Using Google dialog flow and Home assistant, I have managed to make a pretty decent voice command front-end for the LMS system. Currently supported commands include:
play / add album, song or artist t the current playlist play / add playlist play radio select mediaplayer set shuffle, repeat set volume pause, play, next track Supports all defined players in LMS (using sonos, upnp, cast, squeeze players) Also Turn on/off lights, plugs, devices and soon dimmer functions Uses DuckDNS / let's encrypt for secure internet access Current limitations include: - no spotty specific commands for search - using loadtracks command so compound queries are not available (ie: song money by pink floyd) - voice app needs to be called specifically from google home or assistant (ie: hey google, talk to LMS commander) Decided to use Home Assistant (HASSIO) as the middle man to handle the webhooks, security, etc as well this approach allows voice access to any other home automation systems I may have in place, regardless of direct compatibility with Google Home. Access to your system is available anywhere on any device using google assistant (IOS, Android, Windows, google home, mini, etc..) Gave up on the use of IFTTT as it did not support enough variables or have enough flexibility to allow multiple commands or complex queries or provide feedback for missing values. If there is interest in this approach, I can provide further details. A work in progress, but a fun toy none the less.
