Zebra Password Changer CLI

Zebra Password Changer CLI is a "blazingly fast 🤣" CLI tool that allows changing Zebra printer's web interface password with socket protocol. Written with Nim 👑 programming language.

📦 Installation

No installation, no dependencies, it's in binary format.

🚀 Compilation

⚠️ You must compile it yourself until any binary is released.

This cli tool is built with Nim programming language. For binary compilation, you need to install nim toolchain and you can use the below command inside the tool root directory. The custom compilation configurations in the config.nims file will be used. The command will create ./bin/zebra-password-changer binary file.

Default compilation

$ nim c ./src/main.nim

Custom binary file name sample

$ nim c -o:./bin/my-super-duper-cli-app ./src/main.nim

A full walkthrough can be like below

$ git clone https://github.com/angelside/zebra-password-changer-cli-nim.git
$ cd zebra-password-changer-cli-nim
$ nim c ./src/main.nim
$ ./bin/zebra-password-changer help

ℹ️ It's a single binary file, you can move the file anywhere and/or can add it to PATH.

🔨 Usage

CLI tool has two parameters: the printer's IP address and the new password (4 digits, only numbers). We don't have to know the current password.

$ ./bin/zebra-password-changer <IP_ADDRESS> <PASSWORD>
