Play LED light sequences from csv. Control LED lights using PyDMXControl
Install:
https://github.com/MattIPv4/PyDMXControl/tree/master
Calc fields / Variables:
- seq -> "sequence" = position (seconds) on 'timeline' starting 0
- fadein / fadeout (milliseconds) [optional/default]
- duration (seconds)
- brightness -> 0-255 (optional, else default) [optional/default]
- "channel" --> LED/channel identifier, order as connected to DMX decoder
(channel = name | opendmxcontroller calls fixtures "by_name")
- channels are sequential and fixed
- blank channels also must be added to dmx..()
- Map channels (play one at a time, wait for input):
```
$ python3 mapchannels.py
```
- run sequence:
```
$ python3 sequence.py
```
- run sequence from START cell (not from t=0):
```
$ python3 zztest_sequence.py
```
- debug:
- (play single channel only and exit)
```
$ python3 playsingle.py <channel/name>
```
_____
*** EDIT ("seq", "duration", optional "brightness") and play sequence:
- edit local or online calc/csv
- get csv -> sequence.json
```
$ python3 getspread.py
```
- restart service
- OR edit in json, save, restart service
_____
- check script output:
```
$ tmux a -t light
```
---
lights.service runs sequence.py in a tmux session called "light"
(Run outside tmux)
[ start/stop/restart service now ]
```
sudo systemctl <start/stop/restart> lights.service
```
enable/disable service on boot
```
sudo systemctl <enable/disable> lights.service
```
check status
```
systemctl status lights.service
```
---
*dev* service script:
xetc_systemd_system -> lights.service
edit here if required, and copy to /etc/systemd/system
