MakerBot Gen 5 API

The goal of this project is to provide a Python API for controlling the MakerBot 5th Generation 3D printers

Current Features:

• Oauth authentication (fcgi / jsonrpc)
• Get printer status (nozzle temp, print progress, ...)
• Access the camera

Installing:

• Clone/download the API
• Run "python/setup.py" (Tested with Python 2.7)

Common Issues:

• If you have MakerBot Desktop / MakerWare installed, chances are the conveyor service is running in the background. This service takes hold of the ports used for running discover.py. In MakerBot Desktop, go to Services -> Stop Background Service to be able to discover bots on your network.
