Reaper UI

An Angular Material based web-UI client for the REAPER DAW.

Create release alt

Installation

  1. Go to releases section and get the latest version
  2. Download the zip-file and extract it into the REAPER web pages folder C:\PATH\TO\REAPER\INSTALLATION\reaper_www_root. Do not replace index.html if it asks you. You might be overriding another one of your web interfaces.
  3. Rename the index.html file from the extracted files to something like reaper-ui.html
  4. The page should now show up as whatever you renamed the index.html-file as within REAPER Preferences => Control/OSC/Web => Web browser interface.

Building

  1. See readme in reaper-webapp for building the webapp
  2. Compile the app.
  3. Go to the compiled app and rename the index.html-file to something unique like reaper-ui.html.
  4. Then take the entire app with the renamed index.html-file and place it into the REAPER web user pages folder (C:\PATH\TO\REAPER\INSTALLATION\reaper_www_root)
  5. It should now have an option to select within REAPER Preferences => Control/OSC/Web => Web browser interface

Development

  1. Clone the repo.
  2. Go to .\reaper-webapp and run yarn to install all dependencies.
  3. Open REAPER DAW and set up a random web interface. (It doesn't matter which, we simply need the API to be running)
  4. Open proxy.config.json and set target equal to whatever your web interface is pointing to. This will allow us to proxy our app's API-calls to REAPER. In my experience, setting localhost:1234 for the target doesn't seem to work for whatever reason, only the actual local IP.
  5. Run yarn start in .\reaper-webapp to serve the app at localhost:4200.
