Got a question : Once I switched to tune-in radio for example (or other source), how do I play back the current queue without replacing it ? Thanks a lot !
Hi there! Maybe my question is trivial, but I can't make it. I am able to play tunein radio using the API, this works great. But once I'm fed up the the radio, I would like to switch back to my playlist (the playlist of the group the player I am addressing is in). Event starting from the 1st track, I am not able to do that. Maybe I missed something ? Can something help me ? thanks a lot in advance !
?
Thanks!
But ... what do i need to delete in a second custom "single-play-announcement" so that it will not log the player/music/group-stuff?
What i basically want is, a "announcement-start.js" which logs everything but does not call the backup when finished (solved by deleting line 126) AND a "announcement-stop.js" which does not save a new log, but reloads the existing log when finished.
Thanks a lot in advance to @jishi or everybody who can help!
/a/join/b | /b/clip/file.mp3 | /a/leave/b was my idea but i doesn'T do the trick, because it only plays the mp3 on the speaker b
Hi
I'm new to Linux and also to Rasperry pi so please bare with me.
I have tried to use the user guide https://github.com/jishi/node-sonos-http-api/wiki/Step-by-Step---RPi3-Install-of-Sonos-http-api
I have come so far that I have been able to start npm and it works, so that is good.
I needed to change the following line
wget https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v8.x/node-v8.16.2-linux-armv6l.tar.gz
to
wget https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v8.x/node-v8.17.0-linux-armv7l.tar.gz
by looking at the next line in the guide. (tar -xzf node-v8.17.0-linux-armv7l.tar.gz).
So now I have the following state in my pi
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ node -v
v8.17.0
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ npm -v
6.13.4
Is this a good start?
When I tried to get it started after a reboot I run in to different problem, but I think we discussed this after see if the above is a good start.
Hope you can help a beginner, thanks in advance!
It did not work.

Do you see any problem above?
Thanks @jishi now it works.
I have done some editing below in your guide for Raspberry
INSTALL NODE.JS & NPM
I use Node.js v8 here as there appears to be a conflict netween v10 and npm where npm doesn't work correctly. Npm is included in the Node v8 release below
Clone/Copy to the Pi
wget https://nodejs.org/dist/latest-v8.x/node-v8.17.0-linux-armv7l.tar.gz
Extract & Install using
tar -xzf node-v8.17.0-linux-armv7l.tar.gz
cd node-v8.17.0-linux-armv7l
sudo cp -R * /usr/local/
reboot Pi using
sudo reboot
Use following commands to veryify install
node -v
npm -v
INSTALL SONOS HTTP API
Clone http api files to PI
sudo git clone https://github.com/jishi/node-sonos-http-api.git
ls (will display files folder)
cd node-sonos-http-api (change to api folder)
sudo npm install --production
sudo npm start (this will start sonos-http-api service) You should see references to sonos rooms, etc
Now open a browser and assuming your sonos zone/room name is Kitchen you can confirm that the api is working by entering the following
http://IP of Pi:5005/kitchen/state
For me it is http://192.168.1.240:5005/kitchen/state
You should see something like
{"volume":13,"mute":false,"equalizer":{"bass":7,"treble":9,"loudness":true},"currentTrack":{"artist":"Cork's 96fm","title":"x-sonosapi-stream:s15078?sid=254","albumArtUri":"/getaa?s=1&u=x-sonosapi-stream%3as15078%3fsid%3d254","duration":0,"uri":"x-sonosapi-stream:s15078?sid=254","trackUri":"x-sonosapi-stream:s15078?sid=254","type":"radio","stationName":"Cork's 96fm","absoluteAlbumArtUri":"http://192.168.1.63:1400/getaa?s=1&u=x-sonosapi-stream%3as15078%3fsid%3d254"},"nextTrack":{"artist":"","title":"","album":"","albumArtUri":"","duration":0,"uri":""},"trackNo":1,"elapsedTime":25197,"elapsedTimeFormatted":"06:59:57","playbackState":"PLAYING","playMode":{"repeat":"none","shuffle":false,"crossfade":false}}
START API ON PI POWERUP
INSTALL PM2 by running the following commands
sudo reboot
npm install -g pm2
pm2 startup
Read the printout from above command and do as it says. Could be something like,
"sudo env PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin /usr/local/lib/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2 startup systemd -u pi --hp /home/pi"
cd node-sonos-http-api
pm2 start server.js -x --name "http-api"
pm2 save
pm2 dump
Reboot Pi sudo reboot
Confirm service starts automatically by using browser commands above
I used http://192.168.1.219:5005/SONOS%20k%C3%B6k/add/SONOS%20vardagrum (works) but when I try http://192.168.1.219:5005/SONOS%20k%C3%B6k/remove/SONOS%20vardagrum I get {"status":"error"}?
