Monome-serial out of date?

[Nick Ward]

Hi there.

Is this the latest monome-serial repo?:
https://github.com/samaaron/monome-serial

I can't get it working with a project using the latest Overtone from
the git, as there is a conflict with overtone.lib.handlers: I get an
error as monome-serial expects the function 'add-handler', which seems
to have been renamed to 'add-handler!'.
If it's just this change I can fix it, but looking at the commit log
for the handlers lib there has recently been a big refactoring of API,
so I'm a bit wary of giving it a go..

Cheers,
Nick

Hi Nick,

sorry, monome-serial hasn't seen much love recently and it really could do with some :-(

I only tend to use it via Polynome. Perhaps you could try that approach - it worked for me just now - I pulled in polynome "0.2.2".

Seriously though, I need to sort this stuff out, it's way too crufty!

Yep seems to work for me too, thanks!
Unfortunately when I try and connect to the monome I get another error
(cant connect to the port), so going to have to work a bit harder
before I get some playtime..

Which OS are you running, and which file path are you using to connect to the monome? Do you have monomeserial or serialosc running in the background?

Archlinux, /dev/ttyUSB0

Nope.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Nick

Are you able to connect to the monome via other software?

Yep, connects fine with serialosc.

Weird. If you're sure that you're quitting serialosc before trying to connect via Polynome, I'm not sure what's going on.

I really should drop monome-serial and just shift Polynome to using serialosc instead.

As osc-clj has nice zero-conf advertising, a nice counterpart, would
be building in service discovery.

You could bind straight to the ports advertised by oscserial with
something like this.
