Readme
Plugin that provides client-side scripts for BrowserSync, supporting the transimission of key events to any TAL application.
TAL was developed internally within the BBC as a way of vastly simplifying TV application development whilst increasing the reach of BBC TV applications such as iPlayer. Today all of the BBC's HTML-based TV applications are built using TAL.
BrowserSync (with these TAL addons) allows us to launch a TAL application on a number of remote devices, and then remote-control those devices via a desktop browser.
* Support for device-to-device controlling would be interesting too *
Install BrowserSync:
npm install -g browser-sync
Install the BrowserSync TAL plugin:
npm install -g https://github.com/rosswilson/browser-sync-tal.git
Create a config file (you could check this into your application codebase):
# browser-sync.js
module.exports = {
"proxy": "www.my.application.com",
"plugins": [
"bs-tal"
]
};
Run BrowserSync:
browser-sync start --config browser-sync.js
Point remote devices at http://YOUR_IP:3000
(e.g. from your TVX page) - this is echoed out in your terminal for convenience. Any keypresses received by the application running on your computer (Chrome/Firefox) will be sent over the network to all connected remote devices.
Currently the plugin calls InputApi.keypress(talKeyCode)
which is expected to be globally available on the remote device. This is a small function that receives a talKeyCode (e.g. VK_UP or VK_LEFT) and bubbles a TAL KeyEvent event.
