MMM-Sonos not displaying

jkindelspire

I have set up the MMM-Sonos module by @Snille , following @cohron’s instructions in this post: MMM-Sonos - To show what your SONOS is playing..

Also, I modified sonos-http-api.js as suggested in case this was a CORS issue.

The issue I’m having is this: When Sonos is playing, the module will show itself, but will not retrieve the now playing info. All that appears is: “Loading music…”.

I’m able to retrieve info when I look at http://192.168.1.xxx:5005/zones. The info looks like this:

How do I determine where the problem is? It seems like perhaps the module isn’t receiving the information it needs about the track being played. The state of my Sonos players is being transmitted, as the module will hide/unhide when the the state of a Sonos changes.

Thanks for your input; I’m learning this as I go.

Hello,

maybe a stupid advice, but did you run the service ?

How to Install Sonos-API

To install the Sonos-API just clone the repository to your PI.

git clone https://github.com/jishi/node-sonos-http-api.git

Navigate to the new node-sonos-http-api folder and install the node dependencies.

cd node-sonos-http-api && npm install --production

Now you can run the service with:

npm start

and it has to be run each time your restart, so the advice of the dev is to create and auto start with pm2.

good luck !

The service is running and I did create an auto start with pm2. It’s very strange to me, as I can even control my Sonos from my Chrome on my laptop with the commands for node-sonos-http-api (e.g, http://192.168.1.xxx:5005/pauseall).

I’ve been messing with this off and on for the last few days. Perhaps I should clarify that I’m trying to get this working on a Pi Zero W. MM runs on the Pi Zero W just fine, but this module doesn’t. I installed MM and MMM-Sonos on a Pi 3b, and both work just fine. I’m wondering if this couldn’t be an issue with node being an older versionon the Zero W?
