Creates a printable reference card from your Elite: Dangerous controller bindings

Build status

• live
• beta
• dev

Purpose

Elite: Dangerous has a great many command bindings to learn. To help with that, EDFRefCard generates a printable reference card from your Elite: Dangerous bindings file.

Currently hosted at https://edrefcard.info/.

Dependencies

• Python 3.6 or later

  • Python3 module lxml
  • Python3 module wand
  • Python3 module pytest
  • Python3 module pytest-cov
  • Python3 module coveralls

• ImageMagick v6 (at the time of writing python wand doesn't support ImageMagick v7)

  • you may need to configure the MAGICK_HOME env var to get wand to see the ImageMagick libraries.

Installation in a web server

• Base the server on the www subdirectory of this repo.
• Check that your server is supplying the env vars CONTEXT_DOCUMENT_ROOT and SCRIPT_URI so that Config.dirRoot and Config.webRoot in www/scripts/bindings.py get set correctly. Apache 2 does this by default. Python's cgi.test() is useful here.
• Enable Apache's rewrite and cgi or cgid mods.
• Add redirects as follows (in Apache 2 notation):

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/list$ /scripts/bindings.py?list=all
RewriteRule ^/binds/(.+)$ /scripts/bindings.py?replay=$1
RewriteRule ^/configs/([a-z][a-z])([^/]+)$ /configs/$1/$1$2
RewriteRule ^/devices$ /scripts/bindings.py?devicelist=all
RewriteRule ^/device/(.+)$ /scripts/bindings.py?blocks=$1

• Certain web servers, including Apache 2 on Debian 9, are prone to set brain-dead IO encodings, such as ANSI_X3.4-1968. To fix this, add the following at the end of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf:

SetEnv PYTHONIOENCODING utf-8

Docker

Build a docker container:

docker build -t edrefcard .

Run the docker container in the background, exposed on port 8080 on the host:

docker run -d --rm --name edrefcard -p 8080:80 edrefcard

EDRefCard can then be accessed at http://localhost:8080
