There is a group of tools known as jack example clients which may be useful.
Actually jack_connect is part of that, look in /usr/bin and see what other
jack* files exist, you probably already have them.
jack_lsp lists ports
jack_wait waits for various jackd events and then exits; see the help file
The reason being is I need to put a sleep into my
script to connect the
jack ports:
/usr/bin/obs &
sleep 10
jack_connect system:out_1 OBS:jack_in
Is jackd already running? jack_wait would be for waiting on jackd to
finish initializing in cases where obs quits out right after starting
because it cannot detect a jack server running.
I'd like to eliminate the sleep command and poll
jack to see if OBS has
any port available.
I'm not sure how difficult it would be to parse the output from jack_lsp,
but I think it should be possible, and if there are no obs ports when you
run the command, sleep 1 or 2 seconds and run again.
