A part of Sofie: The Modern TV News Studio Automation System

Library for connecting to a MOS device using the MOS Protocol.

This is a part of the Sofie TV News Studio Automation System.

Getting started

import { MosConnection } from '@mos-connection/connector'

let mos = new MosConnection(new ConnectionConfig({
	mosID: 'my.mos.application',
	acceptsConnections: true,
	profiles: {
		'0': true,
        '1': true,
        '2': true,
        '4': true
	},
	openRelay: true
	debug: false
}))
mos.onConnection((device: MosDevice) => { // called whenever there is a new connection to a mos-device
	if (device.hasConnection) { // true if we can send messages to the mos-server
	    device.getMachineInfo().then((lm) => {
			console.log('Machineinfo', lm)
		})
	}
	// Setup callbacks to pipe data:
	device.onRequestMachineInfo(() => {})
	device.onCreateRunningOrder((ro) => {})
	device.onDeleteRunningOrder((RunningOrderID: MosString128) => {})
	device.onReadyToAir(() => {})
	// ...
})
