#199 : Choose a folder tree on octoprint when uploading #206

First version with destination folder in the main configuration

Turiok commented 3 years ago

I created a first version. But it's only with a textField in the configuration of OctoprintPlugin. I only tested with the mode "send to Octoprint" but not with the print job mode.

I would like to have the possibility to choose the destination folder when we click on "Print with Octoprint". But I don't know how to do that. The class message from Cura can add a button but not a TextField. And the WIKI to create a plugin is too less detailed. Do you have an idea to do that?

This is not the way I would like to solve this. If you want to enter a path like this, then install the Custom Print Job Naming plugin.

What I will add in a future version is a dialog that (optionally) pops up after pressing the "Print with OctoPrint" button, much like how DuetRRFPlugin does it.

I understand.

That means Custom Print Job Naming plugin will be linked with this plugin to get the default path? And for the optionally pops up. The choice to enable or not. Do you want a checkbox in the Connect Octoprint panel? Where there are checkbox of start or select print job after uploading. Last question. Do you want help or do you prefer make this alone?
