# WS-API: VariableServer
|
|
|
|
```ws://localhost:8888/api/ws/VariableServer```
|
|
|
|
## Purpose
|
|
|
|
JSON Variable Server
|
|
|
|
## Client to Server Command Messages
|
|
|
|
Add a Trick Variable to the current session.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "cmd" : "var_add",
|
|
"var_name" : string
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
Stop sending periodic ```var_list``` messages (*see below*) from the server.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "cmd" : "var_pause" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Resume sending periodic ```var_list``` response messages from the server.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "cmd" : "var_unpause" }
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Send one ```var_list``` message from the server.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "cmd" : "var_send" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Clear all variables from the current session, that is: undo all of the ```var_add``` commands.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "cmd" : "var_clear" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Disconnect from the variable server.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "cmd" : "var_exit" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Set the period (in milliseconds) at which ```var_list``` messages are sent form the server.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "cmd" : "var_cycle",
|
|
"period" : integer
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Execute the given Python code in the host sim.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "cmd" : "python",
|
|
"pycode" : string
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Send the sie structure from the server. Response will be the ```sie``` response message (*below*).
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "cmd" : "sie" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Send the units for the given variable. Response will be the ```units``` response message (*below*).
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "cmd" : "units",
|
|
"var_name" : string
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Server to Client Response Messages
|
|
|
|
Error Response
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "msg_type" : "error",
|
|
"error_text" : string
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Periodic response containing the values of variables requested by ```var_add```.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "msg_type" : "var_list"
|
|
"time" : double
|
|
"values" : []
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Response to the ```sie``` command (*above*).
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "msg_type" : "sie",
|
|
"data" : string
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Response to the ```units``` command (*above*).
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "msg_type" : "units",
|
|
"var_name" : string,
|
|
"data" : string
|
|
}
|
|
```
