Progrommatic remote control via wifi? - twgray - 2015-06-03

I currently have Kodi running on a RaspberryPi 2. I would like to include control of this into my home control system...Linux based with voice control. To clarify, I would like to have my home control server(s) be able to remotely control Kodi/RasperryPi, via the network, wired or wifi, responding to either keyboard or voice commands. The home server is already in place with both keyboard and voice control. What I don't have or know how to do the the Kodi control via network. Is there a published API for network control?

Yatse remote control would work. It is an Android app that I use all the time to interact with KODI.

Yes, Yatse will work on an android device, but I want to control Kodi from a Linux server...no android or IOS device.

I think this is what you want.
