Upload and start print automatically

[nailgilaziev]

When using simulated OctoPrint server to send g-code from slicer directly like this

./sm2uploader-darwin-arm64 -octoprint 127.0.0.1:8844 -host 192.168.1.174

There are two options:

• Upload
• Upload and Print

Is it possible that printing will start automatically after sending the code by pressing second option?

I'm still trying to implement it, but the protocols for Snapmaker are not the same in each model, so it's complicated.

+1 this would be very nice

@macdylan can you explain to me how to research the protocol? how to organize the connection? is there any documentation? I know how to use wireshark a little and I know how to program; maybe I can help

[macdylan]

The Snapmaker protocol v0 is HTTP-based, while v1 is completely private and is documented here, but not completely, you need the luban source code to analyze.

Hi,
I second this improvement, sending the print command to the printer (Artisan in my case) would be very useful.
If it can help, I know it works with Cura (snapmaker plugin). Maybe looking in that code can give useful insights.

Thanks for the beautiful work, @macdylan !

Sorry guys, I am currently working on another project in my spare time, so this feature will not be implemented for now. If anyone is interested in improving it, please submit a PR.

in short looks like send the file to prepare_print instead of upload then hit start_print with the filename

I'll try remembering how to write go and making a PR in between print jobs :)
