Install experimental OpenScanCloud processing feature

Prerequisites

You should have installed either the simplified or expert user interface following this instructions (see https://github.com/OpenScanEu/OpenScan) or by using a given SD image (see https://en.openscan.eu/pi-shield).

Save the current user interface by opening the command terminal and run:

cp /home/pi/.node-red/flows_raspberrypi.json /home/pi/.node-red/backup_flows_raspberrypi.json

Install the modified User Interface:

sudo wget -O /home/pi/.node-red/flows_raspberrypi.json https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenScanEu/OpenScan/master/temp/2020-06-02_OSC.json

and restart node-red:

node-red-restart

(If you want to restore your previous user interface:

cp /home/pi/.node-red/backup_flows_raspberrypi.json /home/pi/.node-red/flows_raspberrypi.json

You should be ready to access the new functions via the userinterface at openscanpi:1880/ui and submenu "files"

Follow these steps to upload and process your existing photoset:

you will be able to see your existing files and download the image sets from the pi to your computer via "ZIP" link (similar to before)
in order to activate the cloud functionality enter your Token and press enter
Press "REFRESH" and you should be able to see limit_photos, limit_filesize and Credit (in Gigabyte)
Uploading and processing should be as simple as selecting a set in the table and press "Upload"
You can query the status from time to time by pressing "REFRESH"
After some time the status will either change to "processing done" and you should get an email with the download link
Please let me know, if everything works, or if you encounter any errors & error codes.

deprecated, see https://github.com/OpenScanEu/OpenScanCloud for a standalone upload script (python)

2021-09-29:

added a new version to implement the completely overhauled OpenScanCloud engine. Only thing to do is to install the update and re-enter your Token (formerly CloudID). Note that some tokens got lost during the rebuild, so feel free to reach out to cloud@openscan.eu :)

2021-02-18:

fixed: filesize limit 200-300mb by dropbox --> splitting file on the client device and uploading several parts of 200mb or less
added: previewing part of the cloud id "12asvsa1***"
added: support different image formats (jpg/jpeg, png, bmp, tiff , gif)
added: more detailed upload status
improved: stability and minor displaying issues (showing wrong/no information on errors)
