connecting Octoprint (raspberry pi 4) to ESP8266 as the controller. about mclighting HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @ShadowOfTheDamn,

connecting and controlling Octoprint and McLighting wireless is possible via REST/MQTT API. It's not made to be controlled by a wired connection.

If you can use Wifi for the connection to the ESP then you should definitely have a look at this plugin and WLED as a firmware for the ESP: https://plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/wled/

thanks for the reply.
IT DOES NOT DO WHAT I WANT TO, WHY YOU CLOSED THE ISSUE?
I want to control the LED from octoprint GUI with a GUI similar to the McLighting GUI.

Hi @ShadowOfTheDamn,

as said: this seems not to be the right task for McLighting and more a thing for a Octoprint plugin. I suggested one that works very well. There are definitely many other solutions out there that might fit your needs.
These issues are for Mclighting related problems. That's why I closed it!

Hi again and thanks
you proposed a solution that even does not have a single documentation about how to use it.
