Methods

std::string ALTactileGesture::createGesture(std::vector<std::string> sequence)

Create a tactile gesture.

Parameters:

• sequence – Desired sequence of the tactile gesture.

Returns:

The name of the gesture that’s associated with the sequence supplied. Throws RuntimeError if sequence is malformed.

std::vector<std::string> ALTactileGesture::getSequence(std::string gestureName)

Get the sequence corresponding to the supplied gesture name.

Parameters:

• gestureName – name of the gesture corresponding to the sequence

Returns:

The sequence of the supplied gesture. Return None if gesture doesn’t exist.

std::string ALTactileGesture::getGesture(std::vector<std::string> sequence)

Get the name of the gesture corresponding to the supplied sequence.

Parameters:

• sequence – sequence corresponding to the gesture

Returns:

The gesture name corresponding to the supplied sequence. None if the sequence doesn’t correspond to any gesture.

std::map<std::string, std::vector<std::string>> ALTactileGesture::getGestures()

Get all gestures (including dynamically created gestures).

Returns:Dictionary (name: sequence) of all gestures

bool ALTactileGesture::setSettleTime(float settleTime)

Change the settle time. See: ALTactileGesture.

Parameters:

• settleTime – The desired settle time in seconds.

Returns:

True on success, False otherwise. Throws RuntimeError if settleTime cannot be understood as a float.

bool ALTactileGesture::setHoldTime(float holdTime)

Change the hold time. See: ALTactileGesture.

Parameters:

• holdTime – The desired hold time in seconds.

Returns:

True on success, False otherwise. Throws RuntimeError if holdTime cannot be understood as a float.

bool ALTactileGesture::setSequenceTime(float sequenceTime)

Change the sequence time. See: ALTactileGesture.

Parameters:

• sequenceTime – The desired sequence time in seconds.

Returns:

True on success, False otherwise. Throws RuntimeError if sequenceTime cannot be understood as a float.

Signals

Signals are part of the qimessaging framework, see qimessaging-python.

ALTactileGesture::onGesture(std::String gestureName)

Triggered:

When a valid tactile gesture has been detected.

Parameters:

• gestureName – Name of the detected gesture.

ALTactileGesture::onRelease()

Triggered:When a tactile gesture has been released.

Events

Event: "ALTactileGesture/Gesture"

callback(std::string eventName, std::String gestureName, std::string subscriberIdentifier)

Raised when a valid tactile gesture has been detected

Parameters:

• eventName (std::string) – “ALTactileGesture/Gesture”
• gestureName – Name of the detected gesture.
• subscriberIdentifier (std::string) –

Event: "ALTactileGesture/Release"

callback(std::string eventName, int gestureReleased, std::string subscriberIdentifier)

Raised when a valid tactile gesture has been released.

Parameters:

• eventName (std::string) – “ALTactileGesture/Release”
• gestureReleased – State of release (as a integer boolean flag).
• subscriberIdentifier (std::string) –
