Λioi

A companion app for ORCΛ using its UDP operator to send complex OSC message to multiple hosts.

Goals

Λioi is an ElectronJS application that intends to let you access the extra complexity you may need for ORCΛ to drive your applications. Λioi provides support for OSC messages with multiple parameters, types and to multiple hosts. Λioi helps you configure OSC hosts dynamically with a simple GUI and test your OSC messages.

Install & Run

You can download builds for OSX, Windows and Linux, or if you wish to run it from sources, follow these steps:

git clone https://github.com/MAKIO135/aioi.git
cd aioi/desktop
npm install
npm run start

You can also build it for your system using npm run build_osx, npm run build_linux or npm run build_win.

Usage from ORCΛ

;[base36hostIndex1[base36hostIndex2[...base36hostIndexN]]#] path [;parameter1[;parameter2[;...parameterN]]]

• specify path:
  ;foo in ORCΛ sends /foo to the first host in Λioi
  ;bar in ORCΛ sends /bar to the first host in Λioi
  ;21 in ORCΛ sends /21 to the first host in Λioi

• send integers:
  ;foo;5 in ORCΛ sends /foo 5 to the first host in Λioi
  ;foo;127 in ORCΛ sends /foo 127 to the first host in Λioi

• send base 36 integers (single char are converted to base 36 integers):
  ;foo;8 in ORCΛ sends /foo 8 to the first host in Λioi ;foo;c in ORCΛ sends /foo 12 to the first host in Λioi

• send floats (integers followed by f are divided by 10 and sent as floats):
  ;foo;3f in ORCΛ sends /foo 0.3 to the first host in Λioi
  ;foo;235f in ORCΛ sends /foo 23.5 to the first host in Λioi

• send strings:
  ;foo;yes in ORCΛ sends /foo "yes" to the first host in Λioi
  ;foo;h3ll0 in ORCΛ sends /foo "h3ll0" to the first host in Λioi

• send multiple parameters (split parameters using ;):
  ;foo;yo;5 in ORCΛ sends /foo "yo" 5 to the first host in Λioi ;foo;2f;c;135 in ORCΛ sends /foo 0.2 12 135 to the first host in Λioi

• host selection (Λioi sends the message to the first host by default, but we can start UDP message with base 36 indexes followed by #):
  ;2#foo in ORCΛ sends /foo to the third host in Λioi
  ;a#foo;2f in ORCΛ sends /foo 0.2 to the tenth host in Λioi

• send to multiple hosts at once:
  ;2a#foo in ORCΛ sends /foo to the third and tenth hosts in Λioi

Λioi does not support:

• complex paths (eg. /foo/bar)
• negative values
• arrays

Example

Open aioi_test.orca with ORCΛ and start listener.js with NodeJS:

cd aioi
node listener.js
