# GStreamer command-line cheat sheet
|
|
|
|
This series of docs provides a cheat sheet for GStreamer on the command-line.
|
|
A few Python examples are also included for when you need GStreamer to be dynamic (i.e. react to user or some other action).

## Interacting with the GStreamer pipeline
|
|
|
|
If you want to interact with GStreamer after it's started (e.g. respond to an event, or dynamically change a pipeline), the command-line GStreamer doesn't really cut it. Instead, here are some options:
|
|
|
|
* *[GStreamer Daemon (gstd)](https://github.com/RidgeRun/gstd-1.x)* - allows setting and updating via a TCP connection
|
|
* *[Snowmix](http://snowmix.sourceforge.net/)* - an open-source live video mixer
|
|
* *Develop using the GStreamer library*, in either [C](https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/application-development/basics/helloworld.html), [Python](https://github.com/GStreamer/gst-python), or [C#/.NET](https://github.com/GStreamer/gstreamer-sharp)

### Python with GStreamer
|
|
|
|
Good GStreamer Python resources include:
|
|
|
|
* [Getting started with GStreamer with Python](https://www.jonobacon.com/2006/08/28/getting-started-with-gstreamer-with-python/)
|
|
* [Python GStreamer Tutorial](http://brettviren.github.io/pygst-tutorial-org/pygst-tutorial.html)
|
|
* [Function reference](http://lazka.github.io/pgi-docs/#Gst-1.0)
|
|
* [Nice example script](https://github.com/rabits/rstream/blob/master/rstream.py)
|

### C++ with GStreamer

My favourite reference is [Valadoc](https://valadoc.org/gstreamer-1.0/index.htm)
