Raspberry Pi Utilities

The rpi project contains helpers for Raspberry Pi management. The primary command ru clones the currently running system to another microSD card using dd.

Usage

From the command line:

gway rpi ru /dev/sda

Programmatically:

from gway import gw
gw.rpi.ru('/dev/sda')

Ensure the destination device refers to the USB microSD writer connected to the Pi. The entire device will be overwritten and requires sudo permissions. Cloning may take several minutes.

Web Interface

Launch the web application and open /rpi/pi-remote to use a simple interface for selecting the target device and starting the copy. The progress bar updates automatically while the clone runs.
