Installation

Install via the OctoPrint Plugin Manager manually using this archive URL:

https://github.com/idcrook/OctoPrint-EmailNotifier/archive/main.zip

Configuration

Your outgoing email account password is not stored with OctoPrint's settings. It is retrieved from your system keyring. Store your password from a Python prompt on your OctoPrint system using yagmail.register:

$ ~/oprint/bin/python
>>> import yagmail
>>> import keyring
>>> yagmail.register("SMTP username", "SMTP password")

For some accounts, your SMTP username may be your complete username@domain.com address.

To use yagmail (and thus OctoPrint-EmailNotifier) with Gmail, you may need to allow less secure apps to access your account.

• Server: smtp.gmail.com
• Serverport: 587
• Use TLS

Troubleshooting

If on Raspberry Pi, when you try to [Send a test email] and you encounter this error:

ImportError: libxslt.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Install the system library:

$ sudo apt install libxslt-dev
# on later systems, if that does not work # $ sudo apt install libxslt1-dev

Acknowledgements

Loosely based on OctoPrint-Pushbullet.

Uses yagmail to send email.
