Looking for ways to extend Indigo to support additional hardware or new functionality? Want to integrate your home automation with other software (iTunes, iCal, Security Spy, etc.)? Need to see some example Indigo AppleScripts to help you get started?

Below are some great user contributions for integrating Indigo home automation with different devices and software. Additionally, some of these are excellent tutorials-by-example, so fire up your Script Editor application (inside your Applications/AppleScript/ folder) or other editor and see how they work. If you write a script, application, or plug-in that might be useful for others, then please submit it.

	iTunes Play Album of Current Track
	Indigo 2.x-4.x	download

Overview

I usually listen to my main library in shuffle mode, but quite often a track comes on and I say "I'd like to hear this album in its entirety, in correct track order. With this script I can issue an X-10 command that causes iTunes to create and play a new, non-shuffled, non-repeating playlist consisting of the album of the current track, sorted by track order. The script will announce "Now playing [album] by [artist]". When iTunes is stopped, either by user action or by the playlist finishing, iTunes will delete the playlist and resume play in the main library at the next song by a different artist.

Installation

Create a Trigger Action in Indigo to launch this script.

Usage

The script uses the Leopard-only voice "Alex". If you're using an older OS you'll need to change the value of the property "TheVoice". The script has been tested with Indigo 1.8.3.
