Because who has never dreamed of controlling DMX512 devices with CSS stylesheets ? I know I did. And now it's here.
Describe your devices globally using JSON (in the devices directory) and, for each project, your DOM (DMX Object Model) using XML and your style using DSS (DMX stylesheets).
Run css2dmx and watch the magic happen !
DISCLAIMER: the project is in early stage, do not expect too much ;)
You will need
- Open Lighting Architecture (https://www.openlighting.org/ola/) to talk to your DMX512 device
- Google Protobuf (https://github.com/google/protobuf) v3.1.x because OLA does not work with later versions
- Python 3
Install python requirements
pip install -r requirements.txtUse OLA to connect your device (https://www.openlighting.org/ola/getting-started/using-ola/).
See the examples to see everything that you can do. There is no docs at the moment as the project is evolving rapidly.
Run with
python3 css2dmx.py path/to/project/dir
