Let the session manager monitor device objects as well. Make the alsa-endpoint monitor a separate service instead of letting the alsa-monitor call it directly. This means that it listens for device objects and then tries to configure the endpoints when the device profile is set to active. This does not work yet because we can't link the nodes to the device yet because there is no way to know what the global id is of the device we created. Make sure implementations of objects run in a separate remote connection because the main remote connection might block while waiting for a return value from the implementation. Trigger an object update after all object info is collected. We do this by triggering a roundtrip after receiving the info event. When we get the reply, we can assume all info is flushed. This includes the parameters that we received. |

PipeWire
PipeWire is a server and user space API to deal with multimedia pipelines. This includes:
- Making available sources of video (such as from a capture devices or application provided streams) and multiplexing this with clients.
- Accessing sources of video for consumption.
- Generating graphs for audio and video processing.
Nodes in the graph can be implemented as separate processes, communicating with sockets and exchanging multimedia content using fd passing.
Building
Pipewire uses the Meson and Ninja build system to compile. You can run it with:
$ meson build
$ cd build
$ ninja
You can see the available meson options in meson_options.txt file.
If you're not familiar with these tools, the included autogen.sh script will
automatically run the correct meson/ninja commands, and output a Makefile.
It follows that there are two methods to build Pipewire, however both rely
on Meson and Ninja to actually perform the compilation:
$ ./autogen.sh
$ make
Running
If you want to run PipeWire without installing it on your system, there is a script that you can run. This puts you in an environment in which PipeWire can be run from the build directory, and ALSA, PulseAudio and JACK applications will use the PipeWire emulation libraries automatically in this environment. You can get into this environment with:
$ ./pw-uninstalled.sh
