pricegod-urovo-daemon

The Windows counterpart to the Mac rfid-daemon. Instead of a Chafon gun writing a loose chip while a Dymo prints a separate sticker, this drives the Urovo D812R+ (RFID) to print the label AND encode the UHF chip in one pass on the composite (paper+chip) rolls.

It listens on http://localhost:7790/ with CORS *, so it's a drop-in for the PriceGod extension's existing daemon.js client — same port, same JSON shape.

Run it

Double-click start-daemon.cmd (leave the window open while you work). That's it — no Node, no .NET SDK, no gitea clone. It's a self-contained .exe.

To rebuild after editing daemon.cs: double-click build.cmd.

What's inside

• daemon.cs — the service (C#, .NET Framework 4.x).
• pricegod-urovo-daemon.exe — the compiled daemon.
• GTSPL_SDK.dll, GTSPL_SDK_C.dll, zlib.net.dll — the Gainscha/Urovo print SDK (must sit beside the .exe). Copied from the vendor Windows SDK.

The print/encode sequence is a straight port of the proven gtcheck.cs rfidgo path: SET RIBBON OFF → continuous geometry (GAP 0, RFID rolls blind the optical gap sensor) → writeUHF → draw text + QR → printlabel → read-back verify.

Routes

method	path	body	returns
GET	/status	—	{ok, ready, status, statusText, printer}
POST	/print-encode	{sku, releaseId, artist?, title?, price?, condition?, w?, h?, gap?}	{ok, sku, releaseId, epc, verified, status}
POST	/write-tag	alias of /print-encode (the daemon.js name)	same
GET	/read-tag	—	{ok, epc, sku, releaseId, recognized}
POST	/calibrate	—	RFID auto-calibration
POST	/recover	—	ribbon-off + one feed to clear a fault

Quick test (PowerShell):

Invoke-RestMethod http://localhost:7790/status

SKU ↔ EPC scheme (⚠ verify)

The 96-bit EPC (12 bytes) is packed as: 6 bytes 14-digit timestamp SKU · 4 bytes release_id · 2 bytes 0xEC01 marker. This lives in the Epc class in daemon.cs and is the only thing that needs to change if it must match a different (Mac/Chafon) layout — nothing else depends on the byte order. Confirm by reading an existing tag: put a Chafon-written record at the antenna and GET /read-tag.

Notes / open items

• Default label geometry is 65×37 mm, continuous (GAP 0). Adjust to your actual RFID roll via the w/h/gap fields, or change the DEF_* constants.
• The label layout (text lines + QR) is functional, not yet pixel-matched to the 51×19 Dymo design in the extension's labels.js.
• The Chafon gun is still needed for reading a loose tag off a shelf — the Urovo can only read/write a tag physically inside the printer.
