Description:
onsigntvappsimulator 1.3.1
OnSign TV App Simulator
This simulator makes it easier to develop OnSign TV Apps by testing your configuration locally, without having to upload your HTML to OnSign TV every time you make a change while developing your app.
Installing
This simulator requires Python 3.8 and up. You can optionally install ffmpeg to determine the duration of video and audio files, but that is not needed unless you plan on using those attributes on your app. If you want ID3 information for audio files, you'll also need to install mutagen.
Installing from PyPI
You can easily install it from PyPI:
pip install onsigntv-app-simulator

Using the Simulator
After installing, running the simulator is very simple. The following command should be in your path:
onsigntv-app-simulator path/to/apps
If you don't specify a path, the app simulator will use your current working directory.
After running, open your browser and navigate to http://127.0.01:8080/. Click on your template file, fill in the options and start developing.
The app simulator will automatically track files – like images, CSS or Javascript - used by your app. If any file used changes the app will be automatically reloaded.
Heads Up! If you installed the simulator in a virtualenv the command should be running with the virtualenv activated!
