Patchbox chuck module

Hi all, i’m having a go at a chuck module. So far so good, building both chuck for jack and the chugins work and audio is heard on the pisound jack. I’m having a bit of trouble starting the chuck host (chuck -l) right away. I’ve put that into launch.sh, but it’s not being called. Any hints? Does this need to be a service? Here’s the wip. Much appreciated

Hey, how do you know it’s not being called? Try creating a file at a known location within the script to know for sure, like add:

touch /tmp/test_file

And see if the file appears after activating the module.

Does the launch.sh script otherwise work if you run it manually?

Does the chuck software require anything specific from the environment? When starting from within Patchbox, it gets executed as root user, in root environment. If it requires a specific environment, you could instead wrap it in a .service file that is managed via systemctl. Or simply set everything up in your launch.sh script.

Hey @Giedrius , thanks for the reply. No need for the test file, you just gave me the answer: after activating the module.. I was just installing it without activating it :man_facepalming:t2:…everything working as expected
