Question

我想通过Node.js上的http请求打印文档。有没有办法使用Node.js发送打印作业和查询CUPS服务器。我在探索周围时找到了this项目，这是唯一/正确的方法吗？

Answer 1

您可以使用shell来执行此操作。我不久前建立了一个项目，我需要从Instagram读取某些标签，然后使用树莓派和照片打印机打印上传到IG的照片。

var fs = require('fs'),
    exec = require('child_process').exec;

exec("lp /path/to/somepic.jpg");

// get printer jobs
exec("lpq",function (error, stdout, stderr) {
    console.log('stdout: ' + stdout);
    console.log('stderr: ' + stderr);

    if (error !== null) {
      console.log('exec error: ' + error);
    }
});

命令lp /path/to/somepic.jpg将/path/to/somepic.jpg发送到默认打印机。命令lpq显示打印机队列。为了更好地使用，请阅读CUPS文档。

以下代码段似乎很有用。没有尝试过，因为我不再致力于此问题！这可能对其他人有帮助。原始来源：https://gist.github.com/vodolaz095/5325917

var ipp = require('ipp'); //get it from there - https://npmjs.org/package/ipp - $npm install ipp
var request = require('request'); //get it from there - https://npmjs.org/package/request - $npm install request
var fs = require('fs');

function getPrinterUrls(callback) {
    var CUPSurl = 'http://localhost:631/printers';//todo - change of you have CUPS running on other host
    request(CUPSurl, function (error, response, body) {
        if (!error && response.statusCode == 200) {
            var printersMatches = body.match(/<TR><TD><A HREF="\/printers\/([a-zA-Z0-9-^"]+)">/gm);//i know, this is terrible, sorry(
            var printersUrls = [];
            var i;
            if (printersMatches) {
                for (i = 0; i < printersMatches.length; i++) {
                    var a = (/"\/printers\/([a-zA-Z0-9-^"]+)"/).exec(printersMatches[i]);
                    if (a) {
                        printersUrls.push(CUPSurl + '/' + a[1]);
                    }
                }
            }
        }

    });
