This adapter lets you control internet radios and media playsers based on Frontier Silicon chipsets. Many devices which can be controlled via Undok should work. Tested devices come from Revo, Sangean and SilverCrest, others should work, too.
After installation the device's IP and PIN must be entered in the configuration dialog. If the radio does not play DAB after switching on via Undok or this adapter try with "DAB starts without sound" enabled.
When the adapter starts for the first time it collects information about the device. For that it needs to switch through all modes. During checking settings the device will be muted for a few seconds to avoid disturbing sounds.
While the adapter reads the device's setting objects and states are created. States can be read-only (ro
) or read-write (rw
) ok, write-only for buttons is also possible.

Developer Manual
## Developer manual This section is intended for the developer. It can be deleted laterYou are almost done, only a few steps left:
-
Create a new repository on GitHub with the name
ioBroker.frontier_silicon
-
Push all files to the GitHub repo. The creator has already set up the local repository for you:
git push origin master
-
Add a new secret under https://github.com/halloamt/ioBroker.frontier_silicon/settings/secrets. It must be named
AUTO_MERGE_TOKEN
and contain a personal access token with push access to the repository, e.g. yours. You can create a new token under https://github.com/settings/tokens. -
Head over to main.js and start programming!
We've collected some best practices regarding ioBroker development and coding in general. If you're new to ioBroker or Node.js, you should check them out. If you're already experienced, you should also take a look at them - you might learn something new :)
Several npm scripts are predefined for your convenience. You can run them using npm run <scriptname>
Script name | Description |
---|---|
test:js |
Executes the tests you defined in *.test.js files. |
test:package |
Ensures your package.json and io-package.json are valid. |
test |
Performs a minimal test run on package files and your tests. |
lint |
Runs ESLint to check your code for formatting errors and potential bugs. |
When done right, testing code is invaluable, because it gives you the confidence to change your code while knowing exactly if and when something breaks. A good read on the topic of test-driven development is https://hackernoon.com/introduction-to-test-driven-development-tdd-61a13bc92d92. Although writing tests before the code might seem strange at first, but it has very clear upsides.
The template provides you with basic tests for the adapter startup and package files. It is recommended that you add your own tests into the mix.
Since you have chosen GitHub Actions as your CI service, you can
enable automatic releases on npm whenever you push a new git tag that matches the form
v<major>.<minor>.<patch>
. The necessary steps are described in .github/workflows/test-and-release.yml
.
To get your adapter released in ioBroker, please refer to the documentation of ioBroker.repositories.
In order to install the adapter locally without publishing, the following steps are recommended:
- Create a tarball from your dev directory:
npm pack
- Upload the resulting file to your ioBroker host
- Install it locally (The paths are different on Windows):
cd /opt/iobroker npm i /path/to/tarball.tgz
For later updates, the above procedure is not necessary. Just do the following:
- Overwrite the changed files in the adapter directory (
/opt/iobroker/node_modules/iobroker.frontier_silicon
) - Execute
iobroker upload frontier_silicon
on the ioBroker host
