knittingtools

KnittingTools is a simple web app written in Python. It currently supports two main features:

A knitting calculator
A punchcard generator

Dependencies

Python 2.7.10
CairoSVG 1.0.22
svgwrite 1.1.8

Newer package versions may work, but have not been tested.

Installation

Clone this repo to a local directory.
If you are installing to a Linux platform that supports chkconfig, copy ./bin/knittingtools-chkconfig to the location appropriate for your Linux distribution (usually /etc/rc.d/init.d/knittingtools).
Edit the init script to reflect the appropriate locations for the lock file, python executable, server.py script and PID file. I recommend you create a Python virtual environment as a subdirectory of your local repo.

Running The Application

Start, stop or restart the server using the following commands:

sudo service knittingtools start

sudo service knittingtools stop

sudo service knittingtools restart

Use the following command to determine the server's current status:

sudo service knittingtools status

Logging

Access and error logs are written to /var/log/knittingtools.log and /var/log/knittingtools.err respectively. The log configuration can be modified by editing logging.conf.
