gcodesender.py

Basic gcode sender in Python.

This script has been tested on a pcDuino v2 sending gcode to a Printrbot. It should also work on an Arduino Yun.

Features

  • programmatically sends gcode over a USB port
  • automagically strips out Slic3r comments and delivers only pure uncut gcode

Help: ./gcodesender.py --help

Example usage:

./gcodesender.py -p /dev/ttyACM0 -f /media/UNTITLED/shoulder.g
