I solved it, I found the correct plugin for 3.5.0.RC1 in https://github.com/MintyTrebor/BtnCmd/releases/tag/01.02.06.
100% installed and working.
Thanks to jay_s_uk for the advice.

You can mark as resolved.

@Phaedrux It's working now. Not sure what changed, but I did put it in a slightly different place this time.

Thank you, have a nice day 👍

@gloomyandy my bad...I assumed that latest version of plugin was also for last version of DWC, but it´s for a dev version my guess....

@jay_s_uk It seems only moves in a positive direction are allowed. For example I can configure x -40 to 40 or y from -40 to 40 but not from 40 to -40.

It would be nice to be able to import a series of moves from an actual print or text file containing coordinates to move through.

@stuartofmt Thanks, I just updated DSF to your latest install script.

@resam i hope that i can figurit out how it's go.
i am not so goo d at programing 🙂

@chrishamm
Thanks for the pointers. Due to the somewhat unique nature of my plugin, I've ended up with a combination of your suggestions and my own clumbsiness. Still, its working fine, not refreshing the page, and showing as "stopped" after a manual refresh 🙂

I'll releas this version sometime today.

@MintyTrebor said in Wresting with TS and 3.5.beta3 Need Help !:

@stuartofmt Looked at your code on github - I don't think you have to switch to typescript, you just need to change the way you use the inbuilt DWC functions (which is all I did with BtnCmd).

Many, many thanks. The need to switch (or not) to typescript was one of the things that I was very unsure of. Most of what I had read said "should not be necessary".
I had no idea about the change to the inbuilt functions - given a few weeks by myself, I may have stumbled on to that fact 🙂

I've compiled and tested on my end and everything is workin just fine. Again THANK YOU !!

@stuartofmt

Maybe I can answer my own question. Looks like I need to clone / fork the entire repository and not just the source.zip file

@stuartofmt

I see from another post that you appear to have resolved the resolution differences you were seeing. Is that the case ? Was it my suggested approach or some other method?

@Nova1545 said in DWC fails to download plugin:

@stuartofmt I currently use both (Pi-hole doesn't work for some sites, even after adding the domains they use for ads), I will just add an excpetion to the ad-block for the duet page

Yeah - I hear you. And not much to be done when the adds are resolved at the server end. Personally, I was lucky to even get away with pihole. SWMBO still gets annoyed with the "sponsored" search results not being accessible, 🙄

@stuartofmt It's because its in Typescript format and for DWC 3.5 - I probably should of mentioned that, I think I just assumed you were working in 3.5.

@Falcounet

A couple of small challenges along the way - but I have a working plugin !!

Many thanks for all your help.

@Falcounet said in Cannot find instructions to set up dev environment for plugin:

@stuartofmt The procedure is pretty much described for the EndStop plugin : https://github.com/Duet3D/DSF-Plugins/tree/master/EndstopsMonitorPlugin

Thanks ! That got me going.

I ended up with some errors due to having a later version of nodejs and / or npm. After searching, guess what ? I found a reply I had made in a post where I had linux bash script to do the job. Of course I'd deleted the script when I discovered my Pi was not the way to go. Anyway, in that thread was also the answer to the SSL related error.

To anyone stubling on this thread, here is a windows batch file that works for the current ( as of this date) versions.

:: Simple batch file to create a dev environment for DWC :: Needed for plugin development :: Tested with npm 9.5.0, nodejs 18.5.0 and DWC 3.4.5 :: Start with a new directory if exist DWC\ ( rmdir /s DWC ) mkdir DWC :: download DWC from github git clone -b master --depth=1 https://github.com/Duet3D/DuetWebControl DWC cd DWC :: Setup DWC cmd.exe /c npm install :: Check everything is basically OK cmd.exe /c npm audit --only prod :: Run DWC SET NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider cmd.exe /c npm run serve

@chrishamm I'm guessing I can't install it until 3.5 is available for the whole system?
