Need help with luup for SONOS-morning rutine.

Plugins & Plugin Development Sonos
1

Hi there.

In an atempt to do all me homeautomation in Vera instead of doing it in alot of diferent apps. I have come to my Sonos morning-rutine.

The rutine i a bid more complex than just turning lights on and of on a timer, so i think I nedd to use some luup-code. Unfortunately I do not now how to code in Luup!

I hope that some of you micht be able and willing to help me out.

So here we go - this is my sceduled Sonos morning rutine:

Schedule - Monday thru Friday
Modes - HOME + Night
Sonos-zones - Bathroom - Kitchen
Music source - TuneIn Radio (Chanel “P1” and “P7”)
using 24h - not am/pm

At 0630 turn on “bathroom” level x, source “TuneInradio”, chanel “P1”
At 0640 group “bathroom” and “kitchen”, set volume to Y in “kithcen”
At 0710 ungroup “bathroom” and Kitchen"
At 0710 turnoff “bathroom”
At 0710 set “kitchen” to play “TuneIn radio” chanel “P7”,
At 0740 turnoff “Kitchen”

Hope it is relatively clear where i am going.

Regards Hoekeren

The easiest ist a normal scene I think , you have to use the advanced setup for scene. if you select in the advanced tab sonos , you can select there the more advanced options of sonos. I noticed there need some time between actions.

Also PLEG is a good option to do this, I use both for a similar setup as you and works fine.

@Cor, is it possible to share your PLEG example with a copy of your report? It helps those of us that are still learning the ropes ;D Mike

4

In addition to seeing examples, I have a PLEG device devoted to playing - getting device information, playing with triggers, conditions, logic, etc. If I am stuck, I disable it until I had time to mess with it some more.

@Don Phillips, is possible to share your PLEG example by attaching a copy of your report? I’m finding with the combination of PLEG and LUA snippets that there are some sophisticated solutions that folks are utilizing e.g. PLEG, SONO, GCalII ect… Mike

6

Here is my main, most complicated PLEG. Since changing the USNAP module on my CT30, I cannot get accurate fan status, otherwise, it is working well. Two others are very simple, single purpose setups not worth sharing, and the 4th is an empty test PLEG.

7

@Don Phillips, many thanxs for sharing… I will have to study in more detail, I found it interesting that you had no triggers and primarily used the schedule and properties for you conditions. Mike

8

It’s not very elegant, and I am sure it could be better written, but my little pea brain understands it.

9

Elegance is in the eye of the beholder… I agree I’m finding keep it simple seems to work more than not. Mike

10

@Hoekeren, is seems that we hijacked your original request were able to solve your problem? If not does someone have a PLEG example? Mike

11

Nope - I am stil on bare ground!

A snip of LUA would be great. I am confident the there is a helpfull soul out there. ;D

@hoekeren, I have a LUA snip-it you might be able to modify for your purposes.

[code]local AV_DEV = 15 – Sonos Device ID within Vera
local LS_SID = “urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:Sonos1”
local LS_ZONES =“master bedroom” – Valid GroupZones = “All”, “Kitchen”, “Patio”, “Living Room”, “Master Bedroom”
local WEATHER_ID = 5
local WEATHER_SID = “urn:upnp-micasaverde-com:serviceId:Weather1”

local time = os.date(‘It is %H:%M.’)
local weatherCurrCondition = luup.variable_get(WEATHER_SID, “Condition”, WEATHER_ID)
local weatherForecast = luup.variable_get(WEATHER_SID, “Forecast.0.Condition”, WEATHER_ID)
local weatherLow = luup.variable_get(WEATHER_SID, “Forecast.0.LowTemperature”, WEATHER_ID)
local weatherHigh = luup.variable_get(WEATHER_SID, “Forecast.0.HighTemperature”, WEATHER_ID)
local weather = “The current weather is " … weatherCurrCondition … “. The forecast for today is " … weatherForecast … " with a minimum of " … weatherLow … " and a maximum of " … weatherHigh
local hour=tonumber(os.date(‘%H’))
local greeting=””

if hour < 12 then
greeting = “Good morning”
elseif hour < 17 then
greeting = “Good afternoon”
elseif hour < 21 then
greeting = “Good evening”
else
greeting = “Good night”
end

luup.call_action(LS_SID, “Say”, {Text= greeting … " Hello, excuse me, " … greeting … " Mike. " … time … weather … “. Goodbye.”, Language=“en”, GroupZones=LS_ZONES, Volume=20, SameVolumeForAll=“true”}, AV_DEV)

– function pandoraOn()
luup.call_action(SONOS_SID, “PlayURI”, {URIToPlay=“SF:Enya Radio”, GroupZones=“ALL”, SameVolumeForAll=“true”, Volume=20}, 127)
end
luup.call_delay(“pandoraOn”,60)

return true[/code]

GREATE - Ill give it at go at get back to you all.

@ MNB: The sonos , I do with scenes. very straight forward . But you can also do them in PLEG , I understood they would have no issues with delays during a Luup restart.

@Cor, as you stated the mechanism to execute the LUA snipit can be either via scenes or PLEG. I personally have been gravitating to PLEG of late (It’s hard to teach an Old dog new tricks! but… ::slight_smile: ) I find that it is relatively easy to set-up conditions/logic that scenes do not always facilitate (kudos to RTS) . As to your question I see no performance delay using either scene or PLEG. Do I presume that your translating this? Mike

16

Like I said , I use scenes as well for my sonos “morning routine”. But another option is using PLEG. I understand that when there is a LUUP restart in the middle of a scene the delayed action will not be executed. ( For example , time 0: Sonos on, TIme +10 seconds: this channel, Time + 10 minutes: change channel. If in those 10 minutes there is a Luup restart , the change channel will not happen.) PLEG doesn’t have this “issue”.

Hi.
Firstly a thanks to MNB for sharing some of his code.

I just want to share what I have created for a morning routine. With language localication because my son at 7 don’t understand what the lady in the bathroom says :slight_smile:

There might be better ways to do all the if statements but it works for me

local AV_DEV =49-- Sonos Device ID within Vera
local LS_SID = "urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:Sonos1"
local LS_ZONES ="All" -- Valid GroupZones = "All", "Kitchen", "Patio", "Living Room", "Master Bedroom"
local WEATHER_ID = 34
local WEATHER_SID = "urn:upnp-micasaverde-com:serviceId:Weather1"
local TEMP_ID = 35
local TEMP_SID = "urn:upnp-org:serviceId:TemperatureSensor1"

local time = os.date('klokken er %H:%M.')
local weatherCurrCondition = luup.variable_get(WEATHER_SID, "Condition", WEATHER_ID)
local weatherForecast           = luup.variable_get(WEATHER_SID, "Forecast.0.Condition", WEATHER_ID)
local weatherLow                  = luup.variable_get(WEATHER_SID, "Forecast.0.LowTemperature", WEATHER_ID)
local weatherHigh                 = luup.variable_get(WEATHER_SID, "Forecast.0.HighTemperature", WEATHER_ID)
local outsideTemp = luup.variable_get(TEMP_SID, "CurrentTemperature", TEMP_ID)
outsideTemp=tostring(outsideTemp)


local hour=tonumber(os.date('%H'))
local greeting=""
if  hour < 12  then
    greeting = "God morgen"
elseif hour < 17 then
    greeting = "God dag"
elseif hour < 21 then
    greeting = "God aften"
else
    greeting = "Goo nat"
end

if (weatherCurrCondition=="Partly Cloudy") then
	weatherCurrCondition="Delvist overskyet"
elseif (weatherCurrCondition=="Clear") then
	weatherCurrCondition="klart vejr"
elseif  (weatherCurrCondition=="Partly Sunny")  then
	weatherCurrCondition="delvist solrigt"
elseif  (weatherCurrCondition=="Rain") then
	weatherCurrCondition="regnvejr"
elseif  (weatherCurrCondition=="Cloudy") then
	weatherCurrCondition="overskyet"	
elseif  (weatherCurrCondition=="Flurries") then
	weatherCurrCondition="Snevejr"		
elseif  (weatherCurrCondition=="Fog") then
	weatherCurrCondition="t?get"
elseif  (weatherCurrCondition=="Fog") then
	weatherCurrCondition="t?get"
elseif  (weatherCurrCondition=="Sunny") then
	weatherCurrCondition="Solskind"
elseif  (weatherCurrCondition=="Mostly Cloudy") then
	weatherCurrCondition="Mest overskyet"
end	

if (weatherForecast=="Partly Cloudy") then
	weatherForecast="Delvist overskyet"
elseif (weatherForecast=="Clear") then
	weatherForecast="klart vejr"
elseif  (weatherForecast=="Partly Sunny") then
	weatherForecast="delvist solrigt"
elseif  (weatherForecast=="Rain") then
	weatherForecast="regnvejr"
elseif  (weatherForecast=="Cloudy") then
	weatherForecast="overskyet"	
elseif  (weatherForecast=="Flurries") then
	weatherForecast="Snevejr"		
elseif  (weatherForecast=="Fog") then
	weatherForecast="t?get"
elseif  (weatherForecast=="Fog") then
	weatherForecast="t?get"
elseif  (weatherForecast=="Sunny") then
	weatherForecast="Solskind"
elseif  (weatherForecast=="Mostly Cloudy") then
	weatherForecast="Mest overskyet"
end	
	

local weather1 = "Det aktuelle vejr er " .. weatherCurrCondition .. ". Temperaturen er " .. outsideTemp .. "grader"
local weather2 = "Vejret i dag bliver" ..  weatherForecast .. ".Temperaturen bliver mellem " .. weatherLow  .. " og " .. weatherHigh .."grader"

	
luup.call_action(LS_SID, "Say", {Text= greeting .. ". " .. time .. weather1, Language="da", Volume=30}, AV_DEV)
luup.call_action(LS_SID, "Say", {Text= weather2, Language="da", Volume=30}, AV_DEV)

It says something like.
Good morning, the time is 7:09 the actual weather is “mostly cloudy”. The temperature is 6.8 degrees.
The weather today will be “Clear” The temperature will be between 7 to 9 degrees.

I have split up the text in two because it made a strange pause if the text gets to long.

I havent used all the possible conditions but want to add them when they happen.

You can find a full list of possible conditions here

Hope that someone want to “localice” it as well.

Best regards,
Jens

@jensk, many thanxs for sharing… I wish more folks out there would also start sharing there solution(s) and modifications as it makes the job for nubies a little easier to incorporate into their home automation. I like your idea of splitting the long text into two statements, I have an hourly gong with time announcement that I like the way it announces which is a little better than the current morning announcement, just didn’t have enough spare time to splice it in :o, Mike

@jensk after review of your LUA snipit, I’ve noticed that you have the weather forecast translation (English to Danish) lines 30-50 of the “If” loop has been duplicated (see lines 52-72) is there a reason? Also I noticed that you have listed “Fog” twice and the translation has “t?get” I assume that it is should be “Mist” not that I speak Danish ???. Mike

Hi.
Yes, there is a reason. Its two different variables. One is for the current weather and the other one is for the forecast.
I have noticed the “Fog” thing and will remove it.
Its not Dutch its Danish and the ? in the t?get is instead of a Danish char.

Thanks for the review :slight_smile:

Best regards,
Jens
