With Auto Off enabled and another job queued, the smart plug cut power when a
print finished and immediately re-powered the printer because the scheduler
saw pending items. The printer booted fresh into IDLE and the next job
auto-dispatched, bypassing the "Clear Plate & Start Next" confirmation.
Root cause: the plate-clear gate lived only in PrinterManager._plate_cleared
(in-memory set) and _is_printer_idle treated IDLE as unconditionally idle. On
power cycle the in-memory flag was lost and the IDLE-on-boot state skipped
the gate entirely.
Fix:
- Replace the in-memory flag with an awaiting_plate_clear column on the
printers table, rehydrated into the PrinterManager at startup.
- Set the flag in on_print_complete for completed/failed prints (not user
cancellations); clear it on ack and on scheduler dispatch.
- _is_printer_idle now short-circuits to not-idle whenever require_plate_clear
is on and the flag is set, regardless of the currently reported state —
so the gate holds through power cycles, Bambuddy restarts, and the printer
booting back into IDLE.
- /printers/{id}/clear-plate no longer requires the printer to report
FINISH/FAILED; it accepts the ack whenever the flag is raised.
- Frontend widgets (PrinterQueueWidget, Layout, BulkPrinterToolbar) gate on
the flag rather than reported state.
Tests: added regression tests for IDLE+awaiting=True (the #961 case) and
full DB round-trip tests for the persistence layer.
The prior fix (9f643724) added a list branch to _strip_container but only
walked one level deep. SQLAlchemy's insertmanyvalues feature can pass
parameters as nested containers (e.g. a list of tuples, or a tuple inside
a list) depending on the dialect path, so the inner tz-aware datetimes
still reached asyncpg and the hourly snapshot loop kept failing with:
asyncpg.DataError: invalid input for query argument $2: ...
(can't subtract offset-naive and offset-aware datetimes)
Replaced the two-helper design with a single recursive _strip() that
walks dict/list/tuple at any depth. One top-level call now handles every
parameter shape SQLAlchemy may use, regardless of executemany or the
insertmanyvalues batching path.
The hourly smart plug energy snapshot loop introduced with #941 crashed
every cycle on PostgreSQL installs with:
asyncpg.DataError: invalid input for query argument $2:
datetime.datetime(..., tzinfo=datetime.timezone.utc)
(can't subtract offset-naive and offset-aware datetimes)
The engine has a `before_cursor_execute` hook that strips tzinfo from
aware datetimes before they reach asyncpg (all schema datetime columns
are TIMESTAMP WITHOUT TIME ZONE). The hook's `_strip_container` handled
dict and tuple parameter containers but fell through `list` unchanged.
When SQLAlchemy's insertmanyvalues feature batches two or more rows into
a single INSERT ... SELECT FROM (VALUES ...) statement, it passes the
positional params as a flat `list`, so the tz-aware datetimes survived
the hook and reached asyncpg.
Added a list branch that mirrors the tuple one. No schema change needed
— the column stays naive UTC like the rest of the codebase. SQLite was
never affected.
LDAP auto-provisioning hit a NOT NULL constraint error on upgraded SQLite
installs because the existing migration only ran on PostgreSQL. The SQLite
branch now patches sqlite_master via writable_schema and bumps schema_version
so the change takes effect without a restart. Fresh installs were unaffected.
The Statistics page reported "Gesamt" (All Time) kWh correctly but showed
zero for Today/Week/Month in total-consumption mode. Two bugs drove it:
1. The starting plug counter was kept in an in-memory dict
`_print_energy_start` that was lost on any backend restart mid-print, so
the per-print `energy_kwh` delta silently never got computed. The stats
endpoint's fallback path `SUM(PrintArchive.energy_kwh)` therefore summed
to zero for users running in total mode.
2. Total-consumption mode has no per-print delta by design — it includes
idle/preheat/standby — so the fallback to archive rows was the wrong
strategy even when the data existed.
Fix, in two parts:
- Persist `energy_start_kwh` on the archive row and read it back from a
fresh session at print end. Deletes `_print_energy_start` and its 5
call sites, replacing them with a single `_record_energy_start()` helper.
Per-print tracking is now restart-resilient regardless of tracking mode.
- Add hourly `smart_plug_energy_snapshots` table + `_snapshot_loop()` in
SmartPlugManager. Rewrote the `/archives/stats` energy branch as
`_sum_snapshot_deltas()` which computes per-plug
`max(0, last-in-range - baseline)` where baseline is the latest snapshot
at or before the range start, falling back to the earliest-ever snapshot
and signalling `energy_data_warming_up` when no pre-range baseline
exists (fresh upgrade). MQTT plugs are skipped from snapshots since they
only report "today" and have no lifetime counter.
Frontend: QuickStatsWidget renders an AlertTriangle next to Energy Used /
Energy Cost with a tooltip when `energy_data_warming_up` is true, so the
"low values right after upgrading" situation is explained in-product.
Fully localised across 7 UI languages.
Tests: new backend unit tests cover the snapshot delta arithmetic
(baseline/endpoint, counter reset clamp, multi-plug, warming-up fallback,
endpoint windowing), per-print restart resilience via expunge_all, and the
snapshot task lifecycle (start idempotent, stop cancels). Frontend tests
assert the warning icon appears only when the flag is set and only on the
energy tiles.
Docs: updated `CHANGELOG.md`, `README.md`, wiki `features/energy.md`,
wiki `features/statistics.md`, and website `features.html` with the new
behaviour and warming-up explanation.
Users can authenticate against an LDAP/AD server with configurable
server URL, bind DN, search base, and user filter. Supports StartTLS
and LDAPS — plaintext is not allowed. Both Active Directory (memberOf)
and POSIX groups (memberUid) are mapped to BamBuddy groups on each
login. Auto-provisioning creates local accounts on first LDAP login.
Local admin accounts remain as fallback when LDAP is unreachable.
Password management is disabled for LDAP users.
Queue status update (printing → completed) failed silently when SQLite
was locked by another writer, leaving ghost jobs permanently stuck in
printing status. Add run_with_retry() for SQLite lock retries and split
runtime tracker into per-printer commits to reduce lock hold time.
Per-model start/end G-code snippets configurable in Settings (Workflow
tab). Queue items get "Inject G-code" toggle — scheduler injects
snippets into a temp 3MF copy before FTP upload. Supports Farmloop,
SwapMod, AutoClear, Printflow 3D and similar bed-clearing systems.
Original files are never modified.
An API key with printer_ids=[] was treated the same as null (global
access) due to a falsy check. Now None means global access and []
means no printer access. Added a startup migration to normalize any
existing [] rows to NULL so they retain their intended global access.
Also fixed the webhook /queue endpoint which used the same falsy
check, allowing []-scoped keys to see all printers.
New SJF toggle badge on the queue page. When enabled, the scheduler
picks shorter print jobs before longer ones instead of FIFO. A
starvation guard flags jobs that get skipped once, moving them to
the front on the next cycle so long jobs can't be postponed indefinitely.
- Add print_time_seconds and been_jumped columns to PrintQueueItem
- Cache print duration from 3MF metadata at queue item creation
- SJF query: printer_id, target_model, been_jumped DESC, print_time_seconds ASC, position
- Mark jumped items in-memory after each print start
- Toggle badge on queue page header with live state indicator
- Frontend auto-sorts to match scheduler order when SJF enabled
- Settings schema, boolean parsing, and migration (SQLite + PostgreSQL)
- i18n badge keys for all 7 locales
- 10 integration tests for SJF ordering and starvation logic
- Wiki, website, README, and changelog updated
Bambuddy can now use an external PostgreSQL database via the
DATABASE_URL environment variable. SQLite remains the default.
Dialect-aware helpers handle upserts, PRAGMAs, FTS (FTS5 vs
tsvector+GIN), backup/restore, and health checks. All migration
blocks use savepoints to prevent Postgres transaction poisoning.
Backups are always portable SQLite format regardless of backend.
Cross-database restore imports SQLite backups into PostgreSQL
with automatic boolean/datetime conversion, NOT NULL default
filling, and FK constraint handling.
REST/Webhook smart plugs can now fetch power and energy data from
individual URLs instead of requiring all values in a single status
response. Each value falls back to the shared Status URL when no
separate URL is set, preserving backward compatibility. Added power
and energy multipliers for unit conversion (e.g. 0.001 for Wh→kWh).
GitHub backup can now optionally include spool inventory (with usage
history) and print archive metadata as JSON. Both toggles are off by
default. No binary files (gcode/3MF) are included.
Auto-off now has a "Keep Enabled" toggle that keeps it active between
prints instead of disabling after each use (one-shot). Useful for HA
accessories like BentoBox filters that should always power off after
prints. Default behavior (one-shot) is unchanged.
The daemon now collects CPU temp, core count, load average, memory/disk
usage, OS info, and system uptime every heartbeat using stdlib-only reads
from /proc and /sys. Stats are sent as a JSON blob in the heartbeat
payload, stored in a new system_stats TEXT column, and displayed in a
new "System" tab in SpoolBuddy Settings with color-coded usage bars.
The OTA update feature added update_status and update_message to the
SpoolBuddyDevice model but no ALTER TABLE migration, causing
"no such column: spoolbuddy_devices.update_status" on existing databases.

X1C and X1 virtual printers used legacy SSDP model codes
(3DPrinter-X1-Carbon, 3DPrinter-X1) that BambuStudio doesn't
recognize, causing "incompatible printer preset" errors when
sending prints. Changed to the correct codes (BL-P001, BL-P002)
that real printers report via SSDP.
Also fixed proxy mode auto-inherit storing printer display names
(e.g. "X1C") instead of SSDP codes, by adding a resolution layer
that maps display names to model codes.
DB migration auto-converts existing VPs on startup.
Per-printer camera rotation (0°/90°/180°/270°) for cameras mounted
in portrait or upside-down. CSS rotation for live views, Pillow
rotation for notification snapshots. Setting visible in external
camera config when enabled.
Printer File Manager Doesn't Auto-Refresh ([#704](https://github.com/maziggy/bambuddy/issues/704)) — The printer file manager (SD card browser) only fetched the file list once when opened. Files uploaded from BambuStudio/OrcaSlicer while the modal was open wouldn't appear until the user clicked the refresh button or reopened the modal. Now auto-refreshes every 30 seconds while open. Reported by @shadowjig.
Database Connection Pool Exhaustion Under Load ([#704](https://github.com/maziggy/bambuddy/issues/704)) — Background tasks (print scheduler FTP uploads, camera captures, notification sends, timelapse stitching) held database sessions open during slow network I/O, consuming connection pool slots for seconds at a time. With the default pool of 15 connections (size 5 + overflow 10), concurrent operations during print start/complete events could exhaust the pool, causing `QueuePool limit reached` errors and `greenlet_spawn` failures in RFID spool auto-assignment. Doubled the pool to 30 connections (size 10 + overflow 20). Reported by @shadowjig.
The migration that removes the UNIQUE constraint on smart_plugs.printer_id
used an exact substring match ("printer_id INTEGER UNIQUE") to detect the
constraint. Databases created with older SQLAlchemy versions may express
the constraint differently (quoted column names, table-level UNIQUE clause,
or separate UNIQUE indexes), causing the migration to silently skip.
Users hit "IntegrityError: UNIQUE constraint failed: smart_plugs.printer_id"
when assigning a second HA switch to a printer.
Replace the exact string match with regex pattern matching that handles
inline constraints, table-level UNIQUE(printer_id), quoted column names,
and standalone UNIQUE indexes.
Notify users when the first layer finishes printing so they can check
adhesion remotely. Triggers once per print when layer 2 begins
(layer_num >= 2, capped at <= 5 to handle reconnects). Includes a
camera snapshot attachment. Adds the on_first_layer_complete toggle
to all notification providers, with backend/frontend/i18n support
across all 7 locales.
Cloud credentials were stored globally — one Bambu Cloud account per
Bambuddy instance. When auth was enabled, any user logging into Cloud
overwrote everyone else's credentials. Credentials are now stored
per-user: each user gets their own independent Cloud login.
Also fixed cloud data endpoints (settings, fields, preset CRUD)
requiring settings:read/settings:update permissions instead of
cloud:auth — users who had "Cloud Auth" enabled but "Settings"
disabled couldn't load profiles after logging in.
Virtual printers in Queue mode now have an "Auto-dispatch" setting.
When enabled (default), prints start automatically — preserving current
behavior. When disabled, prints are added with manual_start so they
wait for manual dispatch from the queue UI.

Floating bug report button submits issues via bambuddy.cool relay (no GitHub
token needed locally). Collects 30s debug logs with printer push_all, sanitizes
all sensitive data, uploads logs as files to GitHub. Screenshot upload/paste/drag
with JPEG compression. Translated into all 7 languages. Includes 21 tests.
The slicer_binary_path key was left in the settings table from earlier
slicer integration research but is no longer referenced anywhere in the
codebase. Add a startup migration step that deletes orphaned settings
keys so they don't persist in backups.
Write NTAG213/215/216 tags for third-party spools via the SpoolBuddy
kiosk UI. New "Write" page with three workflows: existing spool, new
spool creation, and tag replacement. Backend encodes 133-byte OpenTag3D
NDEF payloads (material, color, brand, weight, temp). Daemon writes
page-by-page via PN5180 NTAG WRITE command with read-back verification.
Write commands flow through heartbeat polling with WebSocket status
updates. Includes 39 new tests and translations for all 6 languages.
SpoolBuddy's "Link to Spool" used the generic updateSpool API which only
set tag_uid, leaving tag_type and data_origin empty. Now uses linkTagToSpool
with tag_type='generic' and data_origin='nfc_link'.
Added a "Weight Check" inventory column (hidden by default) that compares
each spool's last scale measurement against calculated gross weight with
±50g tolerance. Shows green check for match, yellow warning + sync button
for mismatch. Backend stores last_scale_weight and last_weighed_at on each
spool when weight is synced via SpoolBuddy. Includes edge case handling
when scale weight < core weight. i18n keys added for all 6 locales.
Add weight_locked flag to spools that auto-sets when weight_used is
explicitly updated via the API. Both the MQTT AMS remain% auto-sync and
the manual force-sync endpoint skip locked spools. Usage tracker delta
tracking is unaffected. Users can re-enable AMS sync by setting
weight_locked to false.
When scheduling a print to "any printer" (model-based assignment),
users can now override the 3MF's original filament choices per slot.
The override dropdown shows compatible filaments loaded across all
printers of the selected model, filtered by type and nozzle (H2D).
The scheduler matches against overridden type/color instead of the
original 3MF values, preferring printers with exact color matches.
Backend:
- New GET /printers/available-filaments endpoint (aggregates loaded
filaments across printers of a model, includes extruder_id for
dual-nozzle nozzle-aware filtering)
- New filament_overrides JSON column on print_queue table
- Scheduler applies overrides before AMS mapping, clears tray_info_idx
on overridden slots so color matching takes priority
- Printer selection prefers printers with most override color matches
Frontend:
- New FilamentOverride component with per-slot override dropdowns
- Type-filtered options (PLA slots only show PLA)
- Nozzle-aware filtering (H2D: only shows filaments on correct extruder)
- Integrated into PrintModal for model-based queue mode
Tests:
- 11 backend unit tests (color match counting, override application)
- 12 frontend tests (rendering, type/nozzle filtering, interactions)
i18n: All 6 locales (en, de, fr, it, ja, pt-BR)
SpoolBuddy turns a Raspberry Pi 4B with a PN5180 NFC reader and
NAU7802 scale into a filament management station that integrates
with Bambuddy via REST API and WebSocket.
Backend: SpoolBuddyDevice model, 10 REST endpoints (/spoolbuddy/*),
6 WebSocket broadcast types, background offline-detection watchdog.
RPi daemon: asyncio service with concurrent NFC polling (300ms,
MIFARE Classic + Bambu HKDF key derivation), scale reading (10 SPS,
5-sample moving average, stability detection), and 10s heartbeat
with exponential backoff reconnect.
Frontend: kiosk-optimized 1024x600 UI at /spoolbuddy with Dashboard
(live weight + NFC spool detection), AMS Overview, Inventory,
Printers, and Settings pages. useSpoolBuddyState reducer hook
driven by WebSocket CustomEvents.
i18n: all 6 locales (en, de, fr, it, ja, pt-BR).
Multiple Virtual Printers:
- Each VP gets a dedicated bind IP with independent FTP, MQTT, SSDP, and Bind services
- New VirtualPrinter DB model, CRUD API (/api/virtual-printers), React UI
- VirtualPrinterList, VirtualPrinterCard, VirtualPrinterAddDialog components
- Per-instance TLS certificates (shared CA), 11 printer models, all 4 modes
- Auto-incremented serial suffixes, network interface override per VP
Dual Bind/Detect Ports (#445):
- Listen on both ports 3000 and 3002 for slicer bind/detect handshake
- Different BambuStudio/OrcaSlicer versions use different ports
- Applies to BindServer (server mode) and SlicerProxyManager (proxy mode)
- Updated Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, firewall rules in wiki
Also:
- Rewrote VP test suite for new multi-instance architecture (75 tests)

- Updated all 5 locales (en, de, ja, fr, it)
- Updated wiki and website for multi-VP + dual ports
- New multi-VP screenshot
Add a new `printers:clear_plate` permission so admins can grant
plate-clearing ability without full `printers:control` access.
Existing groups with `printers:control` automatically receive the
new permission on startup via migration.
Replace the cramped permission modal in Settings with a dedicated
full-page group editor (`/groups/new`, `/groups/:id/edit`) featuring
search filtering, select all/clear all, category-level toggles,
and a responsive 2-column permission grid. Remove dead GroupsPage
code that was never routed.
- Backend: new Permission enum, category, defaults, endpoint guard, migration
- Frontend: GroupEditPage, updated routes, removed modal from SettingsPage
- Tests: 10 backend + 10 frontend tests for new permission and editor
- Docs: updated wiki (auth, printer-control, API), website, changelog
- i18n: added group editor keys to all 6 locale files (en/de/ja/fr/pt-BR/it)
Add a chronological, table-based print log as a 4th view mode in the
Archives page. Log entries are stored in a separate print_log_entries
table — clearing the log never touches archives or queue items.
Backend:
- New PrintLogEntry model with independent table
- GET /print-log/ endpoint with search, printer, user, status, date filters
- DELETE /print-log/ clears only log entries
- Thumbnail serving endpoint for log entries
- write_log_entry() service called on print completion
- Auth: ARCHIVES_READ for viewing, ARCHIVES_DELETE_ALL for clearing
Frontend:
- New 'log' ViewMode with ClipboardList icon toggle
- Filterable/searchable table with pagination (10/25/50/100 rows)
- Colored status badges, duration formatting, filament color swatches
- Clear button with confirmation modal
- All filter state persisted to localStorage
- i18n: EN, DE, JA, FR, IT translations
Notify users when the print bed cools below a configurable threshold
(default 35°C) after a print finishes, so they know when to remove parts.
- Backend: DB migration, model, schemas, notification template, service
method, background cooldown monitor (polls every 15s, 30min timeout)
- Frontend: event toggle in provider card/modal, threshold setting in
Settings > Notifications, i18n keys for all 5 locales
- Tests: 4 backend + 4 frontend tests
- Docs: README, website, wiki updated
Dual-nozzle H2D/H2D Pro: filament matching now respects nozzle assignments
from the 3MF file. Each AMS unit feeds a specific nozzle (L/R), and the
scheduler/frontend constrain matching to only trays on the correct nozzle.
Falls back to unfiltered matching when no trays exist on the target nozzle.
L/R badges shown in the filament mapping UI. Translated in en/de/ja/it.
Fix AMS slot config overwritten on startup: on_ams_change unconditionally
unlinked BL spool assignments on every MQTT pushall, then re-assigned them
sending ams_filament_setting without setting_id — clearing the printer's
filament preset. Now compares spool RFID identifiers before unlinking.
Fix BL spool detection false positives: removed tray_info_idx from detection
logic in both backend is_bambu_lab_spool() and frontend isBambuLabSpool().
Third-party spools using Bambu generic presets had GF-prefixed tray_info_idx
values, causing misidentification. Now uses only tray_uuid and tag_uid.
SQLite WAL mode with 5s busy timeout reduces "database is locked" errors.
