Multiroom audio controlled via Siri

Hi folks,

first of all I wanted to thank ejurgensen for his amazing work at forked-daapd!! Especially the great JSON API and the shiny new web frontend are big friends of mine ;)

Because of the introduction to this Wiki - to have some space to introduce other projects with forked-daapd I wanted to advertise a small project of mine: forked-daapd-homebridge-middleware. This is a small middleware I wrote to fill the gap between forked-daapd's JSON API and homebridge. Right now it's features are only a few but I intend to increase them if there's a need. I use it mainly to control the output devices or to fire up some internet radio stations. Recently I added my wife's playlist so that she can use a Siri shortcut "Play music" to playback her favourite tracks and output them to whatever room she needs it.

I really would like to hear your opinions on that project!
