Squeezebox + KNX

[Erwin van der Zwart]

Hi,

There are 2 ways to control it, or by API or by TCP

For API you can use this sample to send HTTP your commands:

require('socket.http')

socket.http.TIMEOUT = 5
ip_logicmachine = '192.168.0.10'
ip_squeezebox = '192.168.0.110'
pause_command = grp.getvalue('1/1/1')

if pause_command == true then
  pause_command = 1
else
  pause_command = 0
end

r, c, h, s = socket.http.request('http://' .. ip_squeezebox .. ':9000/status.html?p0=pause&p1=' .. pause_command .. '&player=' .. ip_logicmachine .. '')

if not r then
  log('No reply')
  return
else
  log®
  --do other actions with reply if needed
end

On this page are the HTTP / API commands for squeezebox explained:

For TCP you can use this tcp/ip sample to send tcp/ip commands:

-- TCP/Telnet 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------    
local host, port = "192.168.2.60", 23
local socket = require("socket")
local tcp = assert(socket.tcp())
tcp:connect(host, port)
tcpettimeout(0.5)

-- Send command as HEX
--command = string.char(0xfe, 0xff, 0xff,) -- You need to put here your correct HEX command
-- Send command as STRING
command = ''PUT_HERE_YOUR_COMMAND"

tcpend(command .. '\r')

--Get replies from controller
local s, status, partial = tcp:receive()

--Check if reply has a value
if s then
  -- Decode data from HEX if needed
  --decodeddata = lmcore.hextostr(s, string.len(s))
  --log(decodeddata)
  --Do your action(s) with replies
  if s == 'put here your expected reply' then
    -- Do actions
  end 
end
if status then
-- log(status)
end
if partial then
  -- log(partial)
end
tcp:close()

Explore those 2 and you can control your device (:
