This is a rewrite of dwc2-for-klipper. As Klipper offers now a unixsocket API, its time to use it and run outside klippers main thread.
- It works everywhere where klipper works, not only with duet boards
- Klipper is not RepRapFirmware
- This is a translator between klipper and Duet Web Control
- The DWC service can be restarted at any time without restarting klipper
- Sometimes buttons get a bad response - especially macros
- Usually a timing issue
- Make sure action gets performed
- Set AJAX retries to 0 for now:
- Settings > Machine-Specific > Number of maximum AJAX retries
- There is a configfile now
- Klipper's printer.cfg is displayed as a virtual file (config.g) in system section
- Restart after configuration edits works
- The macros you define in printer.cfg are displayed as virtual files wthin DWC's macros/klipper folder
- For pause and resume macros you can use:
- Klipper gcode macros pause_print, resume_print, cancel_print (not case sensitive)
- DWC macros pause.g, resume.g, cancel.g - this is in line with RRF
- DWC macros are overriding Klipper's macros
