My QL-800 refuses to print black only on a red/black tape. I really don't like the added `rb` function parameter. It would be best to be able to recognize such tapes, however nothing of the sort is documented in official Brother documentation. makeBitmapData{,RB} also look like they could be simplified further. |

sklad
sklad is a simple personal warehouse management system or, let’s rather say, "stuff management system", employing a web UI for easy mobile access from a smartphone. The templates are currently localised only in the Czech language.
The project also contains reusable Go packages with a Brother QL-series USB printer driver and a simple BDF bitmap font renderer, as well as a few related utilities for previewing, printing and debugging.
Building and Running
Build dependencies: Go
Runtime dependencies: Linux, a Brother QL label printer connected over USB
$ go get -u https://janouch.name/sklad/cmd/sklad
You will need to bootstrap the database by writing a minimal db.json:
{ "Password": "login-password", "Prefix": "A", "BDPPath": "font.bdf", "BDFScale": 3 }
Decent Unicode fonts in the BDF format can be obtained from https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs-fonts.html though they will need some upscaling because of the printer’s high DPI.
After placing the templates and the BDF font file in the current working directory, run the application as follows:
$ sklad :8000 db.json
