Plugins
A Cue View "plugin" is a system for communicating with a type of device, for example QLab or Watchout. It consists of a JS file that describes how to communicate with the device, an HTML template for displaying the device's data, and a CSS file to style the HTML.
plugin.js
exports.defaultName = 'Example Plugin'; exports.connectionType = 'osc' or 'TCPsocket' or 'UDPsocket' exports.searchOptions = { type: 'Bonjour', bonjourNane: 'device' } exports.searchOptions = { type: 'UDPsocket', searchBuffer: Buffer.from([0x00, 0x01, 0x02]), devicePort: 1234, // port the device receives messages on listenPort: 2345, // port Cue View should listen for responses on validateResponse: function(msg, info){ // if this function returns true, Cue View adds the responding IP address to the list } } exports.searchOptions = { type: 'TCPport', searchBuffer: Buffer.from('are you there'), testPort: 1234, // port the device receives messages on validateResponse: function(msg, info){ // if this function returns true, Cue View adds the responding IP address to the list } } exports.defaultPort = 1234; // only available for TCPsocket and UDPsocket devices exports.heartbeatInterval = 5000; // how frequently, in ms, to send the heartbeat message
exports.ready = function (device){ // runs when Cue View identifies a new device. send all data requests here device.send(); // method for sending a message to the device requesting more info. arguments change based on connectionType
device.send(`/this/is/osc`); // osc
device.send(`/this/is/osc`, [{ type: 'i', value: 20 }, { type: 's', value: 'foo' }]); // osc with arguments
device.send(Buffer.from(`hello`)); // UDPsocket
device.send(`hello`); // TCPsocket
}
exports.data = function (device, buf){ // runs when Cue View receives a message from the device. device.draw(); // flag for QLab to update the device's view device.send(); }
exports.heartbeat = function (device){ // runs every n milliseconds, defined by exports.heartbeatInterval devide.send(); }
