googlehomeplayer

This is a django web project to send music and generate a playlist for Google Home speakers with a simple and useful browser (your mobile have one)

Now it's working with static content, it's just a prove of concept. But this project will evolve Google is breaking functionalities, so, probably one day it will not work anymore, sorry, is Google.

This project is based on django, so if you want to run this project simply:

python3 manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000

If you want to use other port just remember change it and sudo is required from 1 to 1024 ports (80 and 443 are in this range)

Open your favorite browser (please, use Firefox, it's your biggest friend!)

To install dependencies use pip:

sudo pip3 install django youtube_dl pychromecast

Probably you'll need upgrade youtube_dl and pychromecast, so try with pip install --upgrade PACKAGE

First time, like any other django app needs some synchronization with internal model, to make it simply launch:

python3 manage.py makemigrations

python3 manage.py migrate

This proyect probably will be growing supporting more pages and functionalities, but you can just tests current functionalities working fine.
