Moonraker Api always "null"

[3vilson]

I wan't to use Rainmeter to access the moonrakerAPI but http://fluiddpi.local/api/job isn't updating :( .
Am I missing something ?

{"job": {"file": {"name": null}, "estimatedPrintTime": null, "filament": {"length": null}, "user": null}, "progress": {"completion": null, "filepos": null, "printTime": null, "printTimeLeft": null, "printTimeOrigin": null}, "state": "Operational"}

That appears to be an octoprint_compat API. Those APIs return the bare minimum necessary to function with Cura and PrusaSlicer, they don't actually track print state. You will need to use the APIs outlined in the documentation if you want to query printer state.

I tried

[octoprint_compat]
enable_ufp: True

in moonraker.conf but that didn't change anything.

/api/version
/api/printer
/api/settings

work without any problem.

[Arksine]

The APIs report the bare minimum necessary to function with the slicers. They don't track print state, they just report placeholders. In the case of /api/job they are null values.

Oh I got it now. Thanks . So it's only possible on Octoprint.

[Arksine]

If you are using a Rainmeter widget is designed specifically for use with OctoPrint then yes. It would be possible to create a widget that interfaces with Moonraker's APIs though.

[3vilson]

Okay so if I understood it correctly you have to call the Moonraker API with http://fluiddpi.local/moonraker/api/request/.
But then I only get to the normal interface :(.

Is there not also a text based API page ?
