SoundTouchPhp
=============

[](#soundtouchphp)

~ Bringing the Bose SoundTouch API to PHP

SoundTouchPhp is a PHP Library that allows you to interact with Bose SoundTouch speakers. It allows you to integrate control into your own PHP applications.

- Build your own control panel
- Script / Automate tasks using PHP CLI
- ...

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install the package through composer:

```
# php composer.phar require tomcan/soundtouchapi
# php composer.phar install

```

Then just include the composer autoloader to load it into your project:

```
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

You can use all the commands in the same way. You create the command, send it to the client and receive a response back.

```
// initialize the client
$client = new SoundTouchClient(array('ip' => 'ip-address-of-system'));

// set the volume to 42
$command = new SoundTouchVolumeSetCommand();
$command->setVolume(42);
$response = $client->send($command);

// read the volume from the unit
$command = new SoundTouchVolumeGetCommand();
$response = $client->send($command);

echo "The volume is set to " . $response->getActual();
```

Status and TODO
---------------

[](#status-and-todo)

All the commands documented in the Bose Webservices API documentation have been implemented. (note: unlike documented in the API, /POST baseCapabilities does not exist)

In the more distant future

- Implement Discovery services to locate units
- Implement Websockets notifications

Donate
------

[](#donate)

Yeah, like that's ever going to happen... ;) If you really like this library and have some money or gear to spare, I can always use an additional and/or bigger SoundTouch speaker. Just drop me an e-mail at .

Disclaimer
----------

[](#disclaimer)

This software is not written by, nor affiliated to or endorsed by Bose. It simply uses the Bose SoundTouch WebServices API. More info regarding the API can be obtained at .
