Understanding the Code

Basic Preset Operations

// Get all presets
presets, err := client.GetPresets()

// Check if current content can be saved
presetable, err := client.IsCurrentContentPresetable()

// Store current content
err = client.StoreCurrentAsPreset(slotNumber)

// Store specific content
contentItem := &models.ContentItem{
    Source:        "SPOTIFY",
    Type:          "uri",
    Location:      "spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DXcBWIGoYBM5M",
    SourceAccount: "username",
    IsPresetable:  true,
    ItemName:      "Today's Top Hits",
}
err = client.StorePreset(slotNumber, contentItem)

// Select a preset
err = client.SelectPreset(1)

// Remove a preset
err = client.RemovePreset(6)

WebSocket Event Handling

// Create WebSocket client
wsClient := client.NewWebSocketClient(nil)

// Handle preset events
wsClient.OnPresetUpdated(func(event *models.PresetUpdatedEvent) {
    fmt.Printf("Presets updated on device %s\n", event.DeviceID)
    for _, preset := range event.Presets.Preset {
        if !preset.IsEmpty() {
            fmt.Printf("Preset %d: %s\n", preset.ID, preset.GetDisplayName())
        }
    }
})

// Connect and listen
err := wsClient.Connect()
defer wsClient.Close()

Content Location Examples

Spotify Content

// Playlist
Location: "spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DXcBWIGoYBM5M"

// Album  
Location: "spotify:album:4aawyAB9vmqN3uQ7FjRGTy"

// Artist
Location: "spotify:artist:6APm8EjxOHSYM5B4i3vT3q"

// Track
Location: "spotify:track:17GmwQ9Q3MTAz05OokmNNB"

Radio Stations

// TuneIn
Location: "/v1/playback/station/s33828"

// Internet Radio
Location: "https://stream.example.com/radio"

Getting Content Locations

Method 1: From Currently Playing

# Show current content details (includes location)
go run ./cmd/soundtouch-cli --host 192.168.1.100 play now

Method 2: From Spotify URLs

Convert Spotify web URLs to URIs:

• URL: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1DXcBWIGoYBM5M
• URI: spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DXcBWIGoYBM5M

Error Scenarios

The example handles common error cases:

• No Content Playing: Gracefully handles empty now playing
• Non-Presetable Content: Shows when content can't be saved
• Full Preset Slots: Finds available slots or handles full device
• WebSocket Issues: Proper connection handling and cleanup

Integration with CLI

This example shows programmatic usage. For command-line usage:

# List presets
go run ./cmd/soundtouch-cli --host 192.168.1.100 preset list

# Store current content
go run ./cmd/soundtouch-cli --host 192.168.1.100 preset store-current --slot 1

# Store specific content
go run ./cmd/soundtouch-cli --host 192.168.1.100 preset store \
  --slot 2 \
  --source SPOTIFY \
  --location "spotify:playlist:37i9dQZF1DXcBWIGoYBM5M" \
  --name "My Playlist"

# Select preset
go run ./cmd/soundtouch-cli --host 192.168.1.100 preset select --slot 1

# Remove preset
go run ./cmd/soundtouch-cli --host 192.168.1.100 preset remove --slot 6

Troubleshooting

Device Not Found

Error: Failed to connect to device: connection refused

Solution: Verify device IP and ensure device is powered on

Preset Store Failed

Error: Failed to store preset: content is not presetable

Solution: Not all content can be saved as presets (e.g., Bluetooth, some radio streams)

No Available Slots

Error: All preset slots are occupied

Solution: Remove an existing preset first or use a specific slot number
