Homebridge plugin that creates a smart speaker accessory that shows playing/paused for airport express devices and has optional switch that can be used to trigger home automations.
This easiest way to use this plugin is to use homebridge-config-ui-x.
To configure manually, add to the platforms section of Homebridge's config.json after installing the plugin.
Config:
{
"platform": "AirportExpressPlaying",
"name": "Airport Express Playing Platform",
"showSwitch": true
}- Will not work when AirPlaying from iTunes running on Win10
- Will not work in many situations involving grouped accessories due to limitations in mDNS
