Feature Request - Trigger webhook from gcode

[abnoba12]

Octoprint already reacts to special commands in the GCode like "@Pause". I would love to be able to add something like "@webhook1" to my GCode and cause this plugin to trigger my webhook. I think this feature would allow people to get very creative on how they use this plugin.

Ooo interesting request. I'll have to look into how that would be implemented (how plugins can read & take actions from certain lines of gcode as they happen), but it's definitely not a small feature request as it would require some UI changes, documentation, backend changes (of course), and probably significant research & testing.

But thanks for submitting!

If you could make it trigger on any specified command that would be even better. Then I could specify my trigger to be "M106 S200". I occasionally do some prints with some crazy overhangs that can't have a lot of support and I use a big fan pointed at my printer to achieve what I need. This way I could turn my fan on just at the time I need it using a smart plug. Then I wouldn't have to manually add "@webhook1" to my gcode.
