### Description
This is a python program for controlling Dante network audio devices (and
possibly others in the future). It's early, so expect things to break or
switches to change. Use this at your own risk; it's not ready for anything
other than a test environment and could make the devices behave unexpectedly.
The first goal is to do everything that Dante Controller can do that would be
useful for control of the devices from a command-line interface or within
scripts.
For more information, check out the [gearspace discussion](https://gearspace.com/board/music-computers/1221989-dante-routing-without-dante-controller-possible.html).
### Demo
### Features
#### Current
- AVIO input/output gain control
- Add/remove subscriptions
- CLI
- Display active subscriptions, Rx and Tx channels, devices names and
addresses, subscription status
- JSON output
- Set device latency, sample rate, encoding
- Set/reset channel names, device names
- mDNS device discovery
#### Planned
- Change channel/device names without affecting existing subscriptions
- Change/display device settings (AES67 mode)
- Client/server modes
- Command prompt
- Control of Shure wireless devices ([Axient
receivers](https://pubs.shure.com/view/command-strings/AD4/en-US.pdf) and
[PSM
transmitters](https://pubs.shure.com/view/command-strings/PSM1000/en-US.pdf))
- Gather information from multicast traffic (make, model, lock status,
subscription changes)
- Signal presence indicator
- Stand-alone command API
- TUI
- Web application UI
- XML output (such as a Dante preset file)
### Installation
To install from PyPI on most systems, use pip or pipx:
```bash
pipx install netaudio
```
```bash
pip install netaudio
```
To install the package from a clone:
```bash
pipx install --force --include-deps .
```
#### Arch Linux
To install from AUR, build the package with
[aur/python-netaudio](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-netaudio).
Otherwise, install with pipx.
For development, install the following packages:
```bash
pacman -S community/python-pipx community/python-poetry
```
#### WSL / Ubuntu
```bash
apt-get install pipx
pipx install netaudio
```
For development, also install poetry:
```bash
pipx install poetry
```
#### MacOS
Install pipx with brew and then use it to install:
```bash
brew install pipx
brew link pipx
pipx install netaudio
```
For development, use brew to install and link poetry:
```bash
brew install poetry
brew link poetry
```
### Usage
To run without installing or for development, use poetry:
```bash
poetry install
poetry run netaudio
```
Run tests during development:
```bash
poetry run pytest
```
Otherwise, run `netaudio`.
