Complete List of Roon Extensions [Available]

[Edward12 (Banned: Toxic behavior)]

Is there a complete and comprehensive list of ALL the Roon Extensions?

[StevenB]

Not to my knowledge. I check https://github.com/search?p=1&q=roon-extensions&type=Repositories from time to time, just because I imagine that any developer who writes roon extensions will post them there.

I’m curious to find out if there are any more!

[Edward12 (Banned: Toxic behavior)]

If this is something Roon supports, it would make sense for them to at least create a sticky with a list of Extensions. Not mandatory but more like common courtesy.

To go a step above, why not have them listed ‘In Roon’ so users can just enable them ie install them from Roon.

Don’t treat the Extensions like a Step-Child.

I agree it would be useful to have some list of extensions inactive development.

If nothing more it might stop a duplicate of effort by people seeking to make an extension. I mean, there are so many reasons why Roon needs to get on the ball and take care of this…

I started a community project to simplify extension distribution. The Extension Repository doesn’t include all that is available but I try to get as many as possible in.

There are two primary methods for extension distribution, the first is source level distribution via npm/GitHub, the second is “package” distribution via DockerHub. The Extension Manager currently only supports the first method but I am working on an update to also support Docker containers, allowing more extensions to be included.

I might repurpose the Repository page of the Wiki, to list all existing extensions and provide at least a link if it is not directly supported by the manager. Would like to hear if this is considered useful. Alternative location would be the Roon Knowledge Base…

@Edward12

Is there a complete and comprehensive list of ALL the Roon Extensions?

I created one!

Extension Repository · TheAppgineer/roon-extension-manager Wiki · GitHub

I think that it is pretty complete, but if one is missing and should be added, just let me know.

This is helpful, thanks Jan!

I updated the extension list as there have been some new ones recently.

A new extension for Surface Dial :

Microsoft Surface Dial Integration PLEASE!

This statement does not match my experience in any way. I will do more tests and report …

Now it is available, see here

rooDial a Wireless Volume Knob for Roon with Microsoft Surface Dial

In this thread I would like to introduce and support rooDial, a solution to use the Microsoft Surface Dial as a wireless volume control for Roon. I would be happy to answer here all questions from interested parties and all rooDial users. rooDial is my first Roon Extension and part of the rooExtend platform (https://rooExtend.com) that I will gradually expand with further Roon extensions. The aim of rooExtend is to make useful Roon extensions easily accessible to Roon users without in-depth IT…

The extension list has been updated again, quite a few new ones since the previous update:

• Apple TV
• Entrypoints
• Home Assistant
• Queue Bot
• rooDial
• TAG McLaren Audio Source Control
  
  

There are now 26 extensions in the Extension Repository and a total of 34 extensions listed!

Hi,

If you want to you can add this one to your list, it was created around a year or so ago as a fork from another extension.

[DrCWO (C.W. Oehlrich)]

@Jan_Koudijs

The extension list has been updated again,

Hi Jan,

rooUPnP: Finally a Roon Extension for UPnP Streamers - Audio Products - Roon Labs Community

[Jan_Koudijs]

Included in list.

[Hugo_Sharp (Hugo)]

Stupid question but if i run my core on a small green computer how do i go about installing extensions?

[DrCWO (C.W. Oehlrich)]

Hi @Hugo_Sharp

• You can either ask @Jan_Koudijs how to install The Extension manager.
• You can get a Raspberry Pi and use my rooExtend SD-card image
• Or get my rooExtend-Box if you like to have a Plug-And-Play solution.
