Sockets!! I'm trying to recieve the state of the sonos system when something changes.

Hi I'm trying to recieve the state from the http-api when someone makes changes like volume + 1 or play/pause. I saw the Sonos Push Server (JS) but that didn't work/helped me. Hopefully someone can help me with this problem :).

Did you look at the webhook implementation?

But if you want to use something like websockets, you'd be better off implementing the sonos-discovery package directly. I built a web controller around that one, you can look at that to get some inspiration.

Hi @jishi thnx for your answer! I tried to use that webhook but it won't work. Thne while the sonos-http-api connects with the push server the Sonos push server doesn't recieve requests??

I edited the settings.json but that didn't work.

// current settings.json
{
    "webhook": "http://localhost:5007/"
}

Are you running the latest Master? Can't help with someone elses code. Webhook -> websocket server is kind of a dumb setup, it's pretty trivial to write a wrapper around the sonos-discovery lib like I did with the web-controller. You could even use that directly and just connect from whatever web page you want.

Yeah took a blink at the Sonos discovery library but could not directly find how it is structured/how it works.

You could also look at this stub I wrote a while back, it was built for keeping track of playback status, so it tracks if the state changes. Maybe you can adapt that into what you need:
