Introduces a new "Proxy Mode" for the Virtual Printer that enables
remote printing from anywhere in the world without VPN, port forwarding,
or Bambu Cloud dependency.
Bambuddy acts as a TLS relay between a remote slicer (Bambu Studio/
OrcaSlicer) and the local Bambu Lab printer:
Remote Slicer → Internet → Bambuddy Server → Local Network → Printer
The slicer connects to Bambuddy using the real printer's serial number
and access code. Bambuddy authenticates and relays all FTP (file transfer)
and MQTT (commands/status) traffic with end-to-end TLS encryption.
- No port forwarding required - printer stays safely on local network
- No VPN needed - connect from coffee shops, hotels, work, anywhere
- No Bambu Cloud dependency - fully self-hosted solution
- End-to-end TLS encryption on FTP (port 9990) and MQTT (port 8883)
- Works with Bambu Studio and OrcaSlicer
- Uses real printer credentials for authentication
- Automatic printer selection from connected printers
- Add SlicerProxyManager class for TLS relay (tcp_proxy.py)
- TLS termination with auto-generated certificates
- Concurrent FTP and MQTT proxy servers
- Connection lifecycle management with proper cleanup
- Extend VirtualPrinterManager with proxy mode support
- New 'proxy' mode alongside archive/review/queue modes
- Target printer selection and credential management
- Add proxy configuration endpoints to settings API
- Add permission checks for proxy endpoints
- Add Proxy Mode card to Virtual Printer settings
- Target printer dropdown for proxy destination
- Real-time proxy status display (ports, target, running state)
- Full i18n support (English, German)
- Add network architecture diagram
- Add proxy mode section to README
- Add comprehensive guide to wiki
- Add prominent feature section to website
- Backend unit tests for SlicerProxyManager
- Backend unit tests for proxy mode configuration
- Frontend tests for proxy mode UI components
Closes#207#170
Several frontend components were using raw fetch() instead of the API
client, causing 401 Unauthorized errors when authentication is enabled.
Changes:
- SpoolmanSettings: Use api.getSpoolmanSettings/updateSpoolmanSettings
- ProjectsPage: Use api.importProjectFile for ZIP imports
- ProjectDetailPage: Use api.exportProjectZip for exports
- CameraPage/EmbeddedCameraViewer: Use api.getCameraStatus
Added to API client:
- getSpoolmanSettings()
- updateSpoolmanSettings()
- importProjectFile()
- exportProjectZip()
- getCameraStatus()
Added tests for auth token handling in client.test.ts
Fixed VirtualPrinterSettings test expectations to match i18n strings
Closes#231
Both frontend and backend were blocking printers that already had any
smart plug linked, preventing users from adding multiple HA entities
to the same printer.
Changes:
- Frontend: Only filter out printers with existing Tasmota plugs
- Backend: Only check for duplicate Tasmota plugs on create/update
- HA entities (switches, scripts, lights, etc.) can now be linked
multiple times to the same printer for different automations
- Tasmota plugs remain limited to one per printer (physical device)
- Restored "Show on Printer Card" toggle for HA entities
- Fixed printer card only showing script.* entities; now shows all
HA entities with the toggle enabled
- HA entities now default to auto_on=False and auto_off=False
- Printer cards now update immediately when HA entities change
Closes#214
Load project relationship in ArchiveService.get_archive() alongside
created_by. Async SQLAlchemy doesn't support lazy loading, so project
must be eagerly loaded for archive_to_response() to access project.name.
