A 3D printable frame for a 7.5" e-ink display and a website to control its content.

Upload images via the website's calendar interface. Choose one image for each day.

👉 Website Demo

• 7.5" WaveShare e-ink display
• Raspberry Pi 3B+ with power supply and WiFi connection
• 3D printer
• A server for the website
• Four screws to attach the Pi to the frame (head diameter: 5mm, thread diameter: 3mm, length: 5mm)

Start the server with Docker and mount a directory to store the images in:

docker run -d -p 80:1313 -v /your-inkday-data:/data ghcr.io/jflessau/inkday:latest

Images will be resized to fit the frame (800x480 px).

1. Create a new directory on your Pi
2. Put ./frame/frame.py and ./frame/default.jpg into it.
3. Download this repo and put its RaspberryPi_JetsonNano/python/lib directory and all its contents next to frame.py and default.jpg.
4. Set the environment variable SERVER_URL to the URL of the server (e.g., http://localhost:80) and run python3 frame.py.

Your Pi should fetch images from the server and display them on the e-ink display.
If there is no image for the current day, the default image will be displayed.

Print ./frame/inkday-frame.stl (only one piece; supports are optional).

1. Slide the screen into the frame with its cable pointing down.
2. Connect the screen's cable to the driver.
3. Attach the Pi to the frame with 4 screws.
4. Connect the driver to the Pi.
5. Connect the Pi to a power source.
