Web Radio Player for HomeBridge

Based off github.com/m-reiniger/homebridge-radioplayer

Hack spawning a mpg123 sub-process because node-speaker in M-series Mac CPUs was a pain to set up.

Presents itself as a lightbulb to be controllable via Apple Home, speakers do not seem to be supported via HomeBridge.

If you want to configure more accessories, just add them like in the example configuration

Important

You need to have the mpg123 binary in your system.

Installation

Clone and

npm install -g

for now.

Configuration

You can configure more than one accessory, although volume is going to be shared among them.

The web radio stream needs to be mp3, since it is what mpg123 understands. I haven't bothered looking for an aac player yet.
