Linux driver for Contour Design Shuttle Pro V2
==============================================
The goal of this project is to use the Shuttle Pro V2 with the
Lightworks Non-Linear Video Editor, but `shuttle-go` allows you
to control anything. It has support for:
* Sending keyboard events (with the default `xdotool` driver)
* Sending Open Source Control messages (with the `ocs://` driver)
* Executing any command through `bash -c` (with the `exec` driver)
This program supports having **modifiers** for your Shuttle Pro V2
buttons. So you can multiple the functionality of your buttons. For
example, you can have different bindings for
<kbd>B1</kbd>+<kbd>F1</kbd> and <kbd>F1</kbd>.
## Layout
Buttons layout on the Contour Design Shuttle Pro v2:
```
F1 F2 F3 F4
F5 F6 F7 F8 F9
(Shuttle)
S-7 .. S-1 S0 S1 .. S7
M1 JogL JogR M2
B2 B3
B1 B4
```
#### N.B. Contour Design Shuttle Pro v1 has the same buttons layout
### Slow Jog
In addition to `JogL` and `JogR`, you can define bindings for
`SlowJogL` and `SlowJogR`. For example, you can use a slow jog use to
nudge by one frame at a time.
If you wish to not use slow jog, set the `slow_jog` key to `0` in the
configuration for this app. Otherwise, `slow_jog` represents the
minimum number of milliseconds between two events to be considered
slow. It defaults to 200 ms.
### Lightworks
Avoid Lightworks key bindings with modifiers however. Capital
letters are great as they cannot be combined, and are more direct and
they are less likely to conflict with your other bindings and
Lightworks recognizes them.
### Drivers
See `sample_config.json` for example configuration of each driver.
#### `xdotool` (default)
The key names to use in the X11 bindings are found here:
https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/keysymdef.h or you can view them
locally in `/usr/include/X11/keysymdef.h` (stripped of the `XK_`
prefix).
You need to install the `xdotool` package before using this driver (default).
#### `exec`
Any bindings triggered will execute the corresponding command through
`/bin/bash -c "your command"`
#### `osc://host:port`
In the configuration, use `"driver": "osc://host:port"`, then all your
bindings can be of the format: `/osc/address/path param1 param2
param3`.
You can send multiple messages with one key by separating those
bindings by ` + ` (that's a space, a plus sign, and another space).
A special `/sleep 0.123` message can be added, and it interpreted by
`shuttle-go` as a sleep between two OSC messages. Use that if your
program goes berzerk when messages are too close.
## Run
With:
sudo shuttle-go /dev/input/by-id/usb-Contour_Design_ShuttlePRO_v2-event-if00
### For ShuttlePRO_v1
shuttle-go /dev/input/by-id/usb-Contour_Design_ShuttlePRO-event-if00
#### N.B. Running shuttle-go as sudo will cause shuttle-go to look for a valid config file in
/root/.shuttle-go.json
#### Without sudo, shuttle-go will look for a valid config file in the current user's home dir
~/.shuttle-go.json
## Install in `udev` with:
**As root**, write file `/etc/udev/rules.d/01-shuttle-go.rules` with contents:
ACTION=="add", ATTRS{name}=="Contour Design ShuttlePRO v2", MODE="0644"
ACTION=="remove", ATTRS{name}=="Contour Design ShuttlePRO v2", RUN+="/usr/bin/pkill shuttle-go"
### For ShuttlePRO_v1
ACTION=="add", ATTRS{name}=="Contour Design ShuttlePRO", MODE="0644"
ACTION=="remove", ATTRS{name}=="Contour Design ShuttlePRO", RUN+="/usr/bin/pkill shuttle-go"
Then run, as **root**:
udevadm control --reload-rules && udevadm trigger
From that point on, plug in the device, and run `shuttle-go` in any terminal (provided `shuttle-go` is in your `$PATH`).

## TODO
* Don't require `xdotool`
* Use xgb's `xtest` package and send the FakeInput directly there..
* Watch the configuration file, and reload on change.
* Have a default SlowJog configuration.
* Make it auto-run on plug, with `udev` rules like:
```
ACTION=="add", ATTRS{name}=="Contour Design ShuttlePRO v2", ENV{MINOR}=="79", RUN+="/home/abourget/go/src/github.com/abourget/shuttle-go/udev-start.sh"
ACTION=="remove", ATTRS{name}=="Contour Design ShuttlePRO v2", RUN+="/usr/bin/pkill shuttle-go"
```
