An elixir package for controlling a Sonos sound system. This is a simple wrapper around the excellent soco python package. el_soconos does not install this package, it assumes you have a working python installation and the SoCo library installed.
el_soconos is a work in progress. It is not a complete implementation of the Soco API, but rather has been filled out to perform a few simple functions. Feature requests will be accepted, pull requests will be welcomed.
Enjoy!
Add el_soconos to your list of dependencies in mix.exs
def deps do
[{:el_soconos, "~> 1.0.0"}]
endThere is currently no configuration necessary for el_soconos.
el_soconos reports on the Sonos network through elixir's Registry module, so an elixir later than version 1.4 is required.
Register for and receive these notifications like so:
{:ok, _} = Registry.register(ElSoconos, "el_soconos_update", [])
def handle_info({:el_soconos_update, data}, state) do
Map.merge(state, %{sonos: data})
endInitiate a data scan with the following code:
ElSoconos.poll_networkThe data will be returned in a map with the following keys:
{
favorites: [
%ElSoconos.Favorite{
uri: "pndrradio:32399648508186355",
title: "The Rolling Stones Radio",
meta: <various data>
}
],
groups: [
%ElSoconos.Group {
uid: "RINCON_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:49",
coordinator_ip: "10.0.1.64"
}
],
playlists: [
%ElSoconos.Playlist{
uri: "S://DiskStation/music/playlists/test.m3u",
title: "test.m3u"
}
],
speakers: [
%ElSoconos.Speaker{
group_coordinator_ip: "10.0.1.64"
group_uid: "RINCON_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:49"
ip: "10.0.1.64"
mode: "NORMAL"
name: "Office"
uid: "RINCON_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
volume: 30
}
]
}You can query for the individual objects through the ElSoconos interface:
a_grp = ElSoconos.get_group(group_uid)
a_fav = ElSoconos.get_favorite(favorite_uri)
a_spkr = ElSoconos.get_speaker(speaker_uid)Sources (either favorites or playlists) must be played through a group. Each speaker is in its own group it seems.
A single speaker cannot be used instead of a group, but the speaker struct contains a field group_uid, which can then be used to fetch the Group.
a_group = ElSoconos.get_group(a_speaker.group_uid)
ElSoconos.play(a_group, a_favorite)
ElSoconos.play(a_group, a_playlist)
ElSoconos.set_volume(a_group, 70)
ElSoconos.set_volume(a_speaker, 20)
