DESCRIPTION::
|
||
|
|
Human input devices can be used as controllers for making music. This class provides you with access to them in a way similar to OSCFunc and MIDIFunc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
HIDFunc (and its subclass link::Classes/HIDdef::) registers one or more functions to respond to an incoming HID message. Many of its methods are inherited from its superclass link::Classes/AbstractResponderFunc::.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
note:: HIDFuncs are removed on Cmd-. by default. This can be overridden using either of the fix or permanent methods.::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The development of this SuperCollider implementation of HID access was funded by the SuperCollider community and BEK, Bergen Elektronisk Kunst, Bergen, Norway, http://www.bek.no

CLASSMETHODS::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PRIVATE:: initClass, cmdPeriod
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
METHOD:: defaultDispatchers
|
||
|
|
Get or set an link::Classes/IdentityDictionary:: containing the default dispatcher objects for HIDFuncs of different types (these are what you get if you pass nil as the dispatcher argument to link::#*new::). These objects will decide if any of their registered HIDFuncs should respond to an incoming HID message. The dictionary should have the keys code::[\usage, \usageID, \device, \proto, \element]:: and values of an appropriate subclass of link::Classes/AbstractDispatcher:: for each message type. By default these will be instances of code::HIDUsageDispatcher::, code::HIDElementProtoDispatcher::, code::HIDDeviceDispatcher::, code::HIDElementProtoDispatcher:: and code::HIDElementDispatcher:: respectively.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
returns:: The getter returns an link::Classes/IdentityDictionary::.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
METHOD:: usage
|
||
|
|
A convenience method to filter an incoming HID value based on the name of its control usage. E.g. the name of an X-axis of a joystick or the horizontal movement of a mouse has the name code::\X::. These usage names are standardized by manufacturers and are looked up in usage tables based on the information coming from the device. If you have an open HID device, you can look up the available usages with: code::~hid.postUsages::.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: func
|
||
|
|
A link::Classes/Function:: or similar object which will respond to the incoming message. It will be passed...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: elUsageName
|
||
|
|
The name of the usage to look for. This can be one usage name, or an array of usage names. If nil, it will match any usage.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: devUsageName
|
||
|
|
The name of the device usage to look for, e.g. code::\GamePad:: or code::\Mouse::. If left blank, the code::HIDFunc:: will match any device.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: deviceInfo
|
||
|
|
An link::Classes/IdentityDictionary:: or link::Classes/HIDProto:: with a more detailed filtering for a device.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: argTemplate
|
||
|
|
This should be an object that implements the method code::matchItem::. Depending on the code::argTemplateType::, it will be passed either the rawValue of the value of the element to be matched.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: argTemplateType
|
||
|
|
If the argTemplateType is code::\rawValue:: (the default) then the matching is done based on the incoming raw value of the element (not mapped according to the logical min and max). Otherwise the matching is done according to the mapped value.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: dispatcher
|
||
|
|
An optional instance of an appropriate subclass of link::Classes/AbstractDispatcher::. This can be used to allow for customised dispatching. Normally this should not be needed. The default for this type of code::HIDFunc:: is code::HIDUsageDispatcher::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
returns:: A new instance of HIDFunc which responds to a specific element usage and device type.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
METHOD:: device
|
||
|
|
A convenience method to filter an incoming HID value based on the name of the device. This type of HIDFunc differs from code::HIDFunc.usage:: in that it filter specifically by device name, rather than device usage, otherwise the arguments are the same.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: func
|
||

|
The name of the usage to look for. This can be one usage name, or an array of usage names.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: deviceName
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: deviceInfo

|
||
|
|
|
||

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: dispatcher
|
||
|
|
An optional instance of an appropriate subclass of link::Classes/AbstractDispatcher::. This can be used to allow for customised dispatching. Normally this should not be needed. The default for this type of code::HIDFunc:: is code::HIDDeviceDispatcher::

|
|
|
||
|
|
METHOD:: usageID
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: func

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARGUMENT:: func
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
METHOD:: element

A convenience method to filter an incoming HID value based on the index of its element. If the device is using something non-standard, or you want to access keyboard elements directly, then this method can be used to look for it.

EXAMPLES::
|

||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
code::
|
||
|
|
HID.findAvailable; // check which devices are attached
|
||
|
|
HID.postAvailable; // post the available devices
|
||
|
|
~myhid = HID.open( 1103, 53251 ); // adapt this line for the device that you want to open!
