LED strip driver board at Midwest RepRap Fest by Tim for Raspberry Pi Zero uses Octoprint plugin to visualize 3-D printer status. #mrrf2017
Pretty nifty
What is the name of the plugin?
@Ernesto_Martinez don’t know. Send a email to the address 
And when you do also please tell the author to register it in the repository 
@foosel , glad to see you step in! The reason I’m asking is that I have an All pixel board that can be controlled from a Python script, but so far I haven’t figured out how to make it react to system events from within OctoPi. I am currently trying to find out a way to do it using the System Commands plugin. Any hints?
AllPixel uses the BiblioPixel library.
Best approach (highest flexibility): write a plugin. If that is not an option look into the event subsystem: http://docs.octoprint.org/en/master/events/index.html
Cool!!! I’ll have a look! Thanks!
@Adam_Haile any comments on this?
Hi Gina! The plugin is already in the registry, http://plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/ledstripcontrol/
I got approval to open source the board right before MRRF so it’s not uploaded yet, and Uriah keeps asking for more things to fill the empty space. It will be on https://github.com/thatch/step_down_led_board after I get some sleep.
Ahhh! Sorry for the noise then, didn’t click
@foosel , I found a way using the System Command plugin. I wrote python scripts that turn the LEDs on and OFF and added them to the system menu. Now I am thinking of adding animations and tie them into system events you pointed me to. Thanks! And sorry for hijacking the thread.
