The client has been developed as part of a research programme investigating agent-based manufacturing systems. It is isomorphic capable of running on server (Node.js) and client-side (Browser) applications.
To install the package, use the following code. I am aiming to put it onto npm soon.
pnpm install @jamesgopsill/octoprint-client
You can then use in your code:
Typescript / Javascript (ESM)
import { OctoPrintClient } from "@jamesgopsill/octoprint-client"
// Create a new client.
const client = new OctoPrintClient("OCTOPRINT_URL", "API_KEY")
const response = await client.version()
if (response.ok) {
console.log(response.data)
}
Javascript (CJS)
const octo = require("@jamesgopsill/octoprint-client")
// Create a new client.
const client = new octo.OctoPrintClient("OCTOPRINT_URL", "API_KEY")
const response = await client.version()
if (response.ok) {
console.log(response.data)
}
To test the client, we use the OctoPrint docker image and spin up a local instance that the client can interface with. To spin up an instance, you will need docker installed. Then simply cd into the __tests__/octoprint directory and run:
docker-compose up
To create the Octoprint instance that can be accessed at http://localhost.

We would love to have additional contributors to the project to help us maintain and add functionality to the project.
The project has been supported by the EPSRC-funded Brokering Additive Manufacturing project (EP/V05113X/1). More details on the project can be found at the Design Manufacturing Futures Lab website.
