Since the relative path feature searches for the Calendar folder, after updating it will lead to errors (i.e. 2 folder named Calendar). To overcome this error, during updating, the old Calendar folder will be renamed to 'Calendar-old'
Added options to select what to display at each section (top, middle, bottom). Removed option 'additional feature' as it has been replaced by the sections. Added alt-attribute to image and title within head element. Added some expandable info buttons above sections that could require a more detailed description.
Changed reference-table according to the new settings.py file. Added note about shifting the info from the settings.py reference table form the README to the Installer
Users can now choose what they want to display at each section. For now, the middle_section can be set to either Agenda or Calendar. The bottom_section may be kept empty.
Added dictionary containing the positions of the rows for the Agenda-View.
Added a second seperator (seperator2) which is used by the Agenda View.
Added support for relative path instead of explicit path (Credit to Max. G.)
E-Paper is now split into three sections: top, main and bottom. Users can now choose what to display at which section. With this change, the main script will only execute the code required to generate the user-specified design. Better text handling. Text is automatically aligned in the middle of the specified box (unless specified otherwise) using the default font (unless specified otherwise). Added Agenda-View as an option in the main section, which will show upcoming events and times in the next few days. It's length is adaptive. If the bottom section is empty, it will reach to the bottom, otherwise it will reach to the bottom section. RSS-feeds will not show the titles, but rather a short summary (for more detailed information). Removed some import warnings as they are handled by the new installer (v1.6). Also made the code a bit cleaner and added a few more descriptions above some code sections.
This part copies user-defined data from their modified settings.py file and replaces the fetched content with the placeholders in the settings.py template
This template is generated by the web-ui using the standard values for each setting. Now, both the template (this file) and the generated settings.py fiel from the web-ui will yield the same results.
The installer now has version v1.6 and contains some optimisations during installation and updating. When selecting the update or install option in the installer, it will ask whether or not you want to update the system. Dependencies will be installed when selecting the update or install option. This helps reduce the updating time, fixes problems with missing dependencies and makes the installation process a bit faster. Also added the option to 'update-anyway' when selecting the update option which bypasses the check for the configuration file in the Calendar folder. Apart from that, some important information will be displayed with a small delay on the Terminal instead of all at once. Lastly, colours have been added on some output lines. This version of the installer has been tested on a Raspberry Pi Zero W running on Raspbian Lite form April 2019.
Previously, the installer would only install dependencies when choosing the install option. The installer will install dependencies when updating as well. The installer will now ask before attempting to update the operating system when choosing the updating/installing option. When installing/updating, only those dependencies will be installed, which are missing on the system. This check is done by test-importing the module in python3. If it's not found, it's installed.
