SONOS for NodeRED

A set of nodes to control SONOS via NodeRED. Uses the sonos NPM Module.

Currently early alpha version ... development ongoing.

Open points / not tested yet:

• manipulating playlists
• zone configurations
• controlling stereo and or surround configurations
• automatic detection of play configuration

Known issues:

• Queue behavior changed, fixed quick and dirty the functions, please raise issues in case something is not working as expected.
• status is only set according to input, not requested from player

Planned upcoming features:

• annoucement node (should play a jingle or a text to speech thing and then continue with current playlist)

Current Track - returns the currently played track

• "songuri":<uri of the song to be queued>
• "position":0..<max_queue_length>,next

Group - controls join or leave of a group. The node itself represents the "master". Master node is also the one play stop and other activities will continue to work. Available modes:
