Volumio Play "HERE" function

A play here Volumio Pluggin / Addon which adds a play here button on your volumio web ui screen which allows you to stream directly to the web interface in the same way the paid "Play Here" function operates.

Works on Volumio Version 3

Does not add a button on the local hdmi screen. Note some adjusting of the code may be required to suit your volumio installation name on the network. However not usually required..

Aprt from that, this has been tested and used on Pi4 and Rock 3A devices and survives restarting and functions to all expectations.

You can also stream the music from your favourite media player, VLC, moode player etc by adding the Volumio URL to a network stream in VLC volumio-ip:8000 or in moode for example add a station with your volumio-IP:8000

First of all ssh into your volumio box:-

Test everything :-

cd /data/plugins/miscellanea/labtools
for f in package.json config.json UIConfig.json; do node -e "require('./$f')" && echo "$f OK"; done
node -c index.js && echo "index.js OK"
node -c labtools-playhere.js && echo "labtools-playhere.js OK"
grep -c installPlayHere index.js

All five must say OK and the last line must print 2

Replies shoud look like :-
nano labtools-playhere.js
volumio@volumio:/data/plugins/miscellanea/labtools$ volumio@volumio:/data/plugins/miscellanea/labtools$ cd /data/plugins/miscellanea/labtools
volumio@volumio:/data/plugins/miscellanea/labtools$ for f in package.json config.json UIConfig.json; do node -e "require('./$f')" && echo "$f OK"; done
K"
node -c labtools-playhere.js && echo "labtools-playhere.js OK"
grep -c installPlayHere index.jspackage.json OK
config.json OK
UIConfig.json OK
volumio@volumio:/data/plugins/miscellanea/labtools$ node -c index.js && echo "index.js OK"
index.js OK
volumio@volumio:/data/plugins/miscellanea/labtools$ node -c labtools-playhere.js && echo "labtools-playhere.js OK"
labtools-playhere.js OK
volumio@volumio:/data/plugins/miscellanea/labtools$ grep -c installPlayHere index.js
2

If all is well, restart volumio and wait 30 seconds

sudo systemctl restart volumio

after 30 seconds or more , You can run this in the ssh session:-

journalctl -u volumio --since "3 min ago" | grep -i labtools

volumio@volumio:/data/plugins/miscellanea/labtools$ journalctl -u volumio --since "3 min ago" | grep -i labtools

look at your volumio devices hdmi screen if you have one, look at volumios web ui..

Volumio most likely will not enable the plugin itself on first installation.

So navigate to the Volumio menu and go to pluggins / click on installed pluggins and look for LabTools.

Enable it..

A play here button should be now visible on the web ui... Note there is not a button on the local HDMI display of volumio.

The music does not stop on the local Volumio machine when play back is used in the Play Here area on the web ui. Bt if you dont want to play locally on the main device, reduce the sound on the web ui to 0..

The volume on you web ui , iphone, ipad is controlled by the devices volume not the web ui.

Backup the sytem and youre done:-

cp -R /data/plugins/miscellanea/labtools ~/labtools-manual-backup

The self instal one script sh installer can be downloaded with all files from WorldWideWebDev/playhere-stream: # Play Here Stream for Volumio it will do the job in around 30 seconds for you/ Enjoy
