Hello, does anyone know how @nicedevil did the dashboard in this thread (thread link here) using MQTT with 3D printer data, controls and uploading of STL from the dashboard to the 3D printer to start printing?

Why not just use the octoprint interface, this sounds like reinventing the wheel ?

I'm trying to use MQTT for IIoT applications. Instead of the OctoPrint interface which is limited to 3D printer itself.

I'm trying to figure out how to integrate OctoPrint with Node-Red.

For Octoprint with node-red I started off trying to use the MQTT plugin, but there were some problems, so I opted for using the http interface. Here are a couple of subflows I developed which may be useful. I should put them on the flows site. [{"id":"7f7083a4.f9da74","type":"subflow","name":"Oct…

Both data received and controlling the printer @bakman2 just like the one here https://discourse.nodered.org/t/node-red-to-octoprint-integration/38264/3?u=toniii

Thank you so much @Colin , I'll check up on this! Did you use Node-Red for this?

[image] toniii: Did you use Node-Red for this? I don't understand what you mean. How could I develop node red subflows other than using node red?

Just wanted to verify! Thank you! How did you do the connection of nodes? Sorry, newbie here!

So what exactly do you need help with?
