Hello,
I'm looking for a developer to create a basic plugin that reads the list of karaoke singers every few minutes and sends them to a REST API.
I can see in the Karaoke OST extension that it uses the following VDJScript calls
- "has_karaoke_next (number)"
- "get_next_karaoke_song 'singer' (number)"
- "get_next_karaoke_song 'artist' (number)"
- "get_next_karaoke_song 'title' (number)"
where (number) is omitted for the first singer and then starts at 1 for the 2nd singer, 2 for the third and so on. I found these here: https://www.virtualdj.com/manuals/virtualdj/appendix/vdjscriptverbs.html
If anyone could create this that would be greatly appreciated. I'll pay at least $40.

I've made things that PUT POST GET vdj stuff via local host but never run into rest API, what are you making? what are you talking to?

@Locodog I’m creating an app for the nightclub i work at and id like to add the ability to see things like karaoke history, singer list and more.
Karaoke OST only shows 4 upcoming singers on the screen, but id like to show them all in the app as well as give the user a notification when they're almost up.
To make this work, i need to send information via REST from a VDJ plugin and then retrieve that from the app. Problem is, I haven't touched C++ in years and i'd rather pay someone with more experience to complete this for me.

You can also communicate with VirtualDJ with its own "REST API" by using the included "network control" plugin available in extensions.

So you can avoid the c++ development. You just need a timer to update the query.

@DJCEL That's not exactly what i'm looking for as the app will still work when not on the same network. I figure I can just create a program to query VDJ locally and then post it to my API, but for what I'm doing that will be a lot of requests as just to query the information for a single song that will be 3 requests (singer, artist and song name).

@LOCODOG Mac M1 chip. I have actually been experimenting with the plugin linked above but `param_add` only accepts two parameters and I can't figure out a way to concatenate three parameters with a spacer like a colon.
I currently have the following but i also need the karaoke artist and to split them by ":"
param_add `get_next_karaoke_song 'singer' 1` `get_next_karaoke_song 'title' 1`
