Spoolman

Spoolman is a standalone filament manager. Bambuddy can sync with it:

• Bi-directional spool inventory sync
• Per-filament usage tracking
• Fill level display in Bambuddy UI

Setup: Settings > Integrations > Enter your Spoolman URL

MQTT (Home Assistant, Node-RED)

Bambuddy publishes printer telemetry to an MQTT broker, making it easy to build automations:

• Printer status (idle, printing, paused, error)
• Current print progress, temperature, speed
• Filament usage, AMS status
• Print completion events

Setup: Settings > MQTT > Enter your broker address

Example HA automation: Turn on lights when a print finishes, send a mobile notification, or trigger a camera snapshot.

Prometheus Metrics

Export printer telemetry for Grafana dashboards:

• Print time, filament usage, temperatures
• Queue status, print success rates
• Per-printer and per-filament breakdowns

Endpoint: http://your-bambuddy:5000/metrics

Smart Plugs

Control printer power automatically:

• Tasmota — Direct HTTP API control
• Home Assistant — Control any HA switch entity
• MQTT — Zigbee2MQTT, Shelly, or any MQTT-controlled plug

Features:

• Auto power-on before scheduled prints
• Auto power-off after bed cooldown
• Energy consumption tracking (per-print kWh and cost)
