rust-cast's Introduction

Usage

Build

Proto files are taken from Chromium Open Screen GitHub mirror.

By default cargo build won't try to generate Rust code from the files located at protobuf/*, if you want to do that use GENERATE_PROTO environment variable during build and make sure you have protoc binary in $PATH:

$ GENERATE_PROTO=true cargo build

Run example

Generic features

First, you need to figure out the address of the device to connect to. For example, you can use avahi with the following command:

$ cargo run --example rust_caster -- -a 192.168.0.100 -i

Number of apps run: 1
App#0: Default Media Receiver (CC1AD845)

// Run specific app on the Chromecast.
$ cargo run --example rust_caster -- -a 192.168.0.100 -r youtube

// Stop specific active app.
$ cargo run --example rust_caster -- -a 192.168.0.100 -s youtube

// Stop currently active app.
