Is there a function to "Rescan Devices" via the API? #60

Closed erwin closed 2 years ago

erwin commented 2 years ago

When USB devices disconnect and reconnect to OpenRGB, OpenRGB looses control of them and I have to "Rescan Devices" in the UI.

I was hoping to use the openrgb-python client to trigger "Rescan Devices" but I could not find a function for that in the documentation and I couldn't find anything in the source called rescan...

Currently there is no way for SDK clients to trigger a rescan. Because this functionality would have to exist on OpenRGB's SDK server first, I'm going to close this issue and recommend opening an issue over on the OpenRGB gitlab and/or asking about it on the discord.

Great. I thought it might be in there but I had just missed it.

Thanks so much for taking the time to read that and advising on what to do next!
