obs-powershell

[StartAutomating]

Since obs-websocket was nice enough to include a .json file with all requests, I was able to use that to generate out a PowerShell module which contains a function for every request.

I give you all obs-powershell.

Here are some examples of what you can do:

Installing and importing

obs-powershell is available on the PowerShell gallery, so you can use these two simple lines to install / import

Install-Module obs-powershell -Scope CurrentUser -Force
Import-Module obs-powershell -PassThru -Force

Examples

Getting all monitors

Get-OBSMonitor

Getting all kinds of available inputs

Get-OBSInputKind

Getting OBS Starts

Get-OBSStats

Getting Recording Status

Get-OBSRecordStatus

Starting Recording

Start-OBSRecord

Stopping Recording

Stop-OBSRecord

Start Recording, Wait 5 seconds, Stop Recording, and Play the Recording.

Start-OBSRecord

Start-Sleep -Seconds 5

Stop-OBSRecord |
    Invoke-Item

Listing scenes

Get-OBSScene

Enabling all sources in all scenes

Get-OBSScene |
    Select-Object -ExpandProperty Scene
    Get-OBSSceneItem |
    Set-OBSSceneItemEnabled -sceneItemEnabled

Disabling all sources in all scenes

Get-OBSScene |
    Select-Object -ExpandProperty Scene
    Get-OBSSceneItem |
    Set-OBSSceneItemEnabled -sceneItemEnabled:$false

Adding a Browser Input to all scenes

Get-OBSScene | 
    Add-OBSInput -inputName "Browser Input 2" -inputKind browser_source -inputSettings @{
        width=1920
        height=1080
        url='https://pssvg.start-automating.com/Examples/SpinningSpiral901.svg'
    }

Thanks so much for making obs-websocket part of obs, and for providing such nice protocol documentation, when a very helpful .json file containing all requests. This has been really fun to build out and will be even more fun to continue to extend.

Please let me know what you think, and file issues if you have any.
