How to Trigger a Script from a Button?

[ContentDeveloper]

I want to trigger a script by clicking a button, without having to press a hotkey sequence, and without having to dona scene change... how?

If you have something like a razer MMO mouse, deathstalker keyboard or orbweaver then you can assign the hotkey sequence to a single button.

I am sure that there are other devices out there that allow you to do this as well.

Thank you so much for your reply!

However, I meant an “on-screen” buttton.

I’ve been looking at doing a dockable window that would use an HTML button, but it seems impossible to use Javascript code to “send keys” from a browser.

I have a script I can run from a command line, but no way to trigger it from within OBS except via a scene change.
