that matches your hardware:
|
|
|
|
* **[WROLPi Portable (Live USB)](INSTALL.md#wrolpi-portable-live-usb)** — boot a complete WROLPi from a USB stick on any x86 PC or laptop. Nothing is installed to the computer; the first boot creates a persistence partition on the USB so your library, database, and configuration survive reboots.
|
|
* **[Debian 13](INSTALL.md#debian-13-install)** — install WROLPi onto an x86 PC or laptop.
|
|
* **[Raspberry Pi](INSTALL.md#raspberry-pi-install)** — install WROLPi onto a Raspberry Pi with an external drive.
|
|
* **[Docker](docker/README.md)** — run the WROLPi containers on an existing Linux host.

## Guiding Principals
|
|
|
|
1. Storage is cheaper than power.
|
|
2. Two is one, one is none.
|
|
3. Run silently.
|
|
4. Primary, secondary, tertiary.
|
|
5. Secure as a bookshelf in your home.
|
|
|
|
## Physical properties
|
|
|
|
1. A WROLPi instance should be capable of running with a minimal of hardware:
|
|
* Raspberry Pi
|
|
* SD card
|
|
* External USB hard drive
|
|
* Power supply and cables
|
|
* Wi-Fi USER device such as a phone, tablet, or laptop.
|
|
2. A WROLPi instance should consume a minimal amount of electricity during WROL event. It is expected power will be
|
|
scarce when WROLPi is needed most.
|
|
|
|
## User expectations
|
|
|
|
1. A WROLPi instance should be run and maintained by a person (MAINTAINER) with a moderate amount of Linux and Raspberry
|
|
Pi experience. It is expected that they should be able to do this using only the documentation on their WROLPi.
|
|
|
|
## Software properties and capabilities
|
|
|
|
1. A WROLPi instance should be able to "factory-reset" itself without any outside services.
|
|
2. WROLPi should function completely without any internet services.
|
|
3. A user should have easy access to their data if WROLPi fails:
|
|
* For example, a user can watch their videos by navigating a short and intuitive directory structure and opening the
|
|
video in their preferred video player.
|
|
4. WROLPi should be self-documented. The UI should contain a tutorial for USERS as well as the MAINTAINER.
|
|
* If the UI isn't functional, the code should be documented such that a user can restore functionality.
|
|
5. WROLPi should favor pre-processing, rather than processing during a WROL event. Such as re-encoding a video, or
|
|
processing captions. This is to ensure that when a user adds content during non-WROL time, the processing for optimum
|
|
performance is already done for a WROL event.
