gre.receive_event(
channel
)
Receive an event from a Storyboard IO channel. This is a blocking call and works best when used on a separate Lua thread.
Parameters:
channel A Storyboard IO channel to receive the event on.
Returns:
event A table containing the name, target, format and a data table from a received event.
Example:
-- Receive a Storyboard IO event with data payload x, y, z:
ev = gre.receive_event("my_channel")
if ev ~= nil then
print(ev.name)
for k,v in pairs(ev.data) do
print(tostring(k).." "..tostring(v))
end
end
--To disconnect from my_channel:
gre.greio_disconnect("my_channel", true)
