# puredata class

This repo contains a short puredata class with some examples and a webserver.
Use pandoc to generate the index.html in the source directory.
The included webserver can be used to host the course on the LAN.

Dependencies:

* pandoc
* python3 bottle framework

It also includes a small OSC server that can be used to dispatch data to clients.
This server fetches JSON data from online sources and formats it to OSC bundles.
It currently dispatches:

* weather data
* bitcoin price data
* cpu and ram data

To run the server you need these python3 dependencies that can be installed with pip.

* python-osc
* psutil

The server **listens** on port **8080** and send OSC data back on port **8081** to the client who requested the data.
The following OSC messages can be sent to the server.

```python
/get/weather [CITY]
/get/bitcoin
/get/cpu
```
