SDK for Printer Info

Does the MK3 have WIFI capabilities? In which case, is there a REST API to get the printer info over WIFI?

https://ultimachine.com/products/einsy-rambo-1-1

I don't see a Wifi chip, that must why a RPI can be connected because I could run a REST API on the RPI.

How about is there an SDK that works when the printer is connected to USB?

I'm just looking for some events like temperature, status, and when a job is complete.

I can connect those events to room lighting and display temperature on my keyboard LEDs and when a print completes I can control the room lighting from my Hue light bridge.

What about using mqtt and the mqtt plugin for octopi? It publishes temperature, print status and percent complete.

Then you can subscribe to that and trigger events from your controller
