Just wanted to share a library that I found and use in order to command Bose soundtouch speaker with domoticz.
This library is based on the official API provided by Bose so it's very stable and complete.
Link to lib: https://github.com/CharlesBlonde/libsoundtouch
What you can do with this:
- Multiroom (from any sources, presets or airplay)
- commands like play, pause next song...
- Select presets
- Send music from different sources (URL, Spotify)
- Power on or off
I made a script to go with this lib, I didn't found any tutorial or any real examples of how this should work so I thought I'd share mine.
Code: Select all

enceinte_salon.create_zone([enceinte_cuisine]) # Here "enceinte_salon" is the master "enceinte_cuisine" is the slave

enceinte_salon.select_preset(presets[0]) # setting preset one one master speaker that will sync with slave/slaves
Sorry for the poor coding, I don't know anything about python and I just made this work. It works in 2 case; with 2 or 3 speaker. This code is not meant to be used as it is but to be used as an example for you to do your own script. Sorry about the French names.
Don't forget to sudo chmod +x your script before using in a switch. Time I can loose on this things
If I can help in any way feel free to ask.
