[SOLVED] Is it possible to reload python scripts (eg AFC_form_tip.py) without restarting?

[faint nimbus]

I'd like to try changes to scripts such as AFC_form_tip.py without having to restart the system in order to see their effects. Is it possible to reload these scripts via CLI or GUI such that I can iterate more quickly?

https://github.com/ArmoredTurtle/AFC-Klipper-Add-On/blob/main/docs/command_reference.md#test_afc_tip_forming I think is what your looking for

I'm making changes to the actual python script, not just the variables.

AFC_form_tips as an example, I'd like to be able to tinker with all of the files if possible

oh you should be able to just restart klipper to load the new changes. Either with a service restart or on the gui in the top right of mainsail.

When I had applied changes to configuration files through 'save and restart' the changes to the python script were not reflected

To clarify, I had made changes to the configuration and the python script but only saw the effects of the configuration changes until the device was restarted

Try this it will restart the klipper service which should load the changes

I'm checking now, I appreciate the assistance

Excellent, that worked. I wonder if this is comparable to systemctl restart klipper

I thought I had tried the service route before but this took care of it after a 'firmware restart' as well

thanks for the help!

This command works as well, so long as it is followed by a firmware restart in the GUI

The klipper restart under service control should also be the same as the command line, this is what I use to fully restart klipper
