A library to interface with the PrusaLink API

Project description

PrusaLinkPy is a library to use the Prusa Link API.

The library makes it easy to use the prusa API in python. The library is based on Request.

Example of use :

# Library import
import PrusaLinkPy

# Printer instantiation
# IP : 192.168.0.123
# API KEY : 8ojHKHGNuAHA2bM
prusaMini = PrusaLinkPy.PrusaLinkPy("192.168.0.123", "8ojHKHGNuAHA2bM")

# Get bed temperature
getPrint = prusaMini.get_printer()

# Display bed temperature
print(getPrint.json()["telemetry"]["temp-bed"])

# Delete a files on USB drive :
prusaMini.delete("/5H30M_~1.GCO")

# Transferring a file to the printer
if not prusaMini.exists_gcode('FOLDER/test.gcode') :
    prusaMini.put_gcode('C:/AM/test.gcode', 'FOLDER/test.gcode')

# List files on USB Drive :
prusaMini.get_files().json()["children"]

# Print this file 
prusaMini.post_print_gcode('/usb/test.gcode')

The library changed its name in May 2024. Before it was called prusaLink. Prusa staff asked me to leave them the name.

printAfterUpload : Set at True to print after upload.

overwrite : Allow file Overwrite

FW 5.1.0 :

  • Warning: printing starts even if the bed is not empty

  • Can only send bgcode and gcode

    Overwrite

    status = prusaMini.put('C:/MTN/DEBOUCHAGE.gcode' , 'MTN/DEBOUCHAGE.gcode', False, True)

    Overwrite and Print

    status = prusaMini.put('C:/MTN/DEBOUCHAGE.gcode' , 'MTN/DEBOUCHAGE.gcode', True, True)

PrusaLinkPy.exists_gcode(remotePath)

Check if a file exists on USB drive.

Return True or False

import PrusaLinkPy
prusaMini = PrusaLinkPy.PrusaLinkPy("192.168.0.123", "8ojHKHGNuAHA2bM")
status = prusaMini.exists_gcode('/DEBOUC~1.GCO')

PrusaLinkPy.pause_print()

Pause actual print.

Added in 2.2.0 .

PrusaLinkPy.resume_print()

Resume paused print.

Added in 2.2.0 .

PrusaLinkPy.stop_print()

Stop actual print.

Added in 2.2.0 .

API

API not implemented in my lib :

/api/settings

POST /api/job Link to Buddy code

GET/POST /api/download Link to Buddy code

Bugs present in Prusa MINI printer firmware 4.4.1:

  • There is no possibility to have the list of folders present in a directory

    • Solved in firmware 5
  • You cannot upload a gcode in a subfolder of the USB key

    • Solved in firmware 5
  • When the printer detects the end of the filament and it displays "Change Filament" the telemetry information is no longer good. Here is the information returned by the printer in this case:

    'telemetry': {'temp-bed': 0.0, 'temp-nozzle': 0.0, 'print-speed': 100, 'z-height': 0.0, 'material': '---'}

  • Still in the case of a filament change, the status information is incorrect:

    'state': {'text': 'Operational', 'flags': {'operational': True, 'paused': False, 'printing': False, 'cancelling': False, 'pausing': False, 'sdReady': False, 'error': False, 'closedOnError': False, 'ready': True, 'busy': False}
