How to manage Twonky Server with URL RPC GET SET commands

[phibertron]

I spent a bit of time searching throught the forums and wanted to stop having to search for things
I have already found, and wanted to put it all in one place, for my benefit, as well as others
So here is a list of things I have stumbled on that might help you to manage your server

This is a list of URL's that can be leveraged for direct access

Default
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/

Menu Webbrowse
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/setup

PC MediaBrowser
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/webbrowse

Mobile MediaBrowser 240*320
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/webbrowse-n95

Mobile MediaBrowser 320*240
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/webbrowse-e61

TwonkyMedia Settings
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/config

RSS
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rss
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rss/feed
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/mediarss

PSP
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/webbrowse-psp

Wii
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/resources/wiiPlayer.html
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/resources/wiiPlayer.swf

JSON
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/json/feed


This is a list of RPC commands that can perform actions or return information
(note: be careful with the /rpc/stop as you have no way to start it remotely with twonky)

http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/rescan
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/rebuild
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/reset
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/restart
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/stop
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/version
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/stat
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/statistics
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/log_getfile
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/log_clearfile
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/memory
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/info_status
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/info_nics
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/get_clients
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/info_clients
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/info_connected_clients
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/stream_active
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/stream_info
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/resetclients
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/mediafusion
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/mediafusionproxy
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/aggregation
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/bad_files
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/clear_cache
http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/get_webdav_link


This will get a list of all twonky server parameters
(Almost all of them are changeable, but not all for ex: version)

http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/get_all



This will let you see the value of a parameter
(for ex: http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/get_option?friendlyname)

http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/get_option?


This will let you change the value of a paramter
(for ex: http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/set_option?friendlyname=My Twonky Server)

http ://<server_ip_address>:9000/rpc/set_option?


This is the list returned from get_all I did on 6.0.31-RC6
(note: not all of these are changeable or viewable with get and set)

Now for the milltion dollar question
How do you disable RPC in Twonky Server?

To disable RPC, set enableweb= to 0 or 1
Be aware you will not be able to use web config from a client on the local lan in doing so

If you are using remote access, it would be advisable to use enableweb= set to 0 or 1
If not for the sake of just blocking attempts to log in, but to also stop wide open rpc access to twonky

[phibertron]

In the web gui I can see from the server status page, a section for "Active local streams:"
Getting this information with RPC eludes me at the moment

I tried things like:

rpc/info_active
rpc/info_local
rpc/info_active_local
rpc/info_active_streams
rpc/info_active_local_streams
rpc/info_connected_streams
rpc/info_connected_active

and so on, and so on...
but no luck

Anyone figured this one out yet?

Nice work putting everything together. The rpc call you're looking for is

rpc/stream_active

You might also want to try:

rpc/stream_info


Cheers,
Georg

[phibertron]

Nice!!!

Thanks for the kudo's and the info
i'll add it to the list now =)

[phibertron]

Found another one

This will clear the log file

/rpc/log_clearfile

[phibertron]

Added /rpc/get_clients to the list
The returned info is the same as /rpc/info_clients

[phibertron]

Added /rpc/clear_cache

From the release notes for twonky server 7
+ added a button and an rpc call to clear the disk cache, added disk cache usage info to status screen

The rpc action will display this return
"clear cache initiated! "

[phibertron]

Added /rpc/get_webdav_link

if twonkywebdav is running It will return the url and port number of the webdav server

http ://<server_ip_address>:9050

if twonkywebdav is not running It will return the following

NoWebdav
