Ability to power off the printer via a Tplink smart plug

[E1ixir]

Would it be possible to implement the possibility for DWC to send M80/M81 commands to a TP-LINK SMART PLUG, powering the printer on or off?
Octoprint has a plugin to do that, and it is really very useful! (I.E we can use a simple M81 command to power the printer off automatically at the end of the print, with no need of an ATX PSU!) I spoke to DC42 about this, and he says he thinks it would be possible, but it would require some code to be added to DWC to control the Smart Switch. He found some Python code at https://github.com/softScheck/tplink-smartplug that could be translated into Javascript for use in DWC.

Thank you very much for your attention.

@veti In fairness to the OP, he asked his original question in a different section of these forums and was told that this is more a DWC thing. So he's started another thread in the DWC wish list section. I think that's a reasonable thing to do in this instance.
