A simple proof of concept plugin for switching profiles with WebSocket messages from Keyboard Maestro macros.

git clone https://github.com/dtsmarin/sdprofileswitch

npm install

Create a SymLink of your plugin folder inside the Stream Deck's Plugins folder.

ln -s $(pwd)/com.example.profile-switch.sdPlugin ~/Library/Application\ Support/com.elgato.StreamDeck/Plugins/

Copy the profiles you want to use as a starting point inside the com.example.profile-switch.sdPlugin folder of the repo.

In the manifest.json file define the same profiles using the exact name and the correct DeviceType code for your SD device.

Inside the file plugin.ts change the Websocket switch cases and profile names to match your requirements.

Build the plugin with npm run build.

Add the template counter function inside any existing user StreamDeck profile to initialize the plugin.

When the plugin receives any WebSocket message that matches any of the switch cases Stream Deck will prompt you to install the profiles you bundled with the plugin.

This specific code is not neccesary, you can use anything that works in a similar way (Basic WebSocket client). I'm not a Rust expert.

cargo build --release

Usage:

streamdeckws <message string>

• Add an If Then Else block.
• To avoid sending to the WebSocket server when it doesn't exist add as a condition: This application: -> Elgato Stream Deck -> is running
• Inside the execute the following actions branch add an Execute Shell Script block.

[pathToYourRustExecutable]/streamdeckws <message string>

I'll have to update the plugin to use the new SDK 0.2.0 because there are some useful features to explore: https://github.com/elgatosf/streamdeck/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md
