Run
The Python package installs executables for convenience. You can start the GUI
by simply running garmi-gui. This will start the GUI in fullscreen mode. For
development purposes it is convenient to run the GUI in windowed mode, you can
do so by executing garmi-gui --windowed.
Remote Control
The GUI is controlled remotely using xmlrpc. There is a convenience terminal
script to quickly execute GUI functions. You can run the tool by executing
garmi-gui-control --hostname <gui-hostname> where <gui-hostname> is the
hostname of the computer running the GUI.
To control the GUI from Python simply connect with an xmlrpc client and call the
remote functions like this:
from xmlrpc import client

hostname = "localhost"
port = 8000

server_url = f"http://{hostname}:{port}"
proxy = client.ServerProxy(server_url)

proxy.show_image("happy.png")
proxy.play_sound("success.wav")

You may specify an absolute path to a file on the computer running the GUI,
relative paths are evaluated relative to the
resources
directory. Checkout the documentation or the control script for a complete list
of possible commands.

Requirements
To install this package you need pip >= 19.3 and SDL >= 2.0.8. You can upgrade
pip by running pip install --upgrade pip. SDL can be installed on Ubuntu
systems by executing sudo apt-get install libsdl-dev in a terminal.
