Open Sound Control server and client implementations in pure python.
Current status
This library was developed following the OpenSoundControl Specification 1.0 and is currently in a stable state.
Features
UDP and TCP blocking/threading/forking/asyncio server implementations
UDP and TCP clients, including asyncio support
TCP support for 1.0 and 1.1 protocol formats
int, int64, float, string, double, MIDI, timestamps, blob, nil OSC arguments
simple OSC address<->callback matching system
support for sending responses from callback handlers in client and server
extensive unit test coverage
basic client and server examples
Documentation
Available at https://python-osc.readthedocs.io/.
Installation
python-osc is a pure python library that has no external dependencies, to install it just use pip (prefered):
$ pip install python-oscExamples
Simple client
"""Small example OSC client
This program sends 10 random values between 0.0 and 1.0 to the /filter address,
waiting for 1 seconds between each value.

# Add 4 messages in the bundle, each with more arguments.
bundle.add_content(msg.build())
msg.add_arg(2)
bundle.add_content(msg.build())
msg.add_arg("value")
bundle.add_content(msg.build())
msg.add_arg(b"\x01\x02\x03")
bundle.add_content(msg.build())
sub_bundle = bundle.build()
# Now add the same bundle inside itself.
bundle.add_content(sub_bundle)
# The bundle has 5 elements in total now.
bundle = bundle.build()
# You can now send it via a client with the `.send()` method:
client.send(bundle)License?
