This document keeps a record of notable changes to Moonraker's Web API.
July 18th 2023
- Moonraker API Version 1.3.0
- Added Spoolman APIs.
- Added Rollback API to
the
update_manager
- The
update_manager
status response has new fields for items of thegit_repo
andweb
types:recovery_url
: Url of the repo a "hard" recovery will fetch fromrollback_version
: Version the extension will revert to when a rollback is requestedwarnings
: An array of strings containing various warnings detected during repo init. Some warnings may explain an invalid state while others may alert users to potential issues, such as agit_repo
remote url not matching the expected (ie: configured) url.- Additionally, the
need_channel_update
field has been removed as the method changing channels is done exclusively in the configuration.
February 20th 2023
-
The following new endpoints are available when at least one
[sensor]
section has been configured:GET /server/sensors/list
GET /server/sensors/sensor
GET /server/sensors/measurements
See web_api.md for details on these new endpoints.
-
A
sensors:sensor_update
notification has been added. When at least one monitored sensor is reporting a changed value Moonraker will broadcast this notification.See web_api.md for details on this new notification.
February 17 2023
- Moonraker API Version 1.2.1
- An error in the return value for some file manager endpoints has
been corrected. Specifically, the returned result contains an
item
object with apath
field that was prefixed with the root (ie: "gcodes"). This is inconsistent with the websocket notification and has been corrected to remove the prefix. This affects the following endpoints:POST /server/files/directory
|server.files.post_directory
DELETE /server/files/directory
|server.files.delete_directory
POST /server/files/move
|server.files.move
POST /server/files/copy
|server.files.copy
March 4th 2022
- Moonraker API Version 1.0.1
- The
server.websocket.id
endpoint has been deprecated. It is recommended to useserver.connection.identify
method to identify your client. This method returns aconnection_id
which is the websocket's unique id. See the documentation for details.
May 8th 2021
- The
file_manager
has been refactored to support system file file events throughinotify
. Only mutableroots
are monitored, (currentlygcodes
andconfig
). Subfolders within these these roots are also monitored, however hidden folders are not. The following changes API changes have been made to acccommodate this functionality:- The
notify_filelist_changed
actions have changed. The new actions are as follows:create_file
: sent when a new file has been created. This includes file uploads and copied files.create_dir
: sent when a new directory has been created.delete_file
: sent when a file has been deleted.delete_dir
: sent when a directory has been deleted.move_file
: sent when a file has moved.move_dir
: sent when a directory has moved.modify_file
: sent when an existing file has been modifiedroot_update
: sent when a root directory location has been set. For example, if a user changes the gcode path in Klipper, this action is sent with anotify_filelist_changed
notification.
- File list notifications for gcode files are now only sent after all metadata has been processed. Likewise, requests to copy, move, or upload a file will only return after metadata has been processed. Notifications are synced with requests so that the request should always return before the notification is sent.
- Thumbnails are now stored in the
.thumbs
directory to prevent changes to thumbnails from emitting filelist notications. This change will be reflected in the metadata'srelative_path
field, so clients that use this field should not need to take additional action. Note that existing thumbnails will remain in thethumbs
directory and filelist notifications will be sent for changes to these thumbnails. - The
notify_metadata_update
notification has been removed Clients - can reliably expect metadata to be available for new or moved gcode files when a request returns.
- The return values for several endpoints have been updated. They
now contain information similar to that which is pushed by the
notify_filelist_changed
notification.
- The
- The deprecated
data
field in gcode metadata has been removed. Thesize
field now returns the size of the.png
file.
March 15th 2021
- The
data
field for gcode thumbnails is now deprecated and will be removed in the near future. Thumbnails are now saved to png files in athumbs
directory relative to a gcode file's location. This path is available in therelative_path
field for each thumbnail entry in the metadata.
January 31st 2021
- The
GET /server/temperature_store
endpoint now only returns fields that each sensor reports. For example, if a particuarly temperature sensor does not report "target" or "power", then the corresponding fields will not be reported for that sensor in response to thetemperature_store
request.
January 22nd 2021
- The
POST /machine/update/client
endpoint now requires aname
argument. This change added multiple client support - The response to
GET /machine/update/status
no longer returns aclient
field. Instead it will add fields matching thename
of each configured client. Keep in mind that the client object could have a different set of fields depending on the type of a client. The easy way to check for this is to see if abranch
field is present. If so, this client is agit repo
. Otherwise it is aweb
client.
January 4th 2021
- A
notify_update_refreshed
notification has been added. Moonraker now auto-refreshes the update status at roughly a 2 hour interval. When an auto-refresh is complete this notification is broadcast. Included is an object that matches the response from/machine/update/status
. - The behavior of some of the
update_manager
APIs has changed:- The
refresh
argument for/machine/update/status
is now more of a suggestion than a rule. If an update or a print is in progress then the request will ignore the refresh argument and immediately return the current status. Generally speaking requesting a refresh should not be necessary with addition of auto refresh. - The update requests (ie
/machine/update/klipper
) will now return an error if a print is in progress. If the requested update is in progress then the request will return valid with a message stating that the update is in progress. If another object is being updated then the request will be queued and block until it its complete.
- The
January 1st 2021
- A
notify_klippy_shutdown
websocket notification has been added
December 30th 2020
- Some additional fields are now reported in the response to
GET /machine/update/status
.
November 28th 2020
- The following new endpoints are available when the
[update_manager]
section has been configured:GET /machine/update/status
POST /machine/update/moonraker
POST /machine/update/klipper
POST /machine/update/client
POST /machine/update/system
- The following endpoint has been added and is available as part of the
core API:
POST /machine/services/restart
See web_api.md for details on these new endpoints.
November 23rd 2020
- Moonraker now serves Klipper's "docs" directory. This can be access
at
GET /server/files/docs/<filename>
.
November 19th 2020
- The path for the power APIs has changed from
gpio_power
todevice_power
:GET /machine/device_power/devices
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"machine.device_power.devices","id":"1"}
Returns an array of objects listing all detected devices. Each object in the array is guaranteed to have the following fields:device
: The device namestatus
: May be "init", "on", "off", or "error"type
: May be "gpio" or "tplink_smartplug"
GET /machine/device_power/status?dev_name
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"machine.device_power.status","id":"1", "params":{"dev_name":null}}
It is no longer possible to call this method with no arguments. Status will only be returned for the requested device, to get status of all devices use/machine/device_power/devices
. As before, this returns an object in the format of{device_name: status}
, where device_name is the name of the device andstatus
is the devices current status.POST /machine/device_power/on?dev_name
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"machine.device_power.on","id":"1", "params":{"dev_name":null}}
Toggles device on. Returns the current status of the device.POST /machine/device_power/off?dev_name
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"machine.device_power.off","id":"1", "params":{"dev_name":null}}
Toggles device off. Returns the current status of the device.- The
notify_power_changed
notification now includes an object containing device info, matching that which would be recieved from a single item in/machine/power/devices
.
November 12th 2020
- Two new fields have been added to the gcode metadata:
gcode_start_byte
: Indicates the byte position in the file where the first "Gxx" or "Mxx" command is detected.gcode_end_byte
: Indicates the byte position in the file where the last "Gxx" or "Mxx" command is detected. These fields may be used to more accurately predict print progress based on the file size.
November 11th 2020
- The
server.websocket.id
API has been added. This returns a unique ID that Moonraker uses to track each client connection. As such, this API is only available over the websocket, there is no complementary HTTP request. - All HTTP API request may now include arguments in either the query string or in the request's body.
- Subscriptions are now managed on a per connection basis. Each connection will only recieve updates for objects in which they are currently subscribed. If an "empty" request is sent, the subscription will be cancelled.
- The
POST /printer/object/subscribe
now requires aconnection_id
argument. This is used to identify which connection's associated subscription should be updated. Currenlty subscriptions are only supported over the a websocket connection, one may use the id received fromserver.websocket.id
. - The
notify_klippy_ready
websocket notification has been added.
November 2nd 2020
- The
GET /server/files/directory
endpoint now accepts a new optional argument,extended
. Ifextended=true
, then the data returned for gcode files will also include extracted metadata if it exists.
October 25th 2020
- The
modified
field reported for files and directories is no longer represented as a string. It is now a floating point value representing unix time (in seconds). This can be used to display the "last modified date" based on the client's timezone.
October 21st 2020
- The
/server/gcode_store
endpoint no longer returns a string in the result'sgcode_store
field. It now returns an Array of objects, each object containingmessage
andtime
fields. The time refers to a timestamp in unix time (seconds), and may be used to determine when the gcode store received the accompanyingmessage
.
September 30th 2020
- Two new endpoints have been added:
GET /server/info
(server.info
)GET /server/gcode_store
(server.gcode_store
) See web_api.md for details on their usage.
September 7th 2020
- A new websocket API has been added,
server.files.delete_file
:
Where is either "gcodes" or "config", and <file_name> is the relative path to the file for deletion. For example:{jsonrpc: "2.0", method: "server.files.delete_file", params: {path: "<root>/<file_name>"}, id: <request id>}
path: "gcodes/my_sub_dir/my_gcode_file.gcode"
September 3rd 2020
- The Websocket APIs have changed for clarity. The APIs methods now
use namespaces similar to those found in common programming languages.
This change affects all websocket APIs, however websocket events have
not changed. Below is a chart mapping the Previous API to the New API:
Previous Websocket Method New Websocket Method get_printer_info printer.info post_printer_emergency_stop printer.emergency_stop post_printer_restart printer.restart post_printer_firmware_restart printer.firmware_restart get_printer_objects_list printer.objects.list get_printer_objects_query printer.objects.query post_printer_objects_subscribe printer.objects.subscribe get_printer_query_endstops_status printer.query_endstops.status post_printer_gcode_script printer.gcode.script get_printer_gcode_help printer.gcode.help post_printer_print_start printer.print.start post_printer_print_pause printer.print.pause post_printer_print_resume printer.print.resume post_printer_print_cancel printer.print.cancel post_machine_reboot machine.reboot post_machine_shutdown machine.shutdown get_server_temperature_store server.temperature_store get_file_list server.files.list get_file_metadata server.files.metadata get_directory server.files.get_directory post_directory server.files.post_directory delete_directory server.files.delete_directory post_file_move server.files.move post_file_copy server.files.copy - The "power" plugin APIs have changed. This affects both HTTP and
Websocket APIs. They were originally added to the "/printer" path,
however this adds the possibility of a naming conflict. The new
APIs are as follows:
GET /machine/gpio_power/devices
:machine.gpio_power.devices
GET /machine/gpio_power/status
:machine.gpio_power.status
POST /machine/gpio_power/on
:machine.gpio_power.on
POST /machine/gpio_power/off
:machine.gpio_power.off
September 1st 2020
-
A new notification has been added:
notify_metdata_update
. This notification is sent when Moonraker parses metdata from a new upload. Note that the upload must be made via the API, files manually (using SAMBA, SCP, etc) do not trigger a notification. The notification is sent in the following format:{jsonrpc: "2.0", method: "notify_metadata_update", params: [metadata]}
Where
metadata
is an object in the following format:{ filename: "file name", size: <file size>, modified: "last modified date", slicer: "Slicer Name", first_layer_height: <in mm>, layer_height: <in mm>, object_height: <in mm>, estimated_time: <time in seconds>, filament_total: <in mm>, thumbnails: [ { width: <in pixels>, height: <in pixels>, size: <length of string>, data: <base64 string> }, ... ] }
August 16th 2020
-
The structure of data returned from
/printer/info
(get_printer_info
) has changed to the following format:{ state: "<klippy state>", state_message: "<current state message>", hostname: "<hostname>", software_version: "<version>", cpu_info: "<cpu_info>", klipper_path: "<moonraker use only>", python_path: "<moonraker use only>", log_file: "<moonraker use only>", config_file: "<moonraker use only>", }
The "state" item can be one of the following:
- "startup" - Klippy is in the process of starting up
- "ready" - Klippy is ready
- "shutdown" - Klippy has shutdown
- "error" - Klippy has experienced an error during startup
The message from each state can be found in the
state_message
. -
A
webhooks
printer object has been added, available for subscription or query. It includes the following items:state
- Printer state identical to that returned from/printer/info
state_message
- identical to that returned from/printer/info
-
/printer/objects/status
(get_printer_objects_status
) has been renamed to/printer/objects/query
(get_printer_objects_query
). The format of the websocket request has changed, it should now look like the following:{ jsonrpc: "2.0", method: "get_printer_objects_query", params: { objects: { gcode: null, toolhead: ["position", "status"] } }, id: <request id> }
As shown above, printer objects are now wrapped in an "objects" parameter. When a client wishes to subscribe to all items of a printer object, they should now be set to
null
rather than an empty array. The return value has also changed:{ eventtime: <klippy time of update>, status: { gcode: { busy: true, gcode_position: [0, 0, 0 ,0], ...}, toolhead: { position: [0, 0, 0, 0], status: "Ready", ...}, ...} }
The
status
item now contains the requested status. -
/printer/objects/subscription
(post_printer_objects_subscription
) is nowprinter/objects/subscribe
(post_printer_objects_subscribe
). This request takes parameters in the same format as thequery
. It now returns state for all currently subscribed objects (in the same format as aquery
). This data can be used to initialize all local state after the request completes. -
Subscriptions are now pushed as "diffs". Clients will only recieve updates for subscribed items when that data changes. This requires that clients initialize their local state with the data returned from the subscription request.
-
The structure of data returned from
/printer/objects/list
has changed. It now returns an array of available printer objects:{ objects: ["gcode", "toolhead", "bed_mesh", "configfile",....]}
-
The
notify_klippy_state_changed
notification has been removed. Clients can subscribe towebhooks
and usewebhooks.state
to be notified of transitions to the "ready" and "shutdown" states -
A
notify_klippy_disconnected
event has been added to notify clients when the connection between Klippy and Moonraker has been terminated. This event is sent with no parameters:{jsonrpc: "2.0", method: "notify_klippy_disconnected"}
