Here's a project I'm working on for a while now.
I have a couple of airplay locations in house (for example: bathroom, kitchen, garage).
At 6:30 radio starts playing in the bathroom, at 7:00 in the kitchen etcetera.
But I also wanted to control it manually on location with a hardware button.
The KlikaanKlikuit AWST-8802 switches trigger a switch in Domoticz (on Raspberry Pi) which does a webcall to my Mac which triggers the AppleScript.
The on-button has three functions:
(if music is not playing) start playing a specific radio station from specific playlist or
(if music is playing but not on this speaker) add this airport to itunes selected devices or
(if music is playing on this speaker) play next song.
The off-button has two functions:
(if music is playing on this speaker) remove this airport from selected itunes devices or
(if music is not playing on this speaker) let itunes stop playing over all speakers and remove all speakers as selected device.
The On-Action of the device looks like this:
Code: Select all
http://admin:[email protected]/radio_control.php?state=on&speaker=AE_Kitchen&volume=50
Code: Select all
http://admin:[email protected]/radio_control.php?state=off&speaker=AE_Kitchen
Code: Select all
<?php
if (count($_GET) >= 2) {
$speaker = str_replace('_', ' ', $_GET['speaker']);
$cmd = 'sudo su "kevin" -c "/usr/bin/osascript /path/to/script/radio_airplay.scpt ' .
$_GET['state'] . ' ' .
'\'' . $speaker . '\' ' .
(@$_GET['volume'] ?: '') . '"';
$result = exec($cmd);
var_dump($cmd);
var_dump($result);
}
?>
