OctoPrint Changelog

1.2.0 (Unreleased)

New Features

  • Added internationalization of UI. Translations of OctoPrint are being crowd sourced via Transifex. The following translations are already available with more in the works:
    • Dutch (nl)
    • German (de)
    • French (fr)
    • Hebrew (he)
    • Norwegian (no)
    • Romanian (ro)
  • New file list: Pagination is gone, no more (mobile incompatible) pop overs, instead scrollable and with instant search
  • You can now define a folder (default: ~/.octoprint/watched) to be watched for newly added GCODE (or -- if slicing support is enabled -- STL) files to automatically add.
  • OctoPrint now has a plugin system which allows extending its core functionality.
  • New type of API key: App Session Keys for trusted applications
  • Printer Profiles: Printer properties like print volume, extruder offsets etc are now managed via Printer Profiles. A connection to a printer will always have a printer profile associated.
  • OctoPrint now supports action:... commands received via debug messages (// action:...) from the printer. Currently supported are
    • action:pause: Pauses the current job in OctoPrint
    • action:resume: Resumes the current job in OctoPrint
    • action:disconnect: Disconnects OctoPrint from the printer Plugins can add supported commands by hooking into the octoprint.comm.protocol.action hook
  • Mousing over the webcam image in the control tab enables key control mode, allowing you to quickly move the axis of your printer with your computer's keyboard (#610):
    • arrow keys: X and Y axes
    • W, S / PageUp, PageDown: Y axes
    • Home: Home X and Y axes
    • End: Home Z axes
    • 1, 2, 3, 4: change step size used (0.1, 1, 10, 100mm)
  • Controls for adjusting feed and flow rate factor added to Controls (#362)
  • Custom controls now also support slider controls
  • Custom controls now support a row layout
  • Users can now define custom GCODE scripts to run upon starting/pausing/resuming/success/failure of a print

Improvements

  • Logging is now configurable via config file
  • Added last print time to additional GCODE file information
  • Better error handling for capture issues during timelapse creation & more robust handling of missing images during timelapse creation
  • Start counting the layers at 1 instead of 0 in the GCODE viewer
  • Upgraded Font Awesome to version 3.2.1
  • Better error reporting for timelapse rendering and system commands
  • Custom control can now be defined so that they show a Confirm dialog with configurable text before executing (#532 and #590)
  • Slicing has been greatly improved:
    • It now allows for a definition of slicing profiles to use for slicing plus overrides which can be defined per slicing job (defining overrides is not yet part of the UI but it's on the roadmap).
    • A new slicing dialog has been added which allows (re-)slicing uploaded STL files (which are now displayed in the file list as well). This dialog also allows specifying which action to take after slicing has been completed (none, selecting the sliced GCODE for printing or starting to print it directly)
    • Slicers themselves are integrated into the system via SlicingPlugins.
    • The Cura integration has changed in such a way that OctoPrint now calls the CuraEngine directly instead of depending on the full Cura installation. See the wiki for instructions on how to change your setup to accommodate the new integration.
    • The "Slicing done" notification is now colored green (#558).
    • The slicing API allows positioning the model to slice on the print bed (Note: this is not yet available in the UI).
  • File management now supports STL files as first class citizens (including UI adjustments to allow management of uploaded STL files including removal and reslicing) and also allows folders (not yet supported by UI). STL files can be downloaded like GCODE files.
  • Also interpret lines starting with "!!" as errors
  • Added deletion of pyc files to the python setup.py clean command
  • Settings now show a QRCode for the API Key (#637)
  • Username in UI is no longer enclosed in scare quotes (#595)
  • Username in login dialog is not automatically capitalized on mobile devices anymore (#639)
  • "Slicing Done" and "Streaming Done" notifications now have a green background (#558)
  • Files that are currently in use, be it for slicing, printing or whatever, are now tracked and can not be deleted as long as they are in use
  • Settings in UI get refreshed when opening settings dialog
  • New event "SettingsUpdated"
  • "Print time left" is now not displayed until it becomes somewhat stable. Display in web interface now also happens in a fuzzy way instead of the format hh:mm:ss, to not suggest a high accuracy anymore where the can't be one. Additionally OctoPrint will use data from prior prints to enhance the initial print time estimation.
  • Added handler for uncaught exceptions to make sure those get logged, should make the logs even more useful for analysing bug reports
  • The server now tracks the modification date of the configuration file and reloads it prior to saving the config if it has been changed during runtime by external editing, hence no config settings added manually while the server was running should be overwritten anymore.
  • Automatically hard-reload the UI if upon reconnecting to the server a new version is detected.
  • Better handling of errors on the websocket - no more logging of the full stack trace to the log, only a warning message for now.
  • Daemonized OctoPrint now cleans up its pidfile when receiving a TERM signal (#711)
  • Added serial types for OpenBSD (#551)
  • Improved behaviour of terminal:
    • Disabling autoscrolling now also stops cutting of the log while it's enabled, effectively preventing log lines from being modified at all (#735)
    • Applying filters displays [...] where lines where removed
    • Added a link to scroll to the end of the terminal log (useful for when autoscroll is disabled)
    • Added a link to select all current contents of the terminal log for easy copy-pasting
    • Added a display of how many lines are displayed, how many are filtered and how many are available in total
  • Frame rate for timelapses can now be configured per timelapse (#782)
  • Added an option to specify the amount of encoding threads for FFMPEG (#785)
  • "Disconnected" screen now is not shown directly after a close of the socket, instead the client first tries to directly reconnect once, and only if that doesn't work displays the dialog. Should reduce short popups of the dialog due to shaky network connections and/or weird browser behaviour when downloading things from the UI.
  • Development dependencies can now be installed with pip -e .[develop]
  • White and transparent colors ;) are supported for the navigation bar (#789)
  • Drag-n-drop overlay for file uploads now uses the full available screen space, improving usability on high resolution displays (#187)

  • #633 - Correctly interpret temperature lines from multi extruder setups under Smoothieware

1.1.0 (2014-09-03)

New Features

  • New Event structure allows more flexibility regarding payload data, configuration files will be migrated automatically. You can find the documentation of the new event format and its usage at docs.octoprint.org.

  • Webcam stream is disabled when control tab is not in focus, reduces bandwidth (#316)
  • M and G commands entered in Terminal tab are automatically converted to uppercase
  • GCODE viewer now only loads automatically if GCODE file size is beneath certain threshold (different ones for desktop and mobile devices), only actually loads file if user acknowledges that this might be too much for his browser

  • Made "Center viewport on model" and "Zoom in on model" in the GCODE viewer automatically deselect and de-apply if viewport gets manipulated by the user (#398)
  • GCODE viewer now interprets inverted axes for printer control and mirrors print bed accordingly (#431)
  • Added clean command to setup.py, removes old build artifacts (mostly interesting for developers)
  • Added version resource on API which reports application and API version
  • Made the navbar static instead of fixed to improve usability on mobile devices (#257)
