I find it strange it hasn't been added to the newest versions yet. Any idea why? We'd like to implement this asap :)

@nacalai A lot of the core devs have been busy lately. It's not just OBS, there's a lot of waiting modules.

Are you on Mac? I could make a build for you if so

Running Windows :) That's kind of you. Would be nice to use it on monday

[bryce-seifert]

@nacalai Well looks like it's in the core now :) Let me know how testing goes!

How to update only this module? Running PI :)

[bryce-seifert]

You are not able to update single modules in companion at this time, only the whole software. Here's the relevant issue.

Hey @bryce-seifert, I use a workaround on the Raspberry Pi when I want to test a module that I've updated that has no yet been updated in the Companion core.

• Clone the module repo into the module-local-dev folder within companion
• Change into that folder, run yarn to install any dependencies
• Restart Companion

For example:

cd ~/companion/module-local-dev/
git clone https://github.com/bitfocus/companion-module-obs-studio.git
cd companion-module-obs-studio
yarn
sudo systemctl restart companion

Easier option is to edit the root package.json, find the dependency for companion-module-obs-studio, update the tag at the end of the line to the new version, then run a yarn for it to apply that update.

Later on you will need to git reset --hard in the root to do normal updates.

@estilles Nice, did not know about module-local-dev. So helpful to use that folder, will save me a lot of time, thanks!😄

Thanks @kjetilpp. @krocheck's suggestion is really good too.
