Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

npm version

homebridge-denonmarantzavr

A homebridge plugin for Denon and Marantz AVRs, to control power in main and secondary zones.

Installation instructions

After Homebridge has been installed:

sudo npm install -g homebridge-denonmarantzavr

Configuration

An example platform configuration stanza:

"platforms": [
  {
    "platform": "DenonMarantzAVR",
    "avrs": [
      {
        "name": "DenAVR",
        "ip": "192.168.0.100",
        "model": "DenonX1400H",
        "zones": 2,
		"speaker": false,
        "zonenames": [
          "Den",
          "Patio"
        ]
      },
      {
        "name": "KitchenAVR",
        "ip": "192.168.0.101",
        "model": "DenonX4400H"
      }
    ]
  }
]

where:

  • name: The name of the AVR to control.
  • ip: Its (fixed) IP address (try configuring this in your router).
  • model (Optional): Model name (defaults to "DENON-LIKE AVR").
  • zones (Optional): The number of zones to create HomeKit switches for. Defaults to 1 (main zone only). A maximum of 4 zones is supported (depending on AVR model).
  • zonenames (Optional): Names to give the zones, in order (main, Zone 2, Zone 3,...). If not passed, defaults to name, name(Z2), etc.
  • speaker (Optional): Whether to use a speaker service instead of a switch. Offers volume control, but not yet supported by the Home App (works in Eve). Defaults to false (i.e. make switches instead).

How it works

This plugin works by opening a persistent socket connection to port 23 (aka telnet port) on the AVR. Since any external changes to state will be reported over this connection, no polling is required. This makes status updates nearly instantaneous compared to other similar plugins. If the connection goes down (e.g. during a network failure), it will attempt to reconnect.

Contributions

I'll accept pull requests for enhancements, additional commands etc. A very useful spreadsheet reference for the commands accepted on port 23 by recent-ish Denon/Marantz AVRs is available here. It's easy to play around with commands on your AVR like:

% nc 192.168.0.10 23

(replace with your AVR's IP address). If you don't have nc, you can try telnet.

Some items TBD:

  • Add (optional) support for multi-zone volume control. Trivial command-wise, but the Speaker accessory is not (yet?) supported in Home, so that requires lightbulb or fan psuedo-accessory or the use of 3rd party HomeKit apps. Probably not worth implementing since Speaker works in apps like Eve.
  • Map other control commands to HomeKit, e.g. changing inputs, surround mode, etc.
