Web Api - Websockets ?

[stevespaw]

I see that the newest client on the build, 2.09, supports websockets, this would be fantastic, but I can't seem to make it work.
I assume that it is like a web API. Maybe I am wrong. I would think the command from a browser assuming a clip with a UID in the client "test" would be:

http://127.0.0.1:4250/control/test/play

Am I doing something wrong? or will this not work this way?

Thanks,
Steve

I will try and report back, We are looking to control the official CCG client from Ross Dashboard. This should make it easy.
I will post an example when we get it working

Thanks for your help!

We have it working, nice. Can you give us the details on the "path" and "args" and the [1] ?
{"path" : "/control/5/play", "args" : [1]}').

Can we pass template data through this method?

I am trying to document a project here for my web/javascript developer. I will pass along examples of our project as we go along to the forum.

Thanks again, This is very helpful.

Hi Steve,

great that you are looking on this... there's so little info about how this works... ;)
I also try to understand how to use the "args" parameter, hoping it has to be a way to customise the triggered line but with no luck...
I tried for example adding a seek as second argument:
{"path" : "/control/10/play", "args" : [1, seek 5]}')}
this does not work and looking at the CasparCG client logs, the above is not registered... only an:
...[dbc] [D] Accepted connection from 127.0.0.1

In fact, it seems that any of those args are not received, not even the [1] arg...

ex: {"path" : "/control/10/stop", "args" : [1]}')}
logs:
[2017-03-30 22:46:56.740] [dbc] [D] Accepted connection from 127.0.0.1
[2017-03-30 22:46:56.749] [dbc] [D] Received OSC message over WebSocket from 127.0.0.1:65459: /control/10/stop
[2017-03-30 22:46:56.751] [dbc] [D] Sent message to 10.20.30.119:5250: STOP 1-10\r\n
[2017-03-30 22:46:56.752] [dbc] [D] Received message from 10.20.30.119:5250: 202 STOP OK\r\n

Perhaps this is a feature for futur implementacion...

@5opr4ni
Olle, could you enlighten us a little with an example, please?

Thanks for your help!
