I am a fairly experienced python user, but I have no experience with OSC protocol.

I am helping a friend in building a python code that should do the following:

1. receive a message from MAX via OSC
2. elaborate the message in python
3. send the elaborated message to SuperCollider via OSC

What is not clear to me is what concerns points 1 and 3

PART 0
import methods

from pythonosc import dispatcher
from pythonosc import osc_server
from pythonosc import udp_client

PART 1
setup a simple server for point 1, since I am only receiving one string at a time from MAX:

def listen2Max(ip,port):
    '''
    set up server
    '''
    # dispatcher to receive message
    dispatcher = dispatcher.Dispatcher()
    dispatcher.map("/filter", print)
    # server to listen
    server = osc_server.ThreadingOSCUDPServer((ip,port), dispatcher)
    print("Serving on {}".format(server.server_address))
    server.serve_forever()

but i do not know what to return in this function, also I do not get the use of "/filter" in the map. Is it something that must be specified in MAX?

PART 2

elaborate message with python

some python code that returns mymove

PART 3

set up a simple client to communicate the string var mymove to SuperCollider

def talk2SC(ip,port,mymove):
    '''
    set up client
    '''
    client = udp_client.SimpleUDPClient(ip,port)
    client.send_message("/filter", mymove)

Should it work like that?
