musicpi

Control, status of Volumio music server over REST API

Point VOLUMIO_HOST = "<volumio_hostname>" to your Volumio music server :-).

By Hostname (any hostname the system running this script can resolve): VOLUMIO_HOST = musicpi.local

Or, by IP address: VOLUMIO_HOST = 1.2.3.4

Volumio music server status, start, and stop playback. Originally (still often used) a short zsh script with the same functionality; This started from a gist!

Running the script

To start the script (it will keep running until the user (Q)uits). Example:

    $ python3 main.py

On GNU/Linux make the script executable, and run it directly. In the repository directory:

    $ chmod u+x ./main.py

And then run directly:

    $ ./main.py
