OctoFarm was built to fill a need that anyone with multiple 3D printers with Octoprint will have run into. How do I manage multiple printers from one place? That's where OctoFarm steps in, add your OctoPrint instances to the system and it will scan and keep you up to date on the status of your printers.
Built by a maker, for makers to get more out of their OctoPrint run farms.
- Manager your OctoPrint instances right down to triggering Updates and Plugin installs.
- Keep a track of all the live data on your farm with a selection of views.
- Manage your OctoPrint file system.
- Get an overview of your farm with the customisable dashboard.
- Manage and track filament on your farm.
- Track history and logs for all of your instances.
- Supports a wide variety of OctoPrint plugins to augment the OctoFarm system with more information.

Before installing, it is best to read the getting started documents here: Getting Started
Check out the OctoFarm documentation website for installation instructions on various platforms Getting Started

git clone https://github.com/NotExpectedYet/OctoFarm.git- Install the mono-repo eslint dependencies (eslint, prettier and nodemon)
npm install- Install server and client dependencies
npm run setup-dev- Create an
.envfile in the OctoFarm folder's root directory. e.g.OctoFarm/.env. Paste in the contents below.
NODE_ENV=development
MONGO=mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/octofarm
OCTOFARM_PORT=4000- Build the latest client
npm run build-client- (Optional): Watch for client changes, requires a secondary console.
npm run dev-client- Start the server
npm run server-dev- The developer version uses nodemon for live server reloading on changes. It will output all the logs to the console.
I don't mind taking contributions to the code. Just be warned OctoFarm is an ever evolving environment due to how it was originally a learning project for myself and JavaScript.
It's a great repository if anyone would like to practice their code clean-up and refactoring skills.
Currently I'm planning to fix this with V2.0 but that is held on a private repository.
If you'd like to contribute something, then please take a look at the open project on this repository, or feel free to open a discussion with your plans.
