ppaez / alsaseq Goto Github PK

Hi

Apologies if this isn't the correct forum, I'm fairly new at this...

I came across your alsaseq library, and I'm trying to use it in a project that I'm working on - I've been able to use the connectto and connectfrom and send the correct data, however, can you let me know how I remove the connections using the library? Basically, a 'disconnectto' and 'disconnectfrom'...?
I can basically do this by performing a shell-call to 'aconnect -d...' however, that isn't so great...

Hopefully the above makes sense - or am I missing something in the way you're supposed to use the library...

Many thanks

Carl.

Explain the use of multiple threads in the documentation, use tracks.py as an example.

• Use Sphinx and readthedocs

Add a function to return a list of input sequencer ports like the output of aconnect -i and a list of output sequencer ports like aconnect -o. Each element of the lists should include client number, name, and a list with port numbers and names, for example:

[(14, 'Midi Through', [(0, 'Midi Through Port-0')]

This will allow a program using alsaseq to search the client and port names and know the corresponding client and port numbers to connect to and disconnect from.

Define and implement support as suggested in #7, integrating in the current alsaseq.output function and using a string with hexadecimal numbers, for example: "F0411042124000054576F7". Some existing MIDI applications allow this and seems to be ok.

If any of the functions from this module are called before the call to alsaseq.client(), python application crashes.

Example to reproduce:

$ python
>>> import alsaseq
>>> alsaseq.fd()
python: seq.c:1063: snd_seq_poll_descriptors_count: Assertion `seq' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

Same happens in both python 2.7.6 and 3.5.2
