Simple AF Custom Macro Hooks

Within Simple AF if you want to call a custom gcode macro you can with hooks, the following custom gcode macro hooks are supported and more can be added as needed:

• _SAF_HOMING_START - at start of homing
• _SAF_HOMING_END - at end of homing
• _SAF_START_PRINT_AFTER_G28 - After G28 is called in START_PRINT
• _SAF_BED_MESH_START - Start of bed mesh calibrate
• _SAF_BED_MESH_END - End of bed mesh calibrate
• _SAF_ON_FILAMENT_RUNOUT - When filament runout is triggered
• _SAF_ON_PAUSE - When pause is triggered
• _SAF_ON_RESUME - When resume is triggered
• _SAF_ON_CANCEL - When cancel is triggered

So the way this works is you define your own custom config file (make sure it has a .cfg file extension), and add it to printer.cfg like so:

[include MyCustomMacros.cfg]

Note: It does not need to be called MyCustomMacros.cfg, you can call it whatever you like, but it must end with .cfg and it must be saved directly in the config directory, not a sub-directory!

Your config file should implement as many of the above macros as you want to, you do not need to implement them all, so for example if you wanted to do something after G28 in START_PRINT, you file might look like:

[gcode_macro _SAF_START_PRINT_AFTER_G28]
gcode:
   RESPOND TYPE=command MSG='I am getting called after G28'

Knomi Support

A prime use case for this would be knomi support, which currently might look like this:

[gcode_macro _KNOMI_STATUS]
variable_homing: False
variable_probing: False
variable_qgling: False
variable_heating_nozzle: False
variable_heating_bed: False
gcode:


[gcode_macro M109]
rename_existing: M109.1
gcode:
  SET_GCODE_VARIABLE MACRO=_KNOMI_STATUS VARIABLE=heating_nozzle VALUE=True
  M109.1 {rawparams}
  SET_GCODE_VARIABLE MACRO=_KNOMI_STATUS VARIABLE=heating_nozzle VALUE=False


[gcode_macro M190]
rename_existing: M190.1
gcode:
  SET_GCODE_VARIABLE MACRO=_KNOMI_STATUS VARIABLE=heating_bed VALUE=True
  M190.1 {rawparams}
  SET_GCODE_VARIABLE MACRO=_KNOMI_STATUS VARIABLE=heating_bed VALUE=False


[gcode_macro _SAF_BED_MESH_START]
gcode:
  SET_GCODE_VARIABLE MACRO=_KNOMI_STATUS VARIABLE=probing VALUE=True


[gcode_macro _SAF_BED_MESH_END]
gcode:
  SET_GCODE_VARIABLE MACRO=_KNOMI_STATUS VARIABLE=probing VALUE=False


[gcode_macro _SAF_HOMING_START]
gcode:
  SET_GCODE_VARIABLE MACRO=_KNOMI_STATUS VARIABLE=homing VALUE=True


[gcode_macro _SAF_HOMING_END]
gcode:
  SET_GCODE_VARIABLE MACRO=_KNOMI_STATUS VARIABLE=homing VALUE=False

Note we may actually add proper hooks for M109 and M190 in the future to make this a bit easier
