aivudaos 1.0.0.dev2026040711

AivudaOS packaged for pip installation and PyPI publishing.

AivudaOS

aivudaOS is a lightweight OS on swarm robot's onboard computer. It offers a graphical panel which allows you to interact with the onboard system and manage the APPs.

Install

• Install from PyPI:

pip install aivudaos
# pip install -i https://pypi.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/simple aivudaos  # use pypi mirror (may not be the latest)
# pip install aivudaos==1.0.0.dev2026040602  # for a certain version

• Install from a provided wheel:

pip install aivudaos-1.0.0.dev2026040501-py3-none-any.whl

• Install from source:

git clone https://gitee.com/buaa_iooda/aivudaOS.git
cd aivudaOS/
pip install -e . # need dated npm and node (>20) installed
# pip install -i https://pypi.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/simple -e .  # use pypi mirror for build

To upgrade:

# pip index versions aivudaos --pre  # inspect available versions on PyPI
pip install aivudaos --upgrade

To uninstall:

# stop and remove the systemd service by 'aivudaos uninstall' first:
aivudaos uninstall
pip uninstall aivudaos

Usage

After install the wheel, you need to install aivudaOS dependencies first:

aivudaos install

This will install all the dependencies and start aivudaOS and make aivudaOS autostart.

Then get url and open it in your browser:

aivudaos web

It will remind you to visit http://127.0.0.1:80 on the local browser, or vist https://<avahi_hostname>.local:443 on a remote browser

The following port is used by aivudaOS:

• 127.0.0.1:8000: internal backend, reverse proxy by caddy;
• http://127.0.0.1:80: expose the service by caddy for http;
• https://<avahi_hostname>.local:443 expose the service by caddy for https,

where the <avahi_hostname> can be read by

aivudaos get-avahi-hostname
aivudaos get-avahi-hostname --debug

Each robot has a randomly generated and unique avahi_hostname on install, which can also be changed in the system setting of the aivudaOS panel.

The System Settings page in the web UI can also manage the AivudaOS service itself:

• stop service
• restart service
• uninstall service
• enable/disable autostart
• passwordless sudo, relogin, and APT sources management

After installation, you can use the unified CLI:

aivudaos --help
aivudaos --version
aivudaos install
aivudaos web
aivudaos start
aivudaos stop
aivudaos restart
aivudaos enable-autostart
aivudaos disable-autostart
aivudaos download-caddy
aivudaos uninstall

Build wheel

Build release artifacts locally:

Wheel artifacts include only aivudaos/resources/ui/dist for the frontend. The source distribution excludes dist and node_modules, while keeping the UI source files for development and rebuilding.

cd aivudaOS/
cd aivudaos/resources/ui/ && npm install && npm run build && cd ../../..
AIVUDAOS_BUILD_SEQ=01 
python -m build
# PIP_INDEX_URL=https://pypi.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/simple python -m build  # use pypi mirror

If your environment does not provide python -m build isolation support, use:

AIVUDAOS_BUILD_SEQ=01 python -m build --no-isolation

Upload to PyPi:

cd aivudaOS
AIVUDAOS_BUILD_SEQ=01 \
TWINE_USERNAME=__token__ \
TWINE_PASSWORD="$PYPI_TOKEN" \
TWINE_NON_INTERACTIVE=1 \
./publish_aivudaos_pypi.sh

## or not upload
cd aivudaOS
AIVUDAOS_BUILD_SEQ=01 \
./publish_aivudaos_pypi.sh --skip-upload

The automated workflow is activated at https://github.com/shupx/aivudaOS/actions/workflows/nightly-build.yml, which deploys a check every night and build and publish wheels to PyPi if there is a update.
