Klippain

Klippain - The pain-free recipe for (french)bread and butter Klipper configuration!

Klippain is a generic, modular, and highly customizable Klipper configuration for 3D printers. Designed for use on various machines such as Cartesian, CoreXY and CoreXZ, it has been reported working correctly on Voron V2.4, Voron Trident, Voron V0, Voron SwitchWire, TriZero, VZbot, Ender5, Ender3, Prusas, etc...

Klippain is regularly updated with new features and merged PRs from users. You can reach me on the Voron Discord as Frix_x#0161.

Fun fact: "pain" \pɛ̃\ is the French word for bread, so there's no pain in this pain—only joy! Thanks to the French channel "honhonhonbaguette-FR" on the Voron Discord for the joke and name suggestion!

Features

Klippain is designed for versatility. By selecting and enabling the desired hardware and software options, it can be used on a wide range of machines.

Custom features available out of the box include adaptive bed mesh, custom printer calibration macros, automated input shaper workflows, and vibration measurement macros and scripts, ... Refer to the features documentation for a detailed list and usage instructions.

Installation

To install Klippain, first ensure you have already Klipper, Moonraker, and a WebUI installed on your printer. If not, use KIAUH.

Then, run the installation script using the following command over SSH. This script will backup your old configuration, download this GitHub repository to your RaspberryPi home directory, and set up Klippain in ~/printer_data/config. You will also be prompted to select and install MCU board_pins templates. This is recommended for faster mcu.cfg setup, but you can do it manually later if you prefer.

wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Frix-x/klippain/main/install.sh | bash

Finally, Klippain requires a few simple steps to configure and customize it for your printer: please follow the configuration guide.

Warning

General rule to keep the auto-update feature working: never modify Klippain files directly, but instead add overrides as per the documentation! To proceed, you can modify all the pre-installed templates in your config root folder (printer.cfg, mcu.cfg, variables.cfg and overrides.cfg) as they will be preserved on update.

Support the Project

I strive to accommodate user requests that align with this configuration's design. Feel free to open an issue or a PR for specific hardware device support or new features.
