Roon Control Skill

Control the Roon music player with Chinese command support.

Install Dependencies

pip install roonapi

Usage Examples

from roon_controller import RoonController # Create controller (token will be saved automatically) controller = RoonController(verbose=True) # Play/Pause result = controller.play_pause() # Next track result = controller.next() # Get current track track_info = controller.get_current_track() print(f"Now playing: {track_info['track']}")

1. Automatic Discovery and Connection

Automatic Roon Core discovery Token automatically saved to ~/clawd/roon_config.json Auto-reconnect after restart, no re-authorization needed

2. Zone Selection and Switching

Supports switching between any available zone Selected zone is saved in config and persists across restarts If no zone is selected, defaults to zones ending with "[roon]" Use set_zone() to switch zones programmatically Switch Zone result = controller.set_zone("Living Room") # {"success": True, "message": "Switched to zone: Living Room", "zone": "Living Room"} Get Current Zone zone = controller.get_current_zone() # Returns zone info dict with zone_id and zone_data

3. Playback Control

Play result = controller.play() # {"success": True, "message": "Playback started", "zone": "Living Room Muspi"} Pause result = controller.pause() # {"success": True, "message": "Paused", "zone": "Living Room Muspi"} Play/Pause Toggle result = controller.play_pause() Previous Track result = controller.previous() Next Track result = controller.next()

4. Get Current Track

track_info = controller.get_current_track() # Returns: # { # "success": True, # "is_playing": True, # "zone": "Living Room Muspi", # "track": "Bohemian Rhapsody", # "artist": "Queen", # "album": "A Night at the Opera", # "seek_position": 12345, # milliseconds # "length": 354000 # milliseconds # }

5. List All Zones

zones = controller.list_zones() # ["Living Room Muspi", "Kitchen", "Bedroom"]

Command Line Tool

The script can be used as a command line tool: # Play python roon_controller.py play # Pause python roon_controller.py pause # Previous track python roon_controller.py prev # Next track python roon_controller.py next # View current track python roon_controller.py status # List all zones python roon_controller.py zones -v # switch zone python roon_controller.py switch zonename

Chinese Command Support

The skill supports the following Chinese trigger words: CommandMeaningExample音乐播放 / 播放音乐Start playback"音乐播放"暂停 / 暂停播放Pause playback"暂停一下"下一曲 / 切歌Next track"下一曲"上一曲Previous track"上一曲"当前曲目 / 正在放什么View current track"当前曲目"

Error Handling

All methods return a unified dictionary structure: { "success": True/False, "message": "Operation result description", "zone": "Zone name (optional)" }

Common Errors

Muspi zone not found: Check if the Roon zone name ends with "muspi" Failed to connect to Roon: Ensure Roon Core is running and network-accessible Token load failed: First run requires authorization, ensure authorization completes successfully

Notes

First Run: Extension authorization required in Roon, check for the extension authorization prompt in Roon interface Zone Naming: Muspi zone names must end with "muspi" (case-insensitive) Token Storage: Token is saved in ~/clawd/roon_config.json, ensure secure file permissions Network Requirements: The device running the script must be on the same network as Roon Core

Dependencies

roonapi>=0.1.6: Official Roon API Python library

Token Management

Token storage path: ~/clawd/roon_config.json Auto-load: Automatically loaded on each startup Auto-save: Automatically saved on first authorization or update

Zone Finding Algorithm

# Find all zones zones = roon.zones # Filter zones with muspi suffix muspi_zones = [ (zone_id, zone_data) for zone_id, zone_data in zones.items() if zone_data['display_name'].lower().endswith('muspi') ] # Use the first matching zone zone_id, zone_data = muspi_zones[0]
