gcode.fire
Executes given GCODE command. Returns JSON result.
The POST method initiates a GCODE action. The returned JSON provides the state of the GCODE action. Synchronous requests return the completed state of the GCODE action. Cached requests may return status pending.
- output: application/json.
- status 404 Unknown DCE
- status 500 Internal application error
The GET method returns the current state of the latest GCODE command, which
may be either completed or pending. The HTTP GET method is fast and
is used primarily for polling the current state of pending commands
or for providing feedback to operators monitoring on devices other than
the originating CNC application. FireREST CNC HTTP GET requests
never block. Specifically, HTTP GET requests to /firerest/sync/cnc URL's are treated
as cached, non-blocking requests.

Since real machines can't be in two places at the same time,
CNC requests are normally synchronous and block
until the motion is completed.
Use /firerest/sync/cnc URLs for blocking requests
when you need simple and reliable control.
Alternatively, you can use /firerest/cnc URLs for "fire-and-forget"
interaction and poll the DCE for desired state changes.
