Major Features:
• POST /key endpoint implementation with XML model and validation
• Comprehensive media control commands (play, pause, stop, volume, presets)
• Automatic host:port parsing in CLI for improved UX
• Production-ready with full test coverage
Key Control Implementation:
• Add Key model with XML marshaling and validation (pkg/models/key.go)
• Support all standard keys: PLAY, PAUSE, STOP, PREV_TRACK, NEXT_TRACK, VOLUME_UP/DOWN, PRESET_1-6
• Client methods: SendKey(), Play(), Pause(), Stop(), VolumeUp(), VolumeDown(), SelectPreset()
• CLI commands: -play, -pause, -stop, -next, -prev, -volume-up, -volume-down, -preset, -key
• Critical fix: Use 'Gabbo' as sender (only accepted value by SoundTouch API)
Host:Port Parsing Enhancement:
• Support -host 192.168.178.28:8090 format in addition to separate -host/-port flags
• Robust parsing with IPv4, IPv6, and hostname support
• Graceful fallback for invalid input
• Backward compatible with existing usage
Testing & Documentation:
• Comprehensive unit tests for key functionality and host:port parsing
• Integration tested with real SoundTouch 10 and SoundTouch 20 devices
• Complete documentation in docs/KEY-CONTROLS.md and docs/HOST-PORT-PARSING.md
• All tests pass, no diagnostics errors
Breaking Changes: None
Backward Compatibility: Fully maintained
Tested with:
• SoundTouch 10 (192.168.178.28:8090) ✅
• SoundTouch 20 (192.168.178.35:8090) ✅
## New Endpoints
### GET /now_playing ✅
- Rich XML models with PlayStatus, ShuffleSetting, RepeatSetting enums
- Comprehensive playback information (track, artist, album, artwork, position)
- Device capabilities (skip, seek, favorite functionality)
- Smart display methods for different content types (music vs radio)
- Duration formatting with position/total time display
### GET /sources ✅
- Complete audio source management with SourceStatus enum
- Source categorization (Local/Remote, Streaming, Multiroom support)
- Multiple account support (multiple Spotify accounts per device)
- Availability filtering (Ready vs Unavailable sources)
- Helper methods for quick capability checks
## Real Device Integration
- Fetched actual XML responses from SoundTouch devices (192.168.178.28 & 192.168.178.35)
- Updated all test fixtures with real device data (anonymized)
- Enhanced XML models to handle all real-world fields and edge cases
- Verified compatibility across different device types and configurations
## Enhanced CLI Tool
- Added -nowplaying command with rich formatted output
- Added -sources command with categorized source listing
- Display enhancements: duration info, capabilities, source attributes
- Improved build process to use ./build/ directory consistently
## Comprehensive Testing
- 15+ unit tests for XML models with enum validation
- Client integration tests with mock HTTP responses
- Real device response validation
- Edge case handling (empty states, network errors, invalid data)
## Documentation & Guidelines
- Updated CLAUDE.md with build directory and real device testing guidelines
- Enhanced README with comprehensive usage examples
- Updated PLAN.md to reflect implementation progress
- All examples use real device data patterns
