Initializing the project
 |
Note: This example requires Python pip to be installed. |
Run the following command from any directory to install dependencies:
Project Code
Locate the sample file <Wwise installation path>/SDK/samples/WwiseAuthoringAPI/python/low-level/hello-wwise-wamp/main.py.
This file contains the following code, which allows you to connect to the Wwise Authoring API.
import sys
import os
import requests
import json
import codecs
sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), '../../../../../include/AK/WwiseAuthoringAPI/py'))
from waapi_uri import WAAPI_URI
payload = {
'uri': WAAPI_URI.ak_wwise_core_getinfo,
'options': {},
'args': {}
}
try:
r = requests.post("http://localhost:8090/waapi", data=json.dumps(payload))
print(r.status_code, r.reason)
print(r.text.encode('utf8', 'replace'))
except:
print("Unable to connect to Waapi: Is Wwise running and Wwise Authoring API enabled?")
|
Note: The line from waapi_uri import WAAPI_URI imports a declaration of the API paths.
It is located in <Wwise installation path>/SDK/include/AK/WwiseAuthoringAPI/py. The location of this file was added to Python's path dynamically by extending sys.path in this sample.
