README/certs/README/.env.example/printers.example.toml were all still describing this as a learning-stage stub with no real printer protocol clients - rewritten to reflect the real Bambu MQTT client, cert auto-pinning, and marlin serial connection that now exist. - Remove examples/fetch_bambu_cert.rs: its manual fetch-and-save workflow is now what BambuPrinter::connect()'s ensure_trusted does automatically on every connect, so it has no remaining use case. - Fix examples/printer_polymorphism.rs, which no longer compiled - dispatch_gcode was replaced by real methods earlier this session; swapped in print_status() as the vendor-only-extension example. - Remove Config::bambu_ca_cert_overrides/bambu_require_valid_cert and the .env vars documenting them - confirmed dead (nothing read them), fully superseded by printers.toml's per-printer ca_cert_path/ require_valid_cert plus automatic trust-on-first-connect pinning. - Fix stale doc comments in printer/mod.rs and printer/bambu.rs that described certificate trust and MQTT as not built yet, or referencing the now-removed example. No behavior change in the daemon itself - verified with cargo build --examples and a live run of printer_polymorphism and auto_connect_bambu against the real P1P/H2C printers.

# continuum-proxy
|
|
|
|
Edge gateway daemon for the Continuum print farm platform. Runs on a Linux
|
|
SBC on-site, talks to printers over the LAN, and keeps a connection to the
|
|
cloud control plane (`continuum-backend`).
|
|
|
|
## What's real right now
|
|
|
|
- **Bambu MQTT** - a real client for both protocol generations (MQTT
|
|
v3.1.1+BambuMQTT v1 on older firmware, MQTT v5+BambuMQTT v2 on current
|
|
firmware), auto-detected per printer on connect (a firmware update can
|
|
move the same physical printer between them, so this isn't something
|
|
config can hard-code once and forget - see `printer/bambu.rs`'s
|
|
`BambuProtocolPreference::Auto`). Request/reply correlation via
|
|
`sequence_id`, an in-memory `print.push_status` cache that merges v1's
|
|
partial updates and replaces on v2's full ones, and TLS trust that
|
|
auto-pins a printer's certificate via trust-on-first-connect the first
|
|
time the bundled CA doesn't verify (`printer/bambu.rs`'s
|
|
`ensure_trusted`) - see `printer/bambu_mqtt.rs`'s doc comment for the
|
|
full protocol write-up.
|
|
- **Marlin/RepRap serial** - a real held-open serial connection that paces
|
|
gcode lines by Marlin's own "ok" acknowledgment (`printer/marlin_serial.rs`).
|
|
- **Wire shapes from schemas, not hand duplication** - Bambu's raw MQTT
|
|
JSON is built straight from `continuum-schemas`' JSON Schema files via
|
|
`continuum-schema-instance`, instead of a second hand-written copy of
|
|
every request shape drifting out of sync with the schema.
|
|
- **Cloud uplink** - a WebSocket client to `continuum-backend` that
|
|
connects, sends a heartbeat on a timer, and reconnects on drop
|
|
(`src/uplink/`).
|
|
- **go2rtc watchdog** - restarts the camera-restreaming subprocess if it
|
|
dies (`src/go2rtc.rs`).
|
|
|
|
## What's still a stub
|
|
|
|
PrusaLink (REST) and Klipper/Moonraker (WebSocket) - `printer/prusa.rs`
|
|
and `printer/klipper.rs` just `println!` what they'd send. Also not built
|
|
yet: dispatching a cloud-issued command to a connected printer (the uplink
|
|
and the printer fleet run side by side in `main.rs`, but nothing routes
|
|
between them yet), local buffering for telemetry across connectivity gaps,
|
|
LAN printer discovery (SSDP/mDNS), and the mechanical plate-changer
|
|
interface.
|
|
|
|
## Getting started
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cp .env.example .env
|
|
cargo run # the daemon: connects every configured printer, then runs the cloud uplink + go2rtc watchdog
|
|
|
|
cp printers.example.toml printers.toml # fill in your real printers (gitignored)
|
|
cargo run --example auto_connect_bambu # checks/auto-pins each Bambu printer's certificate, no MQTT needed
|
|
cargo run --example test_bambu_certs # narrower: just the raw TLS handshake, no auto-pinning
|
|
cargo run --example printer_polymorphism # standalone trait+enum demo, fake data, no network/env needed
|
|
cargo run --example bambu_commands_demo # round-trips hand-written structs against real captured Bambu JSON
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Structure
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
src/
|
|
main.rs Loads+connects the printer fleet, then runs the uplink and go2rtc watchdog side by side
|
|
config.rs Loads settings from environment variables
|
|
fleet.rs Loads printers.toml into ready-to-use PrinterHandles
|
|
uplink/ WebSocket client to continuum-backend: connect, heartbeat, reconnect on drop
|
|
go2rtc.rs Restarts the go2rtc camera-restreaming process if it dies
|
|
printer/
|
|
mod.rs GenericPrinter trait + PrinterBase + PrinterHandle enum - the trait+enum
|
|
"inheritance" pattern this project uses instead of class inheritance
|
|
bambu.rs The real Bambu printer type: cert trust, protocol version auto-detect, commands
|
|
bambu_mqtt.rs The real MQTT wiring underneath bambu.rs - see its doc comment for the protocol details
|
|
bambu_commands/ Hand-written serde structs mirroring continuum-schemas' bambulab/ shapes
|
|
marlin_serial.rs A real held-open Marlin/RepRap serial connection
|
|
prusa.rs, klipper.rs Still stubs - see "What's still a stub" above
|
|
examples/
|
|
auto_connect_bambu.rs Checks/auto-pins every Bambu printer's certificate (no MQTT)
|
|
test_bambu_certs.rs Narrower: just a raw TLS handshake per Bambu printer
|
|
printer_polymorphism.rs Standalone trait+enum demo, five fake printers, no network needed
|
|
bambu_commands_demo.rs Round-trips bambu_commands' structs against real captured Bambu JSON
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`printers.toml` (gitignored - copy from `printers.example.toml`) holds real
|
|
per-printer connection details: host, access code/API key/serial port
|
|
depending on vendor, and - for Bambu - an optional per-printer CA
|
|
certificate override (see `certs/README.md`; most printers don't need one,
|
|
since `connect()` auto-pins automatically).
|
|
|
|
## Learning Rust through this repo
|
|
|
|
`src/printer/mod.rs`'s doc comment is where the "how do I do inheritance
|
|
without classes" question lives - trait (shared behavior) + struct
|
|
(shared fields) + enum (the closed set of concrete types), instead of
|
|
`GenericPrinter -> BambuPrinter/PrusaLinkPrinter/...` class inheritance.
|
|
Run `printer_polymorphism` to see it work end to end without needing any
|
|
real printer on the network.
