create a stdin/stdout pipe easily over wifi or internet
npm install airpipe> Create a stdin/stdout pipe easily over wifi or internet.
The magic part is that the program will find the other person over the local
network or even the internet automatically, without needing to exchange IP
addresses. Just a direct pipe to another peer.
In one terminal:
``sh`
$ airpipe testshare
In another terminal:
`sh`
$ echo "hello from another terminal" | airpipe testshare
`
$ airpipe free-music < song.mp3
In the terminal to share:
`
$ script -f /tmp/log
and in another terminal:
`
$ tail -F /tmp/log | airpipe my-terminal
This is actually what airpipe does by default!
`
$ airpipe hello-ken
hey, how goes?
good thanks making some vegan pizza
ooo rad
`
$ arecord -f cd | airpipe chat | aplay -f cd
you could also use lower quality audio for slower connections:
`
$ arecord -r 8000 -f U8 | airpipe chat | aplay -r 8000 -f U8
(This example is Linux-only!)
In one terminal:
`
$ ffmpeg -f alsa -ac 2 -f x11grab -r 25 -i :0.0 -vcodec mpeg2video -ar 44100 -s wvga -y /tmp/video.mpg
In another:
`
$ airpipe screen < /tmp/video.mpg
