RDM_MODEL_COLLECTOR.PY(1)

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

rdm_model_collector.py β€” bestie's lil script that goes and gathers RDM model info from responders 🫢


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

rdm_model_collector.py --universe <universe>

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Okay so picture this: this script (it lives in the RDM_MODEL_COLLECTOR.PY(1) manual page, under User Commands, iykyk) rolls up to a universe, collects info about all the responders chillin' on it, and spits it back out in a format you can straight-up import into the RDM manufacturer index over at http://rdm.openlighting.org/. It's giving "data entry but make it automatic." Obsessed. πŸ’…

And here's the tea on the flags, no cap, every single one:

  • -d, --debug β€” prints extra debug info, so you can see exactly what's going on under the hood πŸ”
  • -h, --help β€” shows you this help message and then dips, bye πŸ‘‹
  • -p, --pid-location β€” the directory it reads PID definitions from πŸ“‚
  • --skip-queued-messages β€” tells it not to even try fetching queued messages for the device, like "not today" πŸ™ˆ
  • -u, --universe <universe> β€” the universe number, literally the whole point 🌈
Ngl, if you forget --universe, this thing has nothing to work with. Just saying. πŸ’€

That's the whole vibe, bestie β€” go collect those models and slay. Periodt. πŸ‘‘
