References

This projet is based on idcrook/shairport-sync-mqtt-display

Requirements

• Python paho-mqtt
• Python websockets
• shairport-sync (>=3.3) with MQTT enabled (see configuration)
• MQTT broker (mosquitto for instance)

Configuration

To enable shairport-sync MQTT interface, add the following content to /etc/shairport-sync.conf:

mqtt =
{
        enabled = "yes";
        hostname = "localhost"; // Hostname of the MQTT Broker
        port = 1883;
        topic = "shairport-sync/rpih1"; //MQTT topic where this instance of shairport-sync should publish. If not set, the general.name value is used.
        publish_parsed = "yes"; //whether to publish a small (but useful) subset of metadata under human-understandable topics
        publish_cover = "yes"; //whether to publish the cover over mqtt in binary form. This may lead to a bit of load on the broker
        enable_remote = "yes"; //whether to remote control via MQTT. RC is available under `topic`/remote.
};
