### install
```bash
git clone git@github.com:5shekel/madpeset.git && cd madpeset
git submodule update --init --recursive

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install pillow==9.5.0 brother_ql

to get the camera working, you need to install the drivers for the camera. I used the [official guide](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/camera.md) to install the drivers.

if you use a webcam try
```bash
sudo apt install fswebcam
```

### run
```bash
python txt.py
```
i usually add a tmux session to `~/.bashrc` to run the script on startup


test printer
```py
brother_ql -b pyusb -m QL-550 -p usb://0x04f9:0x2016 print -l 62 pefectFake.jpg --dither
```
