#Proxy

There is also the openswitcher_proxy python module in this repository. It will run an API wrapper around one or more ATEM switchers. There is currently a single api supported which is a HTTP REST api for sending commands and reading the mixer state.

It can be run by starting the module::

python3 -m openswitcher_proxy --config /etc/myconfigfile.toml

The default config location is /etc/openswitcher/proxy.conf if not specified. Here's an example config:

[[hardware]]
id = "mini"
label = "Atem Mini"
address = "192.168.2.84"

[[hardware]]
id = "mini2"
label = "Local switcher"
address = "usb"

[[frontend]]
type = "http-api"
bind = ":8080"
auth = true
username = "bob"
password = "hunter2"
hardware = "mini,mini2"
 
[[frontend]]
type = "status"
bind = "127.0.0.1:8082"
auth = false

The status frontend provides a simple html page with the state of the connected switchers and a list of the enabled frontends.

The http-api frontend provides a HTTP server that can return any of the supported fields as json and trigger commands by sending a HTTP POST request with formfields or json
