Can't connect to octoprint over SSL

[taxilian]

I have my octoprint server exposed via an SSL port so I can access it remotely, but slic3r can't use it. Is this something that can be trivially fixed? Would be cool =]

Awesome tool, keep up the good work.

The connection code, IIRC, uses the Perl cURL library. Should be fixable
in code w/o much trouble.

If you can give me an idea of where to start looking I may be able to fix it myself?

It'll have to wait until I can get in front of the codebase.

Meh, I'm currently sitting in a datacenter re-installing servers; as much as I'd like to, I probably shouldn't be playing with my 3d printer right now anyway =] No rush, just wanted to let you know I'm willing to help as I can to solve the problem.

I remembered that I had committed a fix for something else but should be in
the same area, check lib/Slic3r/GUI/Tab.pm
(reference: https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r/pull/2531/files)

Moving to 1.3.1, I'd like to do this in xsgui instead of Perl.

[keithellis74]

Probably related to this. I use OctoPi as installed with the dietpi distro, By default this opens up the OctoPi instance on port 5000. Slic3r does not have an option to change the port. even if the IP address 192.168.xxx.xxx:5000 is used, it appears just to be checking port 80. The following error message is received.



Can a port option be added please.

Just to let everybody know, i started working on this yesterday and got proof-of-concept fix done.
I'm currently in the proces of improving it and making it configurable. Since @lordofhyphens posted this

Moving to 1.3.1, I'd like to do this in xsgui instead of Perl.

Should I still make a pull request with the fix?

[lordofhyphens]

@Stiixxy did you have to add a new Perl module for a dependency?

[ghost]

@lordofhyphens yes i beleive it required the LWP::Protocol::https module. I'm gonna recheck it when i'm working on it again. I got a https fix and http credentials for basic authentication because that's how my octoprint is setup.
