Websocket API not working for me - any log file available

Help and Support Help

Hi,

i want to use the web service api for the integration of volumio into my home automation system.

But when i install a webservice client and try to connect to ws://:3000 i get no answer. Making a telnet to port 3000 is possible so no firewall or connection issue (i hope)

is there any log file other then /var/log/volumio.log where i can find the web socket infos on the volumio?

I’m using a raspi 3 with the actual volumio2 image!

Many thanks

Hi again,

i did some tracing with wireshark/tcpdump:
I kann see the pakets on volumio server:
GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.xxx.xxx
Upgrade: websocket
Connection: Upgrade
Sec-WebSocket-Key: Jh0V+O90QzxtIPJZ
Sec-WebSocket-Version: 13

but no answer from volumio, i expect something like

HTTP/1.1 101 Switching Protocols
Upgrade: websocket
Connection: Upgrade
Sec-WebSocket-Accept: xxxxx

Any idea?

Thx

We use socket.io, which is a websocket protocol (more or less). So use socket.io, not generic websocket. See here:
volumio.github.io/docs/API/WebSocket_APIs.html

Hi,

just managed to get it working with a php-class for socket.io.

But i recognized another problem:
Setting the volume to 10 with

$socketio->send('192.168.1.1', 3000, 'volume', '10')){

is working

but setting it to (lets say) 30

$socketio->send('192.168.1.1', 3000, 'volume', '30')){

makes the volume go up to 100
