DEVICE COMMANDS
Device commands operate over the device itself. For the commands that operate over the different types of data a device provides see the filesystem commands section.
- [ ld | list-devices ]
- List devices
- info device_number
- Show device info
- [ df | info-storage ] device_number
- Show size and use of the available storages
- send file device_number
- Send MIDI data file to device
- receive device_number file
- Receive MIDI data file from device
- upgrade firmware device_number
- Upgrade the device
- play file
- Play audio file
- record file
- Record into file
FILESYSTEM COMMANDS
Different filesystem operations are implemented on different connectors so a command has one of the following forms:
- •
- connector, colon (':'), filesystem name, colon (':'), and the operation itself. This is the preferred way.
- •
- connector, hyphen ('-'), filesystem name, hyphen ('-'), and the operation itself. This should be avoided.
- Provided paths must always be prepended with the device id and a colon (':'), e.g. 0:/samples. Paths pointing to a data, sound or project file use the index of a file instead of its name.
- These are the available operations.
- [ ls | list ] device_number:path_to_directory
- List directory
- mkdir device_number:path_to_directory
- Create directory and its parent directories as needed
- [ rmdir | rm ] device_number:path_to_directory
- Delete directory recursively
- [ ul | upload ] file device_number:path_to_file_or_directory
- Upload file. If the path does not exist it will be created.
- [ dl | download | rdownload | rdl | backup ] device_number:path_to_file_or_directory [ destination ]
- Download file into the destination directory or the current directory if not provided.
- mv device_number:path_to_file_or_directory device_number:path_to_file_or_directory
- Move file. If the destination path does not exist, it will be created.
- rm device_number:path_to_file
- Delete file
- cl device_number:path_to_file
- Clear file
- cp device_number:path_to_file device_number:path_to_file
- Copy file
- sw device_number:path_to_file device_number:path_to_file
- Swap files
