Listener
If you want to run a listener, take a look at the example.js file. You can run this from a Raspberry Pi, pc or mac. The example uses ngrok so the server can be reached from outside your network. I tested with ifttt.com Maker channel and it worked like a charm.
$ git clone https://github.com/orcema/google-home-notifier$ cd google-home-notifier$ npm install$ node example.jsPOST "text=Hello Google Home" to: http://localhost:8080/google-home-notifier https://xxxxx.ngrok.io/google-home-notifierexample:curl -X POST -d "text=Hello Google Home" https://xxxxx.ngrok.io/google-home-notifier
Raspberry Pi
If you are running from Raspberry Pi make sure you have the following before nunning "npm install": Use the latest nodejs dist.
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_7.x | sudo -E bash -sudo apt-get install nodejs
Also install these packages:
sudo apt-get install git-core libnss-mdns libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev
After "npm install"
Modify the following file "node_modules/mdns/lib/browser.js"
vi node_modules/mdns/lib/browser.js
Find this line:
BrowserdefaultResolverSequence = rst 'DNSServiceGetAddrInfo' in dns_sd ? rst : rst rst;
And change to:
BrowserdefaultResolverSequence = rst 'DNSServiceGetAddrInfo' in dns_sd ? rst : rst rst;
