Hello Everyone, this is part of a port of the razer chroma rest sdk, while razer offers the official javascript implementation of the SDK, it is quite of an All in one solution, you could easily use it there's nothing wrong on that. However I wanted to practice a little bit and also have some typescript support as well.
Please refer to the src/tests directory to see how it is used, but for short
// true is for development
const keyboard = new KeyboardHelper(true, {
author: {
name: "Chroma Tester",
contact: "Tester"
},
title: "Chroma SDK Test Runner",
device_supported: ["keyboard"],
category: "application",
description: "Test App"
});
async function main() {
// either init at the beggining of the app or inside the function
// just take in mind that this calls the chroma api each 5s
await keyboard.init();
let id;
const autoapply = false; // or true depending on you
if(autoapply) {
id = await keyboardInstance
// auto apply effect
.stopAnimation(true);
// do more stuff...
} else {
id = await keyboardInstance.stopAnimation();
// do more stuff...
// apply the effect
await keyboard.applyEffect(id);
}
// do more stuff...
// you need to delete the effects to release resources
await keyboard.deleteEffect(id);
// remove the connection with the server and remove polling to the endpoint
keyboard.unload();
}
main();While there is a npm package of this, you shouldn't use it just yet, I still want to figure out some stuff and things may break at any time
npm install
npm run build
this will create a Dist directory with the UMD compiled javascript files
npm install
npm run test:watch
if these two run well, you are ready to add/modify whatever you need
alsso if you are using vscode you can debug the tests since they are run with
--inspect by default
This code does not use razer specific product inside the code I based the code to reflect the Rest API that is documented on the Razer Rest SDK Docs
