Casts a random Seinfeld transition bass riff or a HTTPS accessible MP3 through a Google Home device on your network. Can run on its own or triggered with the included custom SmartThings app.
Run node app.js first time and it will log the castable devices to your network.
The app will run at http://localhost:3000 and also a publiclly available address via ngrok like https://1234.ngrok.io.
Make an HTTP POST request to /door with a field called "ip" and the value of the IP address of the Google Home device on your network
that was logged to the console. You don't need the port number. Ex:
curl -X POST -d "ip=192.168.1.215" https://1234.ngrok.io/door
Your Google Home will play a chime sound when the connection is made and then play a random numbered MP3 from a storage bucket. Please use your own MP3s!
You can also play any MP3 from a URL with:
curl -X POST -d "ip=192.168.1.215&url=https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/blog-spokeo-test/seinfeld.mp3" https://1234.ngrok.io/url
Please note that the MP3 MUST be served over HTTPS.
Set up an API account according to the SmartThings docs. Go to My SmartApps>New SmartApp.
Click the "From Code" tab, copy and paste the contents of smartthings-app-seinfeld-door-entrance.groovy and click 'Create'.
Make sure the door sensor reads CLOSED before installing the app. The app will play the music every other time the door opens so
that when you open the door to exit the sound doesn't play but will play on entrance.
From the SmartThings app, go to Automation>SmartApps>Add a SmartApp>My Apps and select Seinfeld Door Entrance.
Enter the ngrok address from the node app setup and the IP address of the Google Home you wish to cast too. Then select your door sensor.
When the door opens, an HTTP POST request is made to the node app, the node app connects to the Google Home and casts an MP3 to it.
