Integrating with GPMDP from External Applications
There are two methods you can use to integrate with GPMDP from an external application.
- JSON Interface
- Web Socket Interface
Both are documented in the Docs folder. For one time read access you should
probably use the JSON interface. For an application that requires continuous
updates as to the state of GPMDP or needs to control GPMDP you should use the
Web Socket interface.

Development
To get started just pull the repo and run the following
npm install
npm run build
npm start
To build the installers / release packages you need to run, you can only build a platforms installer from that platform.
# Windows
npm run make:win
# Mac OS X
npm run make:darwin
# Ubuntu (Requires the 'dpkg' package)
npm run make:deb
# Fedora (Requires the 'rpm' package)
npm run make:rpm
All releases will be signing with my Code Signing Certificates (Authenticode on Windows and Codesign on OS X)
Please see the development FAQ for additional requirements for building.
