OSCresponderNode client side network responder

Register a function to be called upon receiving a specific command from a specific OSC address.

same interface like [OSCresponder], but allows multiple responders to the same command.

note that OSCresponderNode evaluates its function in the system process.

in order to access the application process (e.g. for GUI access ) use { ... }.defer;

Setting up OSCresponder for listening to a remote application

// example: two SuperCollider apps communicating

// application 1:

n = NetAddr("127.0.0.1", 57120); // the url should be the one of computer of app 2 (or nil)

o = OSCresponder(n, '/chat', { |t, r, msg| msg[1].postln }).add;

// application 2:

m = NetAddr("127.0.0.1", 57120); // the url should be the one of computer of app 1

m.sendMsg("/chat", "Hello App 1");

// end application 2:

m.disconnect;

// end application 1:

n.disconnect; o.remove;

Sending data from server to client

// example from SendTrig

(

s = Server.local;

s.boot;

s.notify;

)

(

SynthDef("help-SendTrig",{

SendTrig.kr(Dust.kr(1.0), 0, 0.9);

}).send(s);

// register to receive this message

a = OSCresponderNode(s.addr, '/tr', { arg time, responder, msg;

[time, responder, msg].postln;

}).add;

b = OSCresponderNode(s.addr, '/tr', { arg time, responder, msg;

"this is another call".postln;

}).add;

)

x = Synth.new("help-SendTrig");

a.remove;

b.remove;

x.free;

Watching for something specific

// end of group message

s.boot;

a = OSCresponderNode(s.addr,'/n_end',{ arg time,responder,msg;

[time, responder, msg].postln;

if(msg[1] == g.nodeID,{

"g is dead !".postln;

// g = Group.new;

});

}).add;

g = Group.new;

g.free;

a.remove;

Watching for errors

// example from ServerErrorGui in crucial lib

f = OSCresponderNode(s.addr, '/fail', { arg time, responder, msg;

{

var mins,secs;

mins = (time/60).round(1);

secs = (time%60).round(0.1);

if(secs<10,{ secs = "0"++secs.asString; },{ secs=secs.asString;});

// put this on a gui

//errors.label = msg[1].asString + msg[2].asString + "("++(mins.asString++":"++secs)++")";

//errors.stringColor = Color.white;

(msg[1].asString + msg[2].asString + "("++(mins.asString++":"++secs)++")").postln;

}.defer

});

f.add;

// cause a failure

Synth("gthhhhppppppp!");

f.remove
