osc-websocket

The problem

The present OSC protocol isn't very web-friendly. Some applications like TouchOSC allows user to remote control some parameters with soundconsole-like interface.

What we're trying to do

We want to make a clone of the TouchOSC application with web technologies.

Schema

(1)       Web application 
                | 
               JSON
                |
                v
(2)        Node.js Server
           |     |     |
          OSC   UDP   JSON
           |     |     |
           v     v     v
(3)      Final application

Technologies

Front end (1)

• Angular
• jQuery UI ?
• Raphael ?

Back-end (2)

• Node.js
• Express Framework for serving static files
• node-osc module
• socket.io module communication between back (2) and front end (1)

Usage

• You can use the command cp config-sample.json config.json and edit config.json as you need to use custom settings. The web application (1) schema is in this file. If you run this command, config-sample.json will be used as a fall-back.
• Run npm install to install the packages
• Run bower install to install bower components
• Run gulp build to build
• Run npm start to start the server

Examples

Check the examples/ folder for example recievers

TODO

• More controls. Maybe one like this ?
• Adde the knob module !
• Accelerometer infos !
• Boussole infos !
• Improve the colors. Seriously, this is not good looking.
