Scripts

Build, deploy, and setup helpers for the Smart Serow project.

Build & Deploy

Script	Purpose
`build.py`	Cross-compile Flutter app for ARM64. Runs `generate_theme.py` first.
`deploy.py`	rsync bundle to Pi, optionally restart service
`build-deploy.py`	Convenience wrapper: build → deploy → restart

# Typical workflow
python3 build.py              # Build only
python3 deploy.py --restart   # Deploy and restart service
python3 build-deploy.py       # All-in-one

# Clean rebuild (clears CMake cache)
python3 build.py --clean

Theme Generation

Script	Purpose
`generate_theme.py`	Converts `extra/themes/*.json` → `pi/ui/lib/theme/app_colors.dart`

Called automatically by build.py. Looks for theme matching navigator in config.json, falls back to default.json.

Pi Setup

Script	Purpose
`pi_setup.sh`	First-time Pi configuration (deps, permissions, systemd service)
`smartserow-ui.service.sample`	Systemd unit file template

# On the Pi
chmod +x pi_setup.sh
./pi_setup.sh

Configuration

File	Purpose
`deploy_target.sample.json`	Template for deploy settings
`deploy_target.json`	Your actual deploy config (gitignored)

{
  "user": "pi",
  "host": "raspberrypi.local",
  "remote_path": "/opt/smartserow",
  "service_name": "smartserow-ui"
}

Shell vs Python

Both .sh and .py versions exist for some scripts. The Python versions are more robust (better error handling, colored output). Use those.
