/BAPSicle

This is BAPS3 - URY's In-house Broadcast And Presenting Suite / Playout Software. BAPS development has been frozen for a while, but this new spike of progress is dripping with potential.

Primary LanguageCSS

BAPSicle

a.k.a. The Next-Gen BAPS server

"BAPSicle logo, a pink melting ice lolly."

Welcome! This is BAPS. More acurately, this is yet another attempt at a BAPS3 server.

Installing

Just want to install BAPSicle?

Windows

Currently there's just a batch script. Simply run install.bat as administrator. If you've just built BAPSicle yourself, it'll be in the /install folder.

This will:

  • Copy BAPSicle into C:\Program Files\BAPSicle
  • Install BAPSicle.exe as a Windows Service with NSSM.
  • If all goes well, open http://localhost:13500 for the server UI.

Linux

Installed service for linux is coming soon. Testing is primarily on Ubuntu 20.04. Your milage with other distros will vary.

MacOS

Currently there's no installer for MacOS, so you'll have to move the build/output/BAPSicle.app you've built and make it start automatically (if you want).

Starting and stopping the server, as well as UI links, are available in the System Menu once opening the app.

Developing

Requirements

On all platforms:

  • Python 3.8 - 3.9 Tested
  • Git (Obviously)

On MacOS:

  • Homebrew (To install command line Platypus)

Running

To just run the server standalone without installing, run python ./launch.py.

Building

Windows

To build a BAPSicle.exe, run build\build-exe.bat. The resulting file will appear in build\output. You can then use the install instructions above to install it, or just run it standalone.

Linux

To build a BAPSicle executable, run build/build-linux.sh. The resulting file will appear in build/output.

MacOS

To build a BAPSicle.app, run build/build-macos.sh. The resulting file will appear in build/output.

Other bits

Provided is a VScode debug config to let you debug live, as well as dev\install-githook.{bat,sh} that will help git to clean your code up as you're committing!
