new( ?actions => {}, ?scheduler => sub {...} )

Creates Protocol::Instance with optional "actions" argument which is hashref of pairs: path => coderef and optional default scheduler for "process" method - see below.

message($path, $typetag, ?@args)

Encodes message to packet. Typetag supports these OSC-types: ifstdbht. Everything else (like TFNI) will not affect packing of @args. Alias: msg

bundle(undef || $unix_time, [@message_or_bundle], ...)

Encodes bundle to packet. Pack several OSC messages/bundles to a bundle.

parse($data)

Parses OSC packet data. Returns OSC message/bundle. OSC-message is a blessed arrayref [$path, $type, @args] with corresponding methods path, type, args. OSC-bundle is a blessed arrayref [$time, @packets] with corresponding methods time, packets

process($data, ?$scheduler_cb)

Parses OSC packet/data and process messages in it. It will call matched actions through $scheduler_cb which is just "sub { $_[0]->(splice @_,1) }" by default(or specified in constructor). Arguments to scheduler are $action_coderef, $time, $action_path, $osc_msg, ?@osc_bundles.

actions

Returns hashref of actions: path => coderef pairs. One could modify this hashref or use methods below.

set_cb($path, $cb)

Set coderef $cb to actions

del_cb($path)

Remove coderef at $path from actions at $path

match($osc_path_pattern)

Returns mathched actions in form of list of arrayrefs [$path, $coderef]

time2tag($unix_time)

Converts (fractional) unix epoch time to NTP timestamp, which is list of ($seconds_since_1900_01_01, $int32_fraction_parts_of_second). If $unix_time is undef then (0,1) is returned which means immediate execution by OSC specs.

tag2time($ntp_time, $fraction_of_sec)

Reverse of previous.

to_stream($data)

Packs raw OSC data for (tcp) streaming.

from_stream($buf)

Returns list of raw OSC data packets in $buf from stream buffer and residue of $buf. If $buf is incomplete - returns only $buf.

Sending

make packet

    my $data = $osc->message(my @specs = qw(/echo isf 3 ping 3.14));
    # or
    use Time::HiRes 'time';
    my $data $osc->bundle(time, [@specs], [@specs2], ...);

via UDP

    my $udp = IO::Socket::INET->new( PeerAddr => 'localhost', PeerPort => $port, Proto => 'udp', Type => SOCK_DGRAM) || die $!;
    $udp->send($data);

via TCP

    my $tcp = IO::Socket::INET->new( PeerAddr => 'localhost', PeerPort => $port, Proto => 'tcp', Type => SOCK_STREAM) || die $!;
    $tcp->syswrite($osc->to_stream($data));

Receiving

UDP

    my $in = IO::Socket::INET->new( qw(LocalAddr localhost LocalPort), $port, qw(Proto udp Type), SOCK_DGRAM ) || die $!;
    $in->recv(my $packet, $in->sockopt(SO_RCVBUF));
    my $p = $osc->parse($packet);

TCP

    my $in = IO::Socket::INET->new( qw(LocalAddr localhost LocalPort), $port, qw(Proto tcp Type), SOCK_STREAM, qw(Listen 1 Reuse 1) ) || die $!;
    while (my $sock = $in->accept) {
        my $tail;
        while ($sock->sysread(my $buf, $in->sockopt(SO_RCVBUF))) {
            my @packets = $p->from_stream(length($tail) ? $tail.$buf : $buf);
            $tail = pop @packets;
            $osc->parse($_) for @packets;
        }
    }

Dispatching

    $osc->set_cb('/echo', sub {
        my ($at_time, $path, $msg, @maybe_bundles) = @_;
        say $at_time if $at_time; # time of parent bundle if message comes from bundle(s)
        say $path; # matched path
        say $msg->path; # path pattern of OSC message
        say $msg->type; # typetag
        say @{$msg->args}; # message arguments
        map { # all bundles from which $msg comes (from inner to outer)
            say $_->time; # time of bundle
            say $_->packets; # array of messages/bundle in bundle
        } @maybe_bundles;
    });
    ...
    $osc->process($osc->parse($data));

Ping-Pong using AnyEvent::Handle::UDP

    use AnyEvent::Handle::UDP;
    my $udp_handle = AnyEvent::Handle::UDP->new(
        bind => [0, $port],
        on_recv => sub {
            my ($data, $handle, $client_addr) = @_;
            my $msg = $osc->parse($data);
            say $msg->path;
            $handle->push_send($osc->message(qw(/pong i), ($msg->args)[0]), $client_addr) if $msg->path eq '/ping';
        }
    );
    $udp_handle->push_send($osc->message(qw(/ping i 3)), [0, $port]);
