Running MOD SDK

Developers MaxMSP
#1

Hello,

I’m trying to add GUI to my custom plugins using Mac terminal.

Following the instructions on the MOD SDK Wiki I get the image from Docker Hub, I have a folder (Zwabo_folder) with my lv2 bundles ( each one with the manifest.ttl, max-gen-plugin_dsp.so, max-gen-plugin_dsp.ttl files) but when I launch this command:

  • docker run -p 9000:9000 -v /Volumes/SSD\ FICHIERS\ /Zwabo_folder:/lv2 moddevices/modsdk

I get:

  • Error opening file /lv2/.DS_Store/manifest.ttl (Not a directory)
    lilv_world_load_file(): error: Error loading file `file:///lv2/.DS_Store/manifest.ttl’
    lilv_world_load_bundle(): error: Error reading file:///lv2/.DS_Store/manifest.ttl

What’s wrong with the directory ? Typo problem ?
any help appreciated

Hi.
Do you need the \ and space before /Zwabo_folder on your Mac?

These spaces are in the folder path, so without escaping them with \ docker would not know how to properly interpret the argument.

Solved. So in case anyone has the same problem:
The DS_Store file appears to be blocking the process.
My solution is to delete all DS-Store files first with this command:

  • sudo find / -name “.DS_Store” -depth -exec rm {} ;
