Introduction

In this topic, you will learn how to install a python script to permit to control a LED / RGB system via webcontrol (or other python script)

prerequisites

You need to have a fully functional ola system


Install script

create a directory to store all these new functionnality

 mkdir -p /srv/dmx/

write a this new python script in this folder :

 nano /srv/dmx/server.py
  #!/usr/bin/python

  actual_program = 'color'  ## program wanted
  param1 = 'red'  ## first param
  intensity = 100 ## current intensity
  actual_fixed_color = 0 ## if fixed color choice, put args here to remember (if having to change intensity)
  R_before = 0  # current color state
  G_before = 0  
  B_before = 0

  pitch = 1

copy client_wrapper.py in this folder :

 cp /usr/src/ola-0.7.4/python/examples/client_wrapper.py /srv/dmx/

create a new python file function : ola_send_dmx.py

 nano /srv/dmx/ola_send_dmx.py
