MakerBot Gen 5 API
The goal of this project is to provide a Python API for controlling the MakerBot 5th Generation 3D printers
Current Features:
Oauth authentication (fcgi / jsonrpc)
Get printer status (nozzle temp, print progress, ...)
Access the camera
Installing:
Clone/download the API
Run "python/setup.py" (Tested with Python 2.7)
Common Issues:
If you have MakerBot Desktop / MakerWare installed, chances are the conveyor service is running in the background. This service takes hold of the ports used for running discover.py. In MakerBot Desktop, go to Services -> Stop Background Service to be able to discover bots on your network.
