# midi-request-trigger A service that triggers HTTP requests when MIDI messages are recieved and triggers MIDI messages when HTTP requests are received. ## Install You can install either by downloading the latest binary release or by building. ### Building Building should be as simple as running: ```bash go build ``` ### Running as a service You are likely going to want to run the tool as a service to ensure it runs at boot and restarts in case of failures. Below is an example service config file you can place in `/etc/systemd/system/midi-request-trigger.service` on a linux system to run as a service if you install the binary in `/usr/local/bin/`. ```systemd [Unit] Description=MIDI Request Trigger After=network.target StartLimitIntervalSec=500 StartLimitBurst=5 [Service] ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/midi-request-trigger ExecReload=/bin/kill -s HUP $MAINPID Restart=on-failure RestartSec=5s [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target ``` Once the service file is installed, you can run the following to start it: ```bash systemctl daemon-reload systemctl start midi-request-trigger.service ``` On MacOS, you can setup a Launch Agent in `~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.mrgeckosmedia.midi-request-trigger.plist` as follows: ```xml Label com.mrgeckosmedia.midi-request-trigger ProgramArguments /path/to/bin/midi-request-trigger -c /path/to/config.yaml KeepAlive Crashed SuccessfulExit RunAtLoad OnDemand ``` Start with: ```bash launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.mrgeckosmedia.midi-request-trigger.plist ``` Check status with: ```bash launchctl list com.mrgeckosmedia.midi-request-trigger ``` Stop with: ```bash launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.mrgeckosmedia.midi-request-trigger.plist ``` ## Config The default configuration paths are: - `./config.yaml` - A file in the current working directory. - `~/.config/midi-request-trigger/config.yaml` - A file in your home directory's config path. - `/etc/midi-request-trigger/config.yaml` - A file in the IPA config folder. ### To verify listener works You can find the device name by running the following: ```bash midi-request-trigger -l ``` On MacOS, there is an IAC Driver that can be enabled in Audio MIDI Setup. ```yaml --- midi_routers: - name: service_notifications device: IAC Driver Bus 1 debug_listener: true ``` ### Example note trigger configuration ```yaml --- midi_routers: - name: service_notifications device: IAC Driver Bus 1 debug_listener: true note_triggers: - channel: 0 note: 0 match_all_velocities: true url: http://example.com midi_info_in_request: true ``` ### Example request trigger configuration ```yaml --- midi_routers: - name: service_notifications device: IAC Driver Bus 1 debug_listener: true request_triggers: - channel: 0 note: 0 velocity: 1 midi_info_in_request: true uri: /send_note ``` ### Example multi part request ```yaml --- midi_routers: - name: service_notifications device: IAC Driver Bus 1 debug_listener: true note_triggers: - channel: 0 note: 0 match_all_velocities: true url: http://example.com method: POST body: | -----------------------------888832887744 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="message" example variable -----------------------------888832887744 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="example.txt" Content-Type: text/plain Content of file. -----------------------------888832887744-- headers: Content-Type: - multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------888832887744 debug_request: true ```
