Barco EventMaster REST API

Node.js wrapper module for Barco EventMaster REST API.

IMPORTANT! NOT ALL CALLS HAVE BEEN PROPERLY TESTED YET. USE AT OWN RISK. Everything should be pretty straight forward and working, though. Jinx.

Installation

npm install barco-eventmaster

Example

const EventMaster = require('barco-eventmaster');

// Change this IP to your own E2/S3 IP
const em = new EventMaster('10.0.0.1');

// Get all preset names
em.listPresets((err, presets) => {
  if (err) {
    console.error("Something went wrong with the event master request", err);
    return;
  }
  console.log("Current presets:", presets);
});
