MagicMirror module for playing internet radio
This module is based on the idea of using puppeteer taken from MMM-MusicOnDemand.
It allows you yo configure most Internet Radio stations using selectors for items on the page to pick up:
artist and title of what’s currently playing play and pause buttonsConfirmed working environment:
Raspberry Pi 3b+ with Raspbian with preinstalled chromium node 8.15.1 latest MagicMirror (v.2.6.0)[card:Aruta79/MMM-InternetRadio]
Installation cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/ git clone https://github.com/Aruta79/MMM-InternetRadio.git cd MMM-InternetRadio npm installIt installs a puppeteer package with a chromium browser (~100mb-270mb). If you don’t want to use the puppeteer browser or if you’re running on a Raspberry Pi you may want to delete this extra chromium browser:
cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-InternetRadio/node_modules/puppeteer rm -r .local-chromium ConfigurationCopy the following to your config.txt:
{ module: "MMM-InternetRadio", position: "middle_center", config: { } }, The module is by default configured to play RMF Classic, RMF Celtic and Encore Additional configurationAdditional stations can be configured using the following syntax:
stations: [ { name: "RMF Classic", url: "https://www.rmfon.pl/play,7", titlePath: '#content > #player-box-container > div > #player-box > #player-infos > div > #player-texts > #now-playing > div.title', artistPath: '#content > #player-box-container > div > #player-box > #player-infos > div > #player-texts > #now-playing > div.artist', coverPath: '#content > #player-box-container > div > #player-box > #player-infos > div > #cover-container > #cover > img', playPath: '#player-icon', pausePath: '#player-icon', footerWait: '#footer', }], name - name of station url - link to “Listen live” or similar page that actually plays the sound titlePath, artistPath, coverPath - selectors for, respectively, title, artist and cover image - should point to some elements of the page to dislay appropriate info about what’s playing playPath, pausePath - selectors for clickable buttons to play and stop sound - may, in many cases, point to the same item footerWait - item on the page to wait for to ensure page has finished loading - should be any item towards the end of the page, or empty string to disable waiting - usually good to have one defined, but not needed with decent connectionsThe module also has two icons to control volume, sending VOLUME_UP and VOLUME_DOWN notifications, usually for use with MMM-Volume
