Feature Request: Filament runout detection for Octoprint? #13

Closed evilC closed 1 year ago

evilC commented 1 year ago

Is there any way to enable support for filament runout detection while printing via Octoprint?

parachvte commented 1 year ago

Sorry I don't familiar with filament runout of OctoPrint. If someone can issue a PR or knowing how to, very appreciated.

@parachvte this is not something I know much about, but in a discussion on the FB group, someone seemed to know a bit about it

To quote:

Jeffrey Edgett The firmware supports the host action commands, but they are not yet enabled. Jade Wu, do you mind bringing this up with the devs? They just need to uncomment the define HOST_ACTION_COMMANDS line in Configuration_adv.h to allow the filament runout sensor, etc. to work with OctoPrint.

To be clear, this change would need to be made in the printers firmware — not the Cura plugin.

Is there a repo yet for the firmware?

No there is not. @parachvte has said it is OK to post these issues here for now. I made a request for the source code, and was told that they will release it, but are "working to make it more stable for public use", which is technically a violation of the GPL license, but I'll cut them a bit of slack for now.
