Action Status

Welcome to the Danger Klipper project!

This is a community-maintained fork of the Klipper firmware.

Our goal is to support features and behavior that could be "risky" if used incorrectly.

If I want my printer to light itself on fire, I should be able to make my printer light itself on fire.

See the Danger Features document for more information on some of the differences from Klipper.

Features merged into the master branch:

If you're feeling adventurous, take a peek at the extra features in the bleeding-edge-v2 branch feature documentation and feature configuration reference:

Switch to Danger Klipper

Note

Any add-on modules you are using will need to be reinstalled after switching to Danger Klipper. This includes things like Beacon support, led-effect, etc.

Any data in ~/printer_data such as printer configs and macros will be unaffected.

Option 1. Manually clone the repository

If desired, make a backup copy of your existing Klipper installation by running:

mv ~/klipper ~/klipper_old

Then clone the Danger Klipper repo and restart the klipper service:

git clone https://github.com/DangerKlippers/danger-klipper.git ~/klipper
sudo systemctl restart klipper

Option 2. Using KIAUH

For users that are not comfortable using Git directly, KIAUH v6 is able to use custom repositories.

To do this, add the Danger Klipper repo to KIAUH's custom repository settings with the following steps:

From the KIAUH menu select:

  • [S] Settings
  • 1) Set custom Klipper repository
  • Use https://github.com/DangerKlippers/danger-klipper as the new repository URL
  • Use master or bleeding-edge-v2 as the new branch name
  • Select 'Y' to apply the changes
  • Enter 'B' for back twice
  • 'Q' to quit

Option 3. Adding a git-remote to the existing installation

Can switch back to mainline klipper at any time via a git checkout upstream_master

cd ~/klipper
git remote add danger https://github.com/DangerKlippers/danger-klipper.git
git checkout -b upstream-master origin/master
git branch -D master
git checkout -b master danger/master
sudo systemctl restart klipper
sudo systemctl restart moonraker
