Module wire 

The protocol between the library’s render::plugin::PluginRenderer and the plug-in host process, sound-to-patch-host.

The renderer writes one Request per line to the host’s standard input. The host answers each with one Reply line on standard output, after REPLY_PREFIX. A plug-in may print to standard output too, so a line without the prefix is plug-in output and is never parsed. Binary state travels as base64; audio travels as a WAV file at a path the renderer names.

Structs

WireControl

A controller change at a time of the clip.

WireNote

A note on the wire. The host checks it as super::RenderNote::new does.

Enums

Reply

A reply from the host.

Request

A request to the host.

WireControlKind

A controller change on the wire.

Constants

PROTOCOL_VERSION

The version of this protocol. The renderer refuses a host with another version, such as the host of another release.

REPLY_PREFIX

The start of every reply line.

Functions

parse_reply

Reads a reply line. Returns None for a line without the prefix, which is plug-in output.

reply_line

Writes a reply as one line, prefix included.
