A dead simple linux pipewire soundboard script that works on wayland.

This is only a POC for you to hack on if you so wish. No config files, to configure you must edit the code.

deps

• vlc

pip install keyboard
pip install python-vlc

With nix you can use the nix-shell

With nix-direnv you can simply cd into the dir

Running

# When using nix-shell / direnv you need to enter sudo beforehand
sudo python listener.py

# can be rerun/started without restarting listener.py
python main.py

This should do about the same thing as listener.py, (haven't tested this)

sudo rm /tmp/keyevents.sock
sudo python -m keyboard | socat -u UNIX-LISTEN:/tmp/keyevents.sock,fork &
sudo chown upidapi:upidapi /tmp/keyevents.sock
