Request: Upload machine definitions #40

Open ospalh opened 7 years ago

ospalh commented 7 years ago

Looking at the GPX (w/o OctoPrint ) Readme, you can use -c to use a new machine definition. I have found just a file like that for my printer, a Makerbot clone from CTC, and can’t tell the plugin to use it, but have to modify an existing file, which is error-prone.

True. The plugin doesn't have a feature for uploading an .ini file.

Changing the title to reflect a feature request.

BTW, I believe the CTC is a clone of a Replicator 1 Dual, so you can also just choose that from the drop down.

The point is that it’s a Replicator 1 clone, with different stepper and extruder values. I selected the Replicator 1 and had to change the values. Works, but could be simpler.
