Repository history begins in April 2013 with work-in-progress commits and an alpha 0.1 commit. The tool's purpose was to open older MakerBot-style printers to a wider set of slicing tools such as Cura, KISSlicer, S3DCreator, and Slic3r by translating their G-code output into the X3G format those printers could consume. ### Adoptionsgeschichte GPX found a home among owners of pre-fifth-generation MakerBot printers and compatible clones, especially users running Sailfish firmware or using modern slicers instead of the original MakerBot workflow. The README documents Linux package installation, Windows release zips, macOS dmg files, and Homebrew, which explains its presence as a package-manager utility rather than only a printer-forum binary. ### Wie es verwendet wird Typical usage is `gpx` with a machine preset and a sliced `.gcode` input, producing an `.x3g` output for SD-card printing or a downstream workflow. It also accepts custom machine and EEPROM `.ini` files through command-line options, but the official README does not define a fixed config-file location. Related workflows include GpxUi for users who want a graphical wrapper and OctoPrint-GPX for translating G-code to X3G inside an OctoPrint communication path. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren GPX is a preservation package for a specific hardware generation. It keeps old MakerBot-compatible printers usable with general slicers and modern host operating systems. It is also a good example of why package managers carry small hardware translators: the binary is tiny, the domain is narrow, and the alternative is reviving a full legacy printer software stack. ### Zeitleiste - 2013-04: GPX is created by Dr. Henry Thomas. - 2013-04-11: Public repository history begins with work-in-progress commits. - 2013-04-17: Repository history records an alpha 0.1 commit. - 2014-2015: README copyright credits additional changes by DNewman and MWalker. - 2020-11-26: Repository history records version-number work for 2.6.8. ### Related projects - GpxUi is a graphical wrapper around GPX. - OctoPrint-GPX uses GPX to translate G-code to X3G under OctoPrint for MakerBot-style printers. - Sailfish firmware is a common target firmware named by GPX and OctoPrint-GPX documentation. ### Quellen - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Details aus der Quelldatenbank - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** gpx - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Head Version:** HEAD - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** head, stable ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Debian apt - gpx - 2.6.8-1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: gpx from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Gcode to x3g conversion post processor | https://github.com/markwal/GPX - Nix - gpx: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/gp/gpx/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Ubuntu apt - gpx - 2.6.8-1: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: gpx from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Gcode to x3g conversion post processor | https://github.com/markwal/GPX ## Verwandte Links - [Source-control packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [Developer build packages](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/developer-build-tools/) - Matched build, compiler, generator, or developer workflow metadata. - [graphviz2drawio](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/graphviz2drawio/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, conversion, developer-tools. - [html2markdown](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/html2markdown/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, conversion, developer-tools. - [html2text](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/html2text/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, conversion, developer-tools. - [htmldoc](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/htmldoc/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, conversion, developer-tools. - [markdown](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/markdown/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, conversion, developer-tools. - [pgdbf](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/pgdbf/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, conversion, developer-tools. - [tfk8s](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/tfk8s/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, conversion, developer-tools. - [ttf2pt1](https://www.automicvault.com/de/pkg/brew/ttf2pt1/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, conversion, developer-tools. ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
