GCodeUtils

GCodeUtils is a set of utilities to manipulate GCode programs. It is targetting RepRap oriented GCode but isn't limited to RepRap.

Currently, it is composed of one calibration generation program, a basic gcode modifier (which translates code along X/Y or convert extrusion distance to relative) and a stretcher to increase hole size of printed parts.

Installation

GCodeUtils is installable from PyPI with a single pip command:

pip install gcodeutils

Alternatively, GCodeUtils can be run directly from sources after a git pull:

git clone https://github.com/zeograd/gcodeutils.git
cd gcodeutils && python setup.py install

or directly from its git repository:

pip install git+https://github.com/zeograd/gcodeutils.git

Once GCodeUtils is installed, the .py files located in the cura_plugins subdirectory can be copied into the plugins directory of Cura to be callable from within Cura itself.
