ZMQ Connection Between Python and Unity

Unity Respond, Python Request

Execute

Under UnityResponder, start game mode of demo.unity, then run request.py

Lighting on the sphere will flash with 1 second interval, according to the command "on" or "off" sent from the Python script request.py. Unity will send back the current state of the light, which request.py will print.

Unity Request, Python Respond

Execute

Under UnityRequester, run respond.py, then start game mode of demo.unity

After typing into the input field and hitting enter, the message will be sent to respond.py and unity will wait for a response for 3 seconds. If there is a response, it will be printed to console.

Commands that the responder takes:

  • ping: Reply "ping back from server"

  • gib [object]: Spawns [object] in scene. Currently supports "sphere" and "cube"

  • sendJSON: Sends a random JSON to be parsed by Python responder

  • receiveJSON: Request and parse a random JSON from Python responder

The requester is run asynchronously so the UI won't be blocked.

Note

For System.Threading.Tasks to be accessible, set editor to .NET 4.6

File -> Build Settings -> Player Settings... -> Other Settings -> Scripting Runtime Version -> Experimental (.NET 4.6 Equivalent)
