Topic: OS X 3w file temperature modifier App
In order to use this app you need to have threedub installed. A single search in this forum will tell you how.
This is a very very simple app that will modify temperature setting of 3w files in batch process, it's maded in Automator so you can open the app with automator and see everything inside.
This is my very first Shell Script or OSX Script, so please don't blame me 
, i't will be great if you help me to enhance the code so we all can learn a bit, I will thank you alot.
Apart of the Automator processes, this is the script that does everything.
#Define a temporary file to work with
tmpFile="/tmp/3w2GcodeTemp"#Silent delete the file for if garbage exists
rm -f "$tmpFile"#Loop trough arguments passed by automator
for file in "$@"
do
#Conditional check for .3w extension
if [ "${file: -3}" == ".3w" ]; then
#Extract original name of the file
filename=$(basename "$file")
#Create temporary .gcode file with treedub and wait till it's processed
/usr/local/bin/threedub -f gcode "$file" "$tmpFile"
wait
#Inyect temperature to temporary file
echo -e "M104 S$1\nM109 S$1\n$(cat $tmpFile)" > "$tmpFile"
#Create the .3w back inside the chosen folder and wait till processed
/usr/local/bin/threedub "$tmpFile" "$2/$filename"
wait
#Delete temporary .gcode file
rm -f "$tmpFile"
fi
done
Steps:
First you need to download (2.4 Mb), uncompress, mount & copy the app to your drive (or just use it from mounted dmg)
Edit: Replaced link -> 3wTemp.dmg.zip -> to post attachment.
Create your 3w file with XYZWare as you always do, or choose an already processed bunch of 3w files and throw them to the app icon.
As you can see in the code abobe there's no need to drop only 3w files, the script will filter the files and process only 3w files. Do not throw a folder since the script doesn't check folder contents, that means that you will probably not process a single file that is inside a selected folder.
The app will ask you to choose a folder, just select where do you want to store final 3w temperature modified files.
Then you will be asked to insert the temperature
Once the batch process ends you will have a notification under notifications system tab
Check your choosen folder, and voila modified files will be there to print at your desired temperature.
I wish this can be usefull to any one.
