This extension provides a mechanism for plugins to save and restore state +across instances, allowing hosts to save configuration/state/data with a +project or fully clone (i.e. make a deep copy of) a plugin instance.

+ +

This extension allows plugins to save private state data, i.e. data that is +not contained in input ports. The motivating ideal is for the state of a +plugin instance to be entirely described by port values (as with all +LV2 plugins) and a key/value dictionary as defined by this extension. This +mechanism is simple, yet sufficiently powerful to describe very advanced and +complex state.

+ +

The state described by this extension is conceptually a single +key/value dictionary. Keys are URIs, and values are type-tagged blobs of any +type. The plugin provides a save and restore method for saving and restoring +state. To initiate a save or restore, the host calls these methods, passing a +callback to be used for handling a single key/value pair. The host is free to +implement saving and restoring in any way; the actual mechanism is completely +abstract from the plugin's perspective.

+ +

Because the state is a simple dictionary, hosts and plugins can work with +state easily from many languages and protocols. Additionally, this format is +simple and terse to serialise in many formats (e.g. any RDF syntax, JSON, XML, +key/value databases such as BDB, etc.). In particular, state can be elegantly +described in a plugin's Turtle description, which is useful for e.g. presets or +default state.

+ +

This extension defines a conceptual model of state and a mechanism for +saving and restoring it, but no interface for manipulating that state +dynamically. It is intended that a generic way to modify this state (e.g. +with messages sent via ports) is the preferred way to achieve more advanced +plugin control than control ports provide, but the details of this mechanism +should be addressed by a separate extension.

+ +

In pseudo code, a typical use case in a plugin is:

+
+#define NS_EG   "http://example.org/"
+#define NS_ATOM "http://lv2plug.in/ns/ext/atom#"
+
+LV2_Handle my_instantiate(...)
+{
+    MyPlugin*            plugin = ...;
+    LV2_URI_Map_Feature* map    = ...;
+    plugin->uri_greeting_key = map->uri_to_id(..., NULL, NS_EG "greeting");
+    plugin->uri_xsd_string   = map->uri_to_id(..., NULL, NS_ATOM "String");
+    plugin->state->greeting  = strdup("Hello");
+    return plugin;
+}
+
+void my_save(LV2_Handle               instance,
+             LV2_State_Store_Function store,
+             void*                    callback_data,
+             uint32_t                 flags)
+{
+    MyPlugin*   plugin   = (MyPlugin*)instance;
+    const char* greeting = plugin->state->greeting;
+
+    store(callback_data,
+          plugin->uri_greeting_key,
+          greeting,
+          strlen(greeting) + 1,
+          plugin->uri_xsd_string,
+          LV2_STATE_IS_POD | LV2_STATE_IS_PORTABLE);
+}
+
+void my_restore(LV2_Handle                  instance,
+                LV2_State_Retrieve_Function retrieve,
+                void*                       callback_data,
+                uint32_t                    flags)
+{
+    MyPlugin* plugin = (MyPlugin*)instance;
+
+    size_t      size;
+    uint32_t    type;
+    uint32_t    flags;
+    const char* greeting = retrieve(callback_data,
+                                    plugin->uri_greeting_key,
+                                    &size,
+                                    &type,
+                                    &flags);
+
+    if (greeting) {
+        free(plugin->state->greeting);
+        plugin->state->greeting = strdup(greeting);
+    } else {
+        plugin->state->greeting = strdup("Hello");
+    }
+}
+
+const void* my_extension_data(const char* uri)
+{
+    static const LV2_State_Interface state_iface = { my_save, my_restore };
+    if (!strcmp(uri, "http://lv2plug.in/ns/ext/state#Interface")) {
+        return &state_iface;
+    }
+}
+
+ +

Similarly, a typical use case in a host is:

+
+int store_callback(void*       callback_data,
+                   uint32_t    key,
+                   const void* value,
+                   size_t      size,
+                   uint32_t    type,
+                   uint32_t    flags)
+{
+    if ((flags & LV2_STATE_IS_POD)) {
+        /* We only care about POD since we're keeping state in memory only.
+           If this was for disk or network storage/transmission,
+           LV2_STATE_IS_PORTABLE would have to be checked as well.
+        */
+        Map* state_map = (Map*)callback_data;
+        state_map->insert(key, Value(copy(value), size, type, pod));
+        return 0;
+    } else {
+        return 1; /* Non-POD events are unsupported. */
+    }
+}
+
+Map get_plugin_state(LV2_Handle instance)

+    LV2_State* state = instance.extension_data("http://lv2plug.in/ns/ext/state");
+    Map state_map;
