Qcmd

qcmd is intended to be a simple command line client for QLab utilizing QLab 3's new OSC interface. qcmd should be useable from any machine on the same local network as the QLab workspace you intend to work with.

This project is OS X only and has been tested against Ruby 1.8.7-p358 (OS X 10.8 default), Ruby 1.8.7 REE 2012.02, and Ruby 1.9.3-p327.

This project should be considered experimental. DO NOT RUN SHOWS WITH IT.

Installation

Before installing qcmd, you'll have to install the Command Line Tools for Xcode. They're free, but you'll need an Apple ID to download them.

Once you've done that, you can install qcmd to your machine by running the following command:

$ sudo gem install qcmd

That should do ya.

Starting the qcmd console.

Run the following command in a terminal window:

$ qcmd

From there, you can connect to a machine, connect to a workspace, and then send commands to cues and the workspace.

qcmd supports tab completion for commands in case you get stuck or are wondering what you can do from the console. Type the beginning of a command and hit tab to auto-complete the command, or hit it twice to see all possible completions.

Run qcmd with the -v option to get full debugging output. Use the main project repository (https://github.com/Figure53/qcmd) to report any issues.

An example session might look like this:

$ qcmd
                         .::::    .::                .::
                       .::    .:: .::                .::
                     .::       .::.::         .::    .::
                     .::       .::.::       .::  .:: .:: .::
                     .::       .::.::      .::   .:: .::   .::
                       .:: .: .:: .::      .::   .:: .::   .::
                         .:: ::   .::::::::  .:: .:::.:: .::
                              .:

exiting...

If you already know the machine you want to connect to, you can use the -m option to connect immediately from the command line:

$ qcmd -m "my mac laptop"
Connecting to workspace: Untitled Workspace 1
Connected to "Untitled Workspace 1"
Loaded 1 cue
10:15 [my mac laptop] [Untitled Workspace 1]
>

If there's only one workspace available, qcmd will connect to the given machine and then try to automatically connect to that workspace. If there's more than one workspace, you can list it on the command line as well to connect immediately:

$ qcmd -m "my mac laptop" -w "very special cues.cues"
10:36 [my mac laptop] [very special cues.cues]
>

Finally, if all you want qcmd to do is run a single command and exit, you can use the -c option from the command line along with the -m and -w to make sure qcmd knows where to send the message:

$ qcmd -m "my mac laptop" -w "very special cues.cues" -c "cue 1 start"
ok
