Can you change values of certain sources (like Text GDI+) with obsws-python?

Is there a part in the code that allows you to change the value of a Text or an image?

Hi,

That's possible using ReqClient class.

For initial connection, (from the example in README)

>>>import obsws_python as obs

# pass conn info if not in config.toml
>>>cl = obs.ReqClient(host='localhost', port=4455, password='mystrongpass', timeout=3)

Now you have a client to make requests to OBS websocket.

• First you need the settings of your input (for your case, text-input)
  Assume name of the text input is test_string. To get the settings

>>> resp = cl.get_input_settings("test_string")

# to access the settings inside the resp use  input_settings attribute

>>>print(resp.input_settings)

{'text': 'hello world'}

Now you know what input settings look like. So you can use this as a template and change the text as you wish using set_input_settings method

>>> new_settings = {'text': 'WHATS UP'}
>>> cl.set_input_settings("test_string", new_settings, True)
# now text should be changed.

Details for each method and their parameters can be found using docstrings

>>> help(cl.set_input_settings)

Hope it helps
