Sonos Proxy

This code is a proxy between the clearbot and the node-sonos-http-api library.

Architecture

Requirements

  • NPM
  • Node

Running Locally

  • Set up clearbot
  • Put some mp3s in the static/clips directory (they correspond to the clearbot sounds defined in https://github.com/clearfunction/clearbot/blob/main/src/responses.ts.)
  • Set up your .env file (see .env.example)
  • If you don't have a Sonos speaker, then you can still use the local player... just ensure you've got USE_LOCAL_SOUNDS set to true
  • If you do have a Sonos speaker, then you'll also need the node-sonos-http-api running locally
  • Ensure your clearbot is running. It has its own documentation.
  • Run npm run dev
  • Wait for the Connected to http://... message. It finds the speaker prior to starting socket connection to the bot.
  • Enjoy!

In the office

We set this up with pm2 to daemonize it on the Mac Mini in our closet. Let's see how it works out for us!

npm install            # installs this app
npm install pm2 -g     # installs the daemonizer
pm2 start ./server.js --name sonos_proxy  # assumes you're in this app's folder, starts the daemon
pm2 save               # saves the running process as a daemon that will be auto-restarted even after reboots
