Python 3 command line tool for controlling OctoPrint servers

This tool uses the OctoPrint API to control and view the status of 3D printers connected to OctoPrint servers

This project is a work in progress. Some features may not work as intended or be missing. If you have suggestions or find bugs, please report them in issues. Feel free to fork this repo to fix issues or to implement new features.

Features

These are the features that have been implemented so far, more functions will be implemented in the future. Current progress on features can be found on the project board.

  • Printer connection status
  • Print job status
  • File selection
  • Pause, resume, cancel prints
  • Start print
  • System commands (shutdown, reboot, restart)
  • Listing files/folders
  • Retrieving file/folder information
  • Setting extruder and bed temperature
  • Connect and disconnect from printer
  • Continuous status output with temperature status and progress bar
  • GCODE and STL file uploads to server storage
  • Run G-code on printer from terminal
  • Layer information from OctoPrint-DisplayLayerProgress plugin if installed on server

Limitations

Currently, octoprint-cli is limited to only printers with a single extruder and heated bed. Support for additional extruders and heated chambers may be implemented in the future. This program has been tested on OctoPi 0.17.0 on the Raspberry Pi 4 running OctoPrint 1.4.1 with a Monoprice Select Mini V2.

Colored and formatted text is not available on Windows systems due to the lack of support on cmd and powershell terminals

The program requires the API key to have all permissions to run

Installation

octoprint-cli can be installed from PyPI using pip. PyPI package can be found at https://pypi.org/project/octoprint-cli/

pip install octoprint-cli

octoprint-cli can also be installed manually using git and setup.py

git clone https://github.com/UserBlackBox/octoprint-cli.git
cd octoprint-cli
python3 setup.py install --user

Dependencies

Can be found in requirements.txt and installed with pip

  • termcolor
  • requests

Configuration

The tool reads its configuration from either config.ini in the application directory or from ~/.config/octoprint-cli.ini on Linux systems

A sample config file has been included in sample-config.ini

[server]
;Set OctoPrint server address and x-api-key
ServerAddress = SERVER_ADDRESS_HERE
ApiKey = API_KEY_HERE

[preferences]
;Set if the program uses colored or formatted text, this setting is turned off on windows due to cmd and powershell limitations
FormattedText = true
;Set if the program should check for updates
UpdateCheck = true

[printer]
;Set maximum temperature that printer can be set to
MaxExtruderTemp = 250
MaxBedTemp = 85

Usage

General Commands
