Issue

Hello,

Thank you so much for your homebridge plugin.

I have a problem when I want to group my Sonos Roam and my Sonos One to play together. When I use this command line to join : zp -H 192.168.1.107 join RINCON_542A1B452AEC01400 I have the following error message :

    zp join: error: SyntaxError: initTopology() not yet called
    at ZpClient.checkInitTopology (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-zp/lib/ZpClient.js:527:13)
    at ZpClient.get zones [as zones] (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-zp/lib/ZpClient.js:944:10)

    at Main.main (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/homebridge-zp/cli/zp.js:691:39)

Could you help me please ?

That smells like a bug in zp. I haven’t tried zo join for a long time, and messed with the initialisation order several times to address issues in Homebridge ZP. I need to do some testing this weekend to analyse what went wrong.

Thanks ;-)

That was simple, just call initTopology(). Also fixed some debug messages while at it.

In v1.4.9.

[pzim-devdata]

Thank you for your answer. It's working perfectly with the update to v1.4.9. The command line to join is : zp -H 192.168.1.128 join "Salle à manger" with the zoneGroupName or the zoneDisplayName at the end and not the zone. For instance zp -H 192.168.1.107 join RINCON_542A1B452AEC01400 dosesn't work.

Thank you ;-)

I don’t know the RINCON numbers of my zone players by heart, so It makes more sense to me to use the zone name, instead of the zone player ID. I did consider using the hostname or IP address (to be consistent with the -H flag), but that would be more complex technically and I never implemented that.

[pzim-devdata]

Yes you're right. It's perfect like this. I meant in zp help when we execute zp -h, the join line should be join [-h] zoneGroupName or join [-h] zoneDisplayName and not join [-h] zone Thank you for your help ;-)
