Audio Pipeline

Dynamic combination of a group of linked Elements is done using the Audio Pipeline. You do not deal with the individual elements but with just one audio pipeline. Every element is connected by a ringbuffer. The Audio Pipeline also takes care of forwarding messages from the element tasks to an application.

A diagram below presents organization of three elements, HTTP reader stream, MP3 decoder and I2S writer stream, in the Audio Pipeline, that has been used in player/pipeline_http_mp3 example.

Functions

audio_pipeline_handle_t audio_pipeline_init(audio_pipeline_cfg_t *config)

Initialize audio_pipeline_handle_t object audio_pipeline is responsible for controlling the audio data stream and connecting the audio elements with the ringbuffer It will connect and start the audio element in order, responsible for retrieving the data from the previous element and passing it to the element after it. Also get events from each element, process events or pass it to a higher layer.

Return

  • audio_pipeline_handle_t on success

  • NULL when any errors

Parameters

  • config: The configuration - audio_pipeline_cfg_t

esp_err_t audio_pipeline_deinit(audio_pipeline_handle_t pipeline)

This function removes all of the element’s links in audio_pipeline, cancels the registration of all events, invokes the destroy functions of the registered elements, and frees the memory allocated by the init function. Briefly, frees all memory.

Return

ESP_OK

Parameters

  • [in] pipeline: The Audio Pipeline Handle

esp_err_t audio_pipeline_register(audio_pipeline_handle_t pipeline, audio_element_handle_t el, const char *name)

Registering an element for audio_pipeline, each element can be registered multiple times, but name (as String) must be unique in audio_pipeline, which is used to identify the element for link creation mentioned in the audio_pipeline_link

Note

Because of stop pipeline or pause pipeline depend much on register order. Please register element strictly in the following order: input element first, process middle, output element last.
