Python + Shazam + Alexa (via Home Assistant) to recognize the song currently playing on the turntable and announce its title
The flow is as follows:
- Every 30 seconds a 10 second WAV audio clip is recorded with PyAudio
- The WAV file is passed to the Shazam API which will return the information of the recognized song
- If the song has not been recognized or has already been announced, the program exits otherwise it sends a webhook to Home Assistant with the song title which will then forward it to Alexa for the announcement (only from 18 to 22)
- Done!
