General Sofie System Information

Usage in an Application

Create a Quantel Gateway Client instance and initialize it to connect to to the gateway.

import { QuantelGateway, Q } from 'quantel-gateway-client'

const quantelClient = new QuantelGateway()
await quantelCient.init(
	'quantel.gateway.url:port',
	'quantel.isa.url', // or ['quantel.masterISA.url', 'quantel.slaveISA.url, ...]
	'default',
	serverID
)

If the serverID is not known, before calling init() request the details of all servers:

await quantelClient.connectToISA('quantel.isa.url')
const servers = await quantelClient.getServers('default')

Then initialize the client as above.

Once finished with the class, call dispose().
