This is a wrapper for JACK.

Here’s a quick code sample. Currently no docs.

require 'jack'

JACK::Client.new("myname") do |jack|
  port = jack.port_by_name("system:capture_1")
  port.connect("system:playback_1")
  sleep 5
  port.disconnect("system:playback_1")
end

Please notice that code is rather alpha-version and can contain bugs.

It was tested with ruby 1.8.7 (2010-01-10 patchlevel 249).

The driver’s gems are hosted at Rubygems.org. Make sure you’re using the latest version of rubygems:

$ gem update --system

Then you can install the jack-ffi gem as follows:

$ gem install jack-ffi
