Open tbuser opened 12 years ago

tbuser commented 12 years ago

./conveyor -c conveyor-ReplicatorDual-skeinforge.conf slice /tmp/thing /tmp/test.gcode

Causes conveyor to lock up and not return and output the following error:

conveyor: INFO: slicing to file: /tmp/thing -> /tmp/test.gcode conveyor: ERROR: task failed: {u'message': u'uncaught exception', u'code': -32000, u'data': {u'message': u'', u'args': [], u'name': u'NotImplementedError'}} conveyor: ERROR: conveyor terminating with status code 1

manifest.json in that directory has:

{"namespace":"http:\/\/spec.makerbot.com\/ns\/thing.0.1.1.1","objects":{"0.5mm-thin-wall.stl":{},"50mm-tower.stl":{}},"instances":{"plastic A":{"object":"0.5mm-thin-wall.stl","scale":"mm"},"plastic B":{"object":"50mm-tower.stl","scale":"mm"}},"attribution":{"author":"coasterman","license":"Public Domain"}}

It is currently not supported. We are waiting on native dual slicing in Miracle Grue and/or someone to port the postprocessor from ReplicatorG from Java to Python. Both of these are on our roadmap.

Ah, that explains why it used to work with the dbus version. Is it high priority on the roadmap? It's a pretty big roadblock for us. :)

I will talk with Far about getting this moved up.

What's the status of this?
