What do you think I am, a sous-chef?
This is a discord bot that attempts to provide the missing "patch cable" for "go live" streams broadcast from Linux. The goal is to be extremely simple - this is really a "hack fix" until discord finds a solution for this problem.
The idea is that this bot will listen on some input device and play that through discord.
Note: this is just provided in case it may be useful. Use at your own peril. Feel free to make changes if it doesn't work for you!
- Clone this repository somewhere
- Do the usual bot setup
- Prepare a virtualenv:
python3 -m venv venv - Activate it:
. venv/bin/activate - Install required dependencies:
pip3 install discord.py[voice] sounddevice yaml numpy scipy - Put token in
config.yml, following example - Run with
python3 -m sous_chef
My audio is basically managed by JACK,
so I simply run pacmd load-module module-jack-sink, point Dolphin to the
new JACK sink and route it in JACK to "system". In pavucontrol, I assign
"Monitor of Jack Sink-01" to the sous-chef audio stream.
In this way, any pulseaudio or JACK stream can be routed (possibly using module-jack-source) into sous-chef.
As usual, your mileage may vary. If using plain pulseaudio, you could probably achieve the same thing using a null sink and loopback device.
