Sonos CLI

Use

sonos

to control Sonos speakers on the local network.

Quick start

Grouping:

sonos group status|join|unjoin|party|solo

Spotify search (via SMAPI):

sonos smapi search --service "Spotify" --category tracks "query"

If SSDP fails, specify
```
--ip <speaker-ip>
```
.
Spotify Web API search is optional and requires
```
SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID/SECRET
```
.
If there is an error, check the troubleshooting section and offer advice if there is a decent match.

sonos discover

no route to host

On error

Error: write udp4 0.0.0.0:64326->239.255.255.250:1900: sendto: no route to host (Command exited with code 1)

Note that the port number after
```
0.0.0.0:
```
is ephemeral and will change and the netmask may not match exactly either
The
```
sendto: no route to host
```
should stay consistent

Advise the user that in
```
direct
```
(no Docker sandbox) mode on Mac OS that Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Local Network will need to be enabled for the top-level host parent process of the Gateway
- ```
node
```
  if running via
```
launchd
```
- ```
Terminal
```
  if running the gateway directly in the terminal
- ```
Visual Studio Code
```
  if running via terminal in VS Code
An alternative option is to use
```
sandbox
```
(docker container) with network access allowed for that sandbox

sonos discover

bind: operation not permitted

On error

Error: listen udp4 0.0.0.0:0: bind: operation not permitted

Advise the user that they may be running via a Codex or other sandbox that does not permit network access (this can be replicated by running
```
sonos discover
```
within a Codex CLI session with sandbox enabled and not approving the escalation request)
