Currently only a single integration allowing Navidrome to be registered with sonos. In theory as Navidrome implements the subsonic API, it may work with other subsonic api clones.

Running

bonob is ditributed via docker and can be run in a number of ways

Full sonos device auto-discovery and auto-registration using docker --network host

docker run \
    -e BONOB_SONOS_AUTO_REGISTER=true \
    -e BONOB_SONOS_DEVICE_DISCOVERY=true \
    -p 4534:4534 \
    --network host \
    simojenki/bonob

Now open http://localhost:4534 in your browser, you should see sonos devices, and service configuration. Bonob will auto-register itself with your sonos system on startup.

Full sonos device auto-discovery and auto-registration on custom port by using a sonos seed device, without requiring docker host networking

docker run \
    -e BONOB_PORT=3000 \
    -e BONOB_SONOS_SEED_HOST=192.168.1.123 \
    -e BONOB_SONOS_AUTO_REGISTER=true \
    -e BONOB_SONOS_DEVICE_DISCOVERY=true \
    -p 3000:3000 \
    simojenki/bonob

Bonob will now auto-register itself with sonos on startup, updating the registration if the configuration has changed. Bonob should show up in the "Services" list on http://localhost:3000

Running bonob on a different network to your sonos devices

Running bonob outside of your lan will require registering your bonob install with your sonos devices from within your LAN.

If you are using bonob over the Internet, you do this at your own risk and should use TLS.

Start bonob outside the LAN with sonos discovery & registration disabled as they are meaningless in this case, ie.

docker run \
    -e BONOB_PORT=4534 \
    -e BONOB_SONOS_SERVICE_NAME=MyAwesomeMusic \
    -e BONOB_SECRET=changeme \
    -e BONOB_URL=https://my-server.example.com/bonob \
    -e BONOB_SONOS_AUTO_REGISTER=false \
    -e BONOB_SONOS_DEVICE_DISCOVERY=false \
    -e BONOB_NAVIDROME_URL=https://my-navidrome-service.com:4533 \
    -p 4534:4534 \
    simojenki/bonob

Now within the LAN that contains the sonos devices run bonob the registration process.

docker run \
    --rm \
    --network host \
    simojenki/bonob register https://my-server.example.com/bonob

Initialising service within sonos app

Open sonos app on your device
Settings -> Services & Voice -> + Add a Service
Select your Music Service, default name is 'bonob', can be overriden with configuration BONOB_SONOS_SERVICE_NAME
Press 'Add to Sonos' -> 'Linking sonos with bonob' -> Authorize
Your device should open a browser and you should now see a login screen, enter your navidrome credentials
You should get 'Login successful!'
Go back into the sonos app and complete the process
You should now be able to play music from navidrome
Within navidrome a new player will be created, 'bonob (username)', so you can configure transcoding specifically for sonos

Implementing a different music source other than navidrome

Implement the MusicService/MusicLibrary interface
Startup bonob with your new implementation.
