How to set up Moonraker's update_manager for moonraker-telegram

Add this to your Moonraker config;

[update_manager client moonraker-telegram]
type: git_repo
path: /home/pi/moonraker-telegram
origin: https://github.com/Raabi91/moonraker-telegram.git
env: /home/pi/.moonraker-telegram-env/bin/python
requirements: scripts/moonraker-telegram-requirements.txt
install_script: scripts/install.sh

How to use the /set comand

the /set command cannot be called from the / submenu because it needs variables which are structured as follows: /set:xxx:yy

  • Replace xxx by your extruder or heat bed name
  • Replace yy by the temperature you want to change to

Examples:

/set:extruder:230
/set:heater_bed:60

How to use Multicams

To use Multicams you need to extend 4 of your variables to generate a list and this varibales must be bracketed:

The variables you need are:

  • webcam
  • rotate
  • horizontally
  • vertically

Example for 3 cams

webcam=("http://127.0.0.1:8080/?action=snapshot" "http://127.0.0.1:8083/?action=snapshot" "http://127.0.0.1:8082/?action=snapshot")
rotate=("0" "180" "90")
horizontally=("0" "0" "1")
vertically=("0" "1" "0")

The relations among each other are linear to each other.

That means related to the example the first value in rotate = 0 refers to the first webcam (http://127.0.0.1:8080/?action=snapshot). The second value = 180 refers to the second webcam (http://127.0.0.1:8081/?action=snapshot).

Update_Manager shows invalid or false

If the update manager shows an error you must perform the following;

  1. Save your telegram_config.sh on your computer.
  2. Login to the terminal and remove the moonraker-telegram folder. 
    rm -rf moonraker-telegram
  3. Perform a new Installation.
  4. Restore your telegram_config.sh after reinstallation.
  5. Restart moonraker-telegram. 
    sudo systemctl restart moonraker-telegram

Use the bot with force_logins: true

If you want to use your bot with force_logins: true then you just have to enter the API KEY in your telegram_config.sh

How to upgrade moonraker-telegram via terminal

If you use multiple bots you must first enter into each specific folder you created for those bots;

cd Your_folder_name

Then perform the update with the difference that the service name must be adapted to the instance. (sudo systemctl restart moonraker-telegramxxxx)

Execute the code. When you are asked to overwrite your telegram_config.sh reply no.

cd moonraker-telegram
git pull
./scripts/install.sh

Then restart moonraker-telegram

sudo systemctl restart moonraker-telegram

If you have

# moonraker config path
config_dir=/home/pi/klipper_config

in telegram_config.sh you must delete it manually for the moment. The text afer config_dir= can be anything.

How to edit the config with Mainsail

Go to Mainsail -> Settings -> Machine

and go into the config folder, then you can edit the telegram_config.sh.

After editing the config, restart moonraker-telegram with:

sudo systemctl restart moonraker-telegram

or simply reboot your machine.

How to edit the config with fluidd

Go to Mainsail -> Printer -> Config tab

Now you are able to edit the telegram_config.sh.

After editing the config, restart moonraker-telegram with:

sudo systemctl restart moonraker-telegram

or simply reboot your machine.

New variables are not displayed in my config?

This is expected because moonraker-telegram accesses a sample config in the background. If you want to change a variable just copy the appropriate variable from telegram_config into your config and change the value.

How to send your own custom messages via Klipper

First of all check if [respond] is present in your printer config if not add it. Then set up a custom gcode macro like the following:

[gcode_macro telegram_MSG]
gcode:
    RESPOND PREFIX=telegram: MSG="your message"

The prefix is used to specify whether you only want a message or also an image

PREFIX=telegram: is for messages only

PREFIX=telegram_picture: is for pictures with an optional message

Examples:

# Send only a text via telegram
[gcode_macro telegram_MSG]
gcode:
    RESPOND PREFIX=telegram: MSG="your message"

# Send a picture with a text via telegram
[gcode_macro telegram_MSG+picture]
gcode:
    RESPOND PREFIX=telegram_picture: MSG="your message"

# Send only a picture via telegram
[gcode_macro telegram_picture]
gcode:
    RESPOND PREFIX=telegram_picture: MSG=""

If you need more messages just copy and paste the first macro and edit it

How to run multiple bots

To use this you must use a second bot in Telegram

Create a directory for a second bot like;

mkdir telegram1

Then go in to the folder:

cd telegram1

Now perform a normal installation The only difference between these installs is that you have to enter a suitable string when asked for multi installation so that you can later distinguish between the 2 Telegram installations.

This string ensures that your further instances get their own name, which is added after moonraker-telegram in systemd.

If you have specified "1" in the mullti instance, the service for it is "moonraker-telegram1". if you have specified "_voron", it is "moonraker-telegram_voron".

These service names are needed for restarting the services later on.

How to use commands with buttons in Telegram

resume - Resume current print.
cancel - Abort the current print. A confirmation will be requested
help - Show list of commands.
print - Select a file from moonraker for printing
power - Interact with power devices of moonraker
gcode_macro - Run custom GCode Macros of moonraker

timelapse -  download files from timelpase plugin by selection

How to use automatic led for cam

!!! Attention: This is designed only for the powerplugin of moonraker or gcode macros of klipper !!!

If the led variables are missing you only have to copy them from the Telegram_config.md and paste them into your own.

The setup is actually quite simple and we subdivide depending on the control

1. Control of the leds via Power manager:

Simply set the variables in the configuration to the appropriate command and replace the <device> with your device name. If you have spaces in your device names, replace the spaces with %20

led_on="http://127.0.0.1:$port/machine/device_power/on?<device>"
led_off"http://127.0.0.1:$port/machine/device_power/off?<device>"

Example if you have in your moonraker.config the following power configuration:

[power Tronxy X5SAPro]
type: gpio
pin: gpio4
#.......

Then the configuration for this device must be as follows

led_on="http://127.0.0.1:$port/machine/device_power/on?Tronxy%20X5SAPro"
led_off"http://127.0.0.1:$port/machine/device_power/off?Tronxy%20X5SAPro"

2. Control of the leds via gcode macro:

Simply set the variables in the configuration to the appropriate command and add the <macro> with your macro name.

led_on="http://127.0.0.1:$port/printer/gcode/script?script=<macro>"
led_off="http://127.0.0.1:$port/printer/gcode/script?script=<macro>"

Example

printer.cfg

[gcode_macro led_on]
gcode:
#....

Then the configuration for this gcode must be as follows

led_on="http://127.0.0.1:$port/printer/gcode/script?script=led_on"

If you need some time after the power on/off commands just set the delay variables the the desired amount of seconds.

Gcode upload not work

Make sure your gcode is ending at .gcode and you that have set [octoprint_compat] in the moonraker.config
