πŸ’– ola_e131 β€” the E1.31 glow-up guide πŸ’–

okay bestie, so you know ola_e131(1)? That's the one. The general commands manual page. She's a little tool for configuring E1.31 devices that OLA is managing, and honestly she ate. Let's get into it. πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

ola_e131 β€” configure E1.31 devices managed by OLA.

Like, that's the whole job. You want to poke at an E1.31 device that OLA is running? This is your girl. πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ola_e131 -d <dev-id> -p <port-id> [--input] --preview-mode <on|off>

That's the shape of it, fr fr. You bring a device id, a port id, optionally the input flag, and you say whether preview mode is on or off. That's the vibe. ✨


πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

ola_e131 is used to configure E1.31 devices managed by OLA.

That's it, that's the whole thesis. It's giving "small tool, very specific purpose, main character energy". You point it at a device, you point it at a port, and it configures things. No notes. πŸ‘‘


πŸ’– OPTIONS πŸ’–

okay here's the part you actually came for. Every flag, every arg, nothing skipped, no cap. 🫢

  • -d, --device <device> β€” the id of the device you want to control. Like, which one. Be specific bestie.
  • -h, --help β€” displays the help message. The "girl help" flag, but it actually helps. 😭
  • -i, --input β€” sets an input port. If you don't pass this, you're setting an output port instead. So like, this flag is the plot twist. πŸ™ˆ
  • -l, --log-level <int8_t> β€” sets the logging level, 0 .. 4. Pick your chaos level. 🌈
  • -p, --port-id <port> β€” the id of the port you want to control. Yeah, you need this one too.
  • -v, --version β€” displays version information. A little "hi, it's me, here's what version I am" moment. πŸ’œ
  • --preview-mode <on|off> β€” sets the preview mode bit. on or off, those are your options, there is no third option, do not try. πŸ’€
  • --discovery β€” gets the discovery state. Just gets it. Fetches it. Slay. ⭐
  • --syslog β€” sends to syslog rather than stderr. So if you're tired of stderr catching strays, send it to syslog instead. 🧚
  • --no-use-epoll β€” disables the use of epoll(), reverting to select(). Old-school behavior, activated. πŸŽ€
  • --no-use-kqueue β€” disables the use of kqueue(), reverting to select(). Same energy, different syscall. 🌸
  • --scheduler-policy <policy> β€” the thread scheduling policy, one of {fifo, rr}. Those are the only two, so pick from the menu please. πŸ“
  • --scheduler-priority <priority> β€” the thread priority. It's only used if --scheduler-policy is set, so don't come crying to me when you set the priority alone and nothing happens. Setting priority without a policy is giving "screaming into the void". 😭
