I do see that in the JSON-RPC Wiki. what about tagging? I'm working on IFTTT with Google assistant and would like to say "Ok Google" I want to watch <movie name>. I'm working on a python script to handle the GET from IFTTT and process the the suggestion you had.
Thanks for the input.
Happyoldguy, yeah that's exactly what I was trying to do without making an intermediary script for mapping name to id.
jonib, Thanks, I'll look into VideoLibrary.GetMovies.
Ok so last night I dabbled with VideoLibrary.GetMovies and this seems to work to get me the file of the movie by title. Now I need to see how to make this work. If you come up with something please let me know. If I get the solution Ill let you know here.
Code:http://192.168.15.117/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "params": {"sort": {"order": "ascending", "method": "title"}, "filter": {"operator": "is", "field": "title", "value": "<movie title here>"}, "properties": ["title", "art", "file"]}, "method": "VideoLibrary.GetMovies", "id": "libMovies"}
I got something like this working in node.js, it takes an incoming GET request, extracts the movie title, looks it up in the Kodi library, gets the associated MovieId, then sends the play command. I've just recently started teaching myself javascript but this has been working for me. See here if you're interested: https://github.com/destructure00/kodi-lookup
Code:
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var request = require('request');
const serverPort = 8078;
app.get('/kodi-lookup', function (req, res) {
if (!req.query) return res.sendStatus(400)
console.log(req.query);
var movie_title = req.query.movie_title.toLowerCase().replace('the ','');
var kodi_ip = req.query.kodi_ip;
if (movie_title && kodi_ip){
res.send('Searching for ' + movie_title + ' on ' + kodi_ip);
console.log('Searching for ' + movie_title + ' on ' + kodi_ip);
var options = {
uri: 'http://'+kodi_ip+':8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc":"2.0", "method":"VideoLibrary.GetMovies", "id":1}',
method: 'GET',
json: true
};
request(options, function(error, response, body) {
if (!error && response.statusCode == 200) {
var jsonBody = JSON.stringify(body);
console.log(jsonBody);
var nameList = jsonBody.split('"label":"');
console.info("Found " + nameList.length + " movies in library");
var movieCount = nameList.length;
var i;
for(i = 0; i < movieCount; i++) {
var endPos = nameList[i].indexOf('"');
nameList[i] = nameList[i].substring(0,endPos).toLowerCase().replace('the ','');
console.info(nameList[i]);
}
var movieId = nameList.indexOf(movie_title);
console.info("Found match, movieId: " + movieId);
play(kodi_ip, movieId);
}
});
}else{
res.send('Error');
}
})
app.listen(serverPort);
console.log("Listening on port "+serverPort);
function play (kodi_ip, movieID) {
var options = {
uri: 'http://'+kodi_ip+':8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc":"2.0", "method":"Player.Open", "id":1,"params":{"item":{"movieid":' + movieID + '}}}',
method: 'GET',
json: true
};
request(options, function(error, response, body) {
if (!error && response.statusCode == 200) {
console.log("Sending play command to " + kodi_ip);
console.log(body);
}
});
}As for the trigger, I'm using Google Home -> IFTTT -> SmartThings hub -> node.js app, where the SmartThings hub is acting as the intermediary between the internet and my local network. If you can get something to trigger the request on your local network, the request would look like this:
Code:
http://192.168.0.110:8078/kodi-lookup?movie_title=minions&kodi_ip=192.168.0.113HTTP response looks like this:

You don't have to get all results, let Kodi do the work. The API supports some neat filters, the following should return one result with "minions" in the title. You could change the sort method to "dateadded" to get the most recently added or "year" to get the newest, lots of possibilities.
Code:
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"VideoLibrary.GetMovies","id":"1484897668671","params":{"properties":["title"],"limits":{"start":0,"end":1},"sort":{"method":"title","order":"ascending","ignorearticle":true},"filter":{"operator":"contains","field":"title","value":"minions"}}}http://kodi.wiki/view/JSON-RPC_API/v6#List.Filter.Operators

Nice, thanks for the tip! I'll try to incorporate when I have some more time to sit and work my way through it.
The SmartThings hub is pretty awesome, there's a community-created rules engine for it called CoRE that's great for home automation, but also accepts incoming IFTTT Maker requests as a trigger and can be set to, among other things, make web requests as an associated action. I have an automation set up that is triggered by the incoming IFTTT request, then makes multiple web requests using 3 separate web services to wake up my Fire TV and launch Kodi (using adb commands), send the play command to Kodi, and launch the Fire TV activity on my Harmony hub.
RE: Working JSON RPC API Examples - B3rt - 2017-01-29
What is wrong with this command, it t keeps giving me an error, all example give same code
I am trying to get the speed, i want to poll if the player is on play or pause mode, nothing more or less,
But what i try i keep getting the same 'error' that my parans are wrong, changed the id, playerid etc but nothing helps.
Using this on kodi v17
Code:
$jsonarr = array(
"jsonrpc" => "2.0",
"method" => "Player.GetProperties",
"params" => array ( "playerid" =>1, "properties" => "speed" ),
"id" => '1');
var_dump(json_decode(curl_call ("http://".$ip."/jsonrpc?request=".json_encode($jsonarr)), true));this is the respond i keep getting, no speed: (there is a movie running and the info is shown from that movie when i retrieve it using json)
Code:
array(3) {
["id"]=>
int(0)
["jsonrpc"]=>
string(3) "2.0"
["result"]=>
array(1) {
[0]=>
array(2) {
["playerid"]=>

And what result do you get if you do:
"params" => array ( "playerid" =>"1", "properties" => "speed" ),
RE: Working JSON RPC API Examples - ronie - 2017-01-30
"params":{"playerid":1, "properties":["speed"]}

exactly the same, does not matter..
@rONniE
I use this in PHP, so the way ou displayed it is not correct for within PHP, it is exactly as i wrote it in the correct syntax for php
RE: Working JSON RPC API Examples - ronie - 2017-01-30
i don't speak php, hence i formatted it that way ;-)
either way, the 'properties' value needs to be a list (or whatever that type is called in php) and not a string.

ok, but "properties":["speed"] translated to php is an array....
Maybe someone could give me the correct PHP syntax then?
RE: Working JSON RPC API Examples - joethefox - 2017-01-30
as you said, it's an array. Have you tried with
Code:
$jsonarr = array(
"jsonrpc" => "2.0",
"method" => "Player.GetProperties",
"params" => array ( "playerid" =>1, "properties" => array("speed") ),
"id" => '1');

Yep, this is the code:
Code:
$jsonarr = array(
"jsonrpc" => "2.0",

}
}
["message"]=>
string(15) "Invalid params.I really have no idea why this is not working....
RE: Working JSON RPC API Examples - joethefox - 2017-01-30
It's clear from the error message. It isn't complaining anymore about the "properties" value (that now is correctly passed as array) but about the "playerid" value that is passed as string instead of numeric. If you read here -> http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1390983/php-json-encode-encoding-numbers-as-strings maybe the solution is to pass the flag JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK to the json_encode command if you have PHP >= 5.3.3

Example to filter TVshows by path:
Code:
{
"jsonrpc":"2.0",
"params":{
"sort":{
"order":"ascending",
"method":"title"
},
"filter":{
"operator":"startswith",
"field":"path",
"value":"nfs://192.168.1.77/tvshows/"
},
"properties":[
"title",
"file"
],
"limits":{
"start":0,
"end":400
}
},
"method":"VideoLibrary.GetTVShows",
"id":"libTvshows"
}the output would be something like:
