OBWS - The obws (obvious) remote control library for OBS

Remote control OBS with the obs-websocket plugin from Rust 🦀.

Usage

Add obws to your project with cargo add obws (needs cargo-edit) or add it manually to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
obws = "0.7.0"

In addition, you will need to use the lastest tokio runtime to use this library as it makes heavy use of async/await and is bound to this runtime.

Example

Here we connect to a OBS instance, get some version information and log in to access the whole API and lastly print out a list of available scenes.

For more usage instructions see the docs or check out the examples.

use anyhow::Result;
use obws::Client;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<()> {
    /// Connect to the OBS instance through obs-websocket.
    let client = Client::connect("localhost", 4444).await?;

    /// Get and print out version information of OBS and obs-websocket.
    let version = client.general().get_version().await?;
    println!("{:#?}", version);

    /// Optionally log-in (if enabled in obs-websocket) to allow other APIs and receive events.
    client.login(Some("password")).await?;

    /// Get a list of available scenes and print them out.
    let scene_list = client.scenes().get_scene_list().await?;
    println!("{:#?}", scene_list);

    Ok(())
}
