Originally assigned to: @maziggy on GitHub.

Problem or Use Case

The chamber light has a simple On/Off toggle. That's OK but when a print completes, it means the light stays on indefinitely for no reason.

Proposed Solution

It would be great if we had an option to automatically turn the chamber light off after a print completes.

I love that Bambuddy already can take a snapshot and send me a notification when a print completes. I just wish there was an optional last step to turn off the chamber light.

Alternatives Considered

I know I could automate this with Home Assistant and MQTT or Node-Red, but I don't want to use those kludgy workarounds -- that's why I use Bambuddy!

Just to understand your workflow: why don't you just enable auto-poweroff?

Wouldn't that also require me to setup a smart plug in Home Assistant, MQTT, or Node Red?

No, Bambuddy fully supports Tasmota based smart plugs incl. auto discovery.

It turns out that the Home Assistant HACS integration for BambuLabs recognizes the printer chamber light as a switch. So from within Bambuddy, I was able to use HA to add the chamber light as a smart plug that automatically turns on/off with the print. (I know I could've set it up as an automation in Home Assistant, but I wanted to keep everything pertaining to my printer contained within Bambuddy.)
