[Feature Request] Allow local entries for own tools adding songs to the queue

[endyb66]

It would be great, if we don't need the twitch connect, so that users can build their own tools for sending requests to the mod. E.g. i build a small chat tool, which does send the bot request via tcp/udp/websocket what so ever to the SongRequestManager mod, instead of requesting from twitch. Would this be possible?

There is an undocumented UDP interface to do this - used for channel points handler atm :) I believe its on port 10360.

[angturil]

Use code for documentation if you can figure it out :)

[endyb66]

So it should work without connecting to twitch? What about the need of chatcore, should it work without it?

[angturil]

Honestly never tested that.

[angturil]

a better question is, is the chatcore plugin required, and can it work with it without it being connected.

[angturil]

Don't really have the time atm to investigate - really busy with another project this weekend.

[angturil]

best thing to do is just try it and see if it runs

[endyb66]

Okay will try that. I think the presence of a UDP interface could be a chance

[endyb66]

Okay i tested just a bit, UDPListener was started according to the logs. I tested with a small UDP tool, which can send messages. But the question which i have is, in which format should such a request over UDP look like?

[endyb66]

It looks like the UDP interface is just for calling one method -> MoveRequestPositionInQueue(), there are no other methods, so only a "mtt" command will be processed...
Have tested much things, but it seems that it is not possible to use it without twitch. My hope was that it would be enough to write requests to the "queue"-files, but that does not work at all. Do you have any other ideas?
