# Rasperry Pi RFID Jukebox
|
|
|
|
Disclaimer: this is a perpetual work in progress!
|
|
|
|
This is a personal project of [Annika Backstrom][1] for using a Raspberry Pi as
|
|
an RFID-controlled "jukebox". Given an RPi with attached MFRC522, UIDs from 1K
|
|
MIFARE tags can be associated with media (MP3 files) and actions (currently,
|
|
STOP and PAUSE).
|
|
|
|
## Components
|
|
|
|
* Jukebox app with web frontend (node.js)
|
|
* RFID tag reader (Python)
|
|
* MP3 player (mpg321, not included)
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
This section is incomplete (of course) and parts are tuned to my setup and
|
|
for my own convenience:
|
|
|
|
1. Clone project
|
|
2. Copy config.json.sample to config.json
|
|
3. Edit config.json for your setup
|
|
4. `npm install` (node.js dependencies)
|
|
5. `make all` (Python dependencies, mpg321 dependency)
|
|
|
|
TODO: Can this be streamlined? Maybe move Makefile commands into `npm` commands.
|
|
|
|
## config.json
|
|
|
|
The following keys are available:
|
|
|
|
* `port` -- web server port
|
|
* `tag_reader` -- path to tag reader script. jukebox expects the tag reader to
|
|
spit out a unique string for each tag (e.g. 10 character hex UID)
|
|
* `mpg321` -- path to mpg321 executable. should be run in "remote control" mode
|
|
(`-R`), reading commands from stdin.
|
|
* `stop_id` -- id of the card that stops playback
|
|
* `pause_id` -- id of card that pauses playback
