Description

Wire connects one or more Instances to form a processing graph of their streams. Each Wire connects a source and target instance, and a source and target "pin" within each of those instances. Pins are string identifiers that select which stream is to be carried by the wire.

At the moment, only audio streams are supported, but this may expand in the future.

The following instances may be connected by Wires:

Connected

TypeDefault
boolfalse

Denotes whether the Wire is connected, meaning its SourceInstance, TargetInstance, SourceName, and TargetName properties are all assigned, the connection is valid, and the connection does not result in a cyclic processing graph. Cyclic processing graphs are invalid since they can result in infinite computation; attempting to create one will log an error.

This property is not replicated. Its interface does not cross the network boundary.
This property is read-only. Its value can be read, but it cannot be modified.

SourceInstance

TypeDefault
Instance

The Instance producing a stream to be carried over the wire. At the moment, only audio streams are wirable.

SourceName

TypeDefault
stringOutput

The name of the pin on SourceInstance that is producing a stream. At the moment, various audio instances only have an Output pin, but this may expand in the future. The default value of this property is Output so it is not yet necessary to change.

The Instance intended to receive a stream from SourceInstance. Currently, only audio streams are wirable.

TargetName

TypeDefault
stringInput

The name of the pin on TargetInstance that is receiving a stream. At the moment, audio instances typically have an Input pin, but AudioCompressor has an additional Sidechain pin. This may expand in the future.
