Is it possible to send python output from one pc to a target pc with TouchDesigner?

General TouchDesigner Discussion

I have to run a Python script that only works on Linux and send the output of it to another Windows PC running TouchDesigner on the same LAN, and i was wondering if there’s an efficient way of doing it.
I’m quite experienced with TD, but very newbie to Python

Hi @Sator_Arts,

what kind of data is the Linux side outputting? Could you send it via OSC?

cheers

Hello Markus!
the output of the linux script will be just a string of number.
I tought about OSC too, but i was wondering if it’s the most efficient way to do it

Hi @Sator_Arts,

OSC is fairly easy to implement with python and easy to receive on the TouchDesigner side.

cheers
