Better Grbl Support Plugin for Octoprint

grbl

This plugin was inspired by mic159's Grbl Support plugin (https://plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/octoprint-grbl-plugin/). His plugin gets you 90% of the way there for adding Grbl support to Octoprint but had a couple limitations and lacked some bells and whistles from a UI and configuration perspective.

Better Grbl Support originally utilized mic159's gcode receiver parser but at this point I've moved well beyond his reference implementation.

Here are some of bgs's capabilities (as of v2.0.0):

  • Fully supports Laser and CNC operations / workflows
  • Provides for 10 axes of movement / jogging
  • Machine and Work Positioning Homing / Origin setup
  • Allows for full management of All Grbl settings ($$)
  • Provides rich details for all Grbl settings, messages, alarms, and errors
  • Supports Z-Probing and customization of Z-Probe settings
  • 9 Point Framing and auto generation of Framing dimensions
  • Detects and automatically supports Grbl 1.1 Jogging
  • Fully integrates with Octoprint Start/Pause/Resume/Cancel operations
  • All global configuration changes to Octoprint are reverted on uninstall
  • All conversions of typical marlin/repetier/etc commands to Grbl are preset
  • Disables Octoprint functions which interfere with Grbl
  • Disables the built-in GCode Viewer
  • Disables the built-in Temperature tab
  • Disables the built-in Control tab (It can be re-enabled via Settings)
  • Supports compressed/shorthand Grbl generated by numerous post processors
