For each incoming event, the handler function is called. +Channels in the global scope may be assigned a default handler function. Python modules may also register `socket` objects (and an associated callback function) with the MIDIMonster core, which will then alert the module when there is data ready to be read. @@ -67,9 +68,10 @@ The `python` backend does not take any global configuration. #### Instance configuration -| Option | Example value | Default value | Description | -|---------------|-----------------------|-----------------------|-----------------------------------------------| -| `module` | `my_handlers.py` | none | (Path to) Python module source file, relative to configuration file location | +| Option | Example value | Default value | Description | +|-----------------------|-----------------------|-----------------------|-----------------------------------------------| +| `module` | `my_handlers.py` | none | (Path to) Python module source file, relative to configuration file location | +| `default-handler` | `mu_handlers.default` | none | Function to be called as handler for all top-level channels (not belonging to a module) | A single instance may have multiple `module` options specified.
