ptp

ptp allows you to retrieve information about the network PTP state of the player.

ptp IDL

interface PtpEvent {
    attribute String type;
};

callback PtpEventCallback = void (PtpEvent event);

interface Ptp {
    Promise<PtpStatus> getStatus();
    void addEventListener(String type, PtpEventCallback callback);
    void removeEventListener(String type, PtpEventCallback callback);
};

interface PtpStatus {
    attribute long timestamp;
    attribute String state;
};

Object Creation

To create a ptp object, load the @brightsign/ptp module using the require() method.

var ptpclass = require('@brightsign/ptp');
var ptp = new ptpclass();

Ptp

getStatus()

Promise<PtpStatus> getStatus()

Gets the status of a PTP network for a player.

PtpEvent

This event object is generated by the roPtp object whenever the PTP status of the player changes.

type string: The name of the event ( which will always be PtpEvent).

PtpStatus

timestamp long: The number of seconds since the PTP state was last changed. This value can be compared against the total uptime of the player, which is retrieved by calling UpTime(0).
state string: Indicates the current PTP state of the player. Values can be Master, Slave, or Uncalibrated.
