How to port the miniemc2 web interface

These steps were tested to work on RPI and x86 builds of linuxcnc. Note that this is just a hack, improvements are needed to make this work properly.

Notes:

• emcweb directory is under /usr/src
• linuxcnc source is in /usr/src/emc3-dev
• linuxcnc is configured to run-in-place, i.e. '--prefix is not set

Install required packages

	sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends libboost-serialization-dev libboost-thread-dev

Download the emcweb source and patch

	svn checkout http://miniemc2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/emcweb
	wget patch

Patch emcweb and linuxcnc

	patch -p0 < patch

Compile

	cd emcweb
	make

Create and populate web root directory

	mkdir -p www/data
	mv css/ js/ res/ html/index.html www/

Test

	sudo ./emcweb
