Config Error #3

Closed lespatots closed 6 years ago

When I add the Music platform to the config, I get the following error at start up:

Are you running homebridge on macOS? For running homebridge automatically, see #2.

lespatots commented 6 years ago

No its running on a Pi and I don't run it automatically? OH!, it only runs on a Mac, doesn't quite say that anywhere?

https://github.com/ebaauw/homebridge-music#prerequisites

homebridge-music uses Applescript (through osascript) to talk to iTunes. That only runs on macOS.

I’ll see if I can check for the OS and issue an error if it’s anything else.

I see its there in the prerequisites. However, its a bit like a software agreement, you give up before the end. Would you consider moving the key line to be the first paragraph!

I guess if I really want to do this I could run a second instance of Homebridge on my Mac?

Sorry to waste your time!

In v0.1.4
