@mithatcak interesting

@randomnoise said in PIR-Sensor - put your mirror to sleep if not used:

exec(“xdotool key space”); //simulate spacebar to disable screensaver. Needs xdotool to be installed

Hello Randomnoise;

So you did exactly what I am looking to do. Can you elaborate on how to configure this so my PIR will turn off the screen saver? I’ve already installed Xdotool, but I don’t know where to go from there.

@Aruta79

Fantastisk! (The one Norwegian word I know). :thumbsup:

MMM-GoogleTTS

Text-to-Speech module for MagicMirror with Google Cloud TTS API.

Screenshot

This module works on Background, so there is no screenshot.

Features

This module gives “voice” to MagicMirror

speech by notification order hooking other notification data to speak. (e.g: read SHOW_ALERT message) speech by MMM-TelegramBot command /tts welcomeMessage preventing over-used API quota by daily limitation.

[card:eouia/MMM-GoogleTTS]

Memo

This SDK is limited free. 4 Millions characters could be used per month without charge. I think it’s so enough for usual usage. You can limit daily usage by force with configuration to avoid charging. (But it’s your responsibility)

@Seann There he is, again with a cool module! :thumbs_up:

Would it be possible to make LEAP run on a laptop board with magic mirror (i5, 8GB of ram). A laptop board could be easily integrated in a frame.

UPDATED

2019-01-13 Voice warning alert be enabled with MMM-AssistantMk2

@nobita there is no sound integration

Updated to version [1.0.1] - now includes browser methods for formatting the DevTools console (disabled by default) and ability to echo Module Notifications and Errors from the web browser back to the Node (back-end) console and logs.

@rockcitiman I had to modify the address: line above the ipWhitelist: entry as @Sandy2503 alluded. My line became:

address: ["localhost", "0.0.0.0"],

the localhost may be redundant with the 0.0.0.0, but it works nonetheless (the interface). But … the writing of the config file is in a format that bunged up my mm so it fails to display anything.

@johans
You should locate ‘myPlayer’ directory under ‘/home/pi/MagicMirror’.
You can access ‘/home/pi/MagicMirror/myPlayer’ with ‘http://localhost:8080/myPlayer’ or just ‘/myPlayer’.

Hi,
Is it possible to execute sh script like play.sh, stop.sh ??

Found this. Can this b the reason it did not restart again?

When your app stays up for less than min_uptime (1s by default) until max_restarts (15 by default) is exceeded, it will stop restarting. So the most likely explanation here is that your app keeps crashing over and over for some reason. Whenever it stays up for longer than min_uptime, max_restarts is reset, so the default values should work just fine.

Hallo :)

I know it’s not how it’s supposed to be but I use a Pi Zero running Stretch lite. I start the Mm using „node /serveronly“ in a .sh script and launch chromium afterwards.

Typing in these commands works perfectly fine. Everything takes some time to boot, but then, it just works.

To start it after bootup, I use Pm2. It takes some time but it works. The problem is: the Pi‘s CPU is at 100 % all the time since node /serveronly runs 4 times and each needs between 15 and 20 %.

How can I fix that? Any idea?

Yes, I know about Windows 10 portability…

What I was thinking of was how to make MM portable. Yes, I figured on node. But, is there anything else I need to figure in? Is there a way to package it (MM) as an exe or msi?

Really, I feel like I’m jumping ahead of myself a little, as I have yet to get any type of voice control or interaction (Google Assistant, Alexa, Cortana, Watson, etc. Or a combination of some or all) to even work on the Windows MM. That is actually my next problem to conquer. Seems like I’ve figured out how to get any other module to work with Windows except voice. The biggest hurdle I’ve found thus far is utilizing the integrated sound, or external mic and speakers on any and every Windows PC. At this point, I have MM working within the Windows environment on every laptop and desktop and All-In-One I’ve come across. From Win 7, to 8.1 to 10. Except the sound, playback and recording, for running any type of voice control or interaction.

To be able to use one device and make changes and tweaks and test modules on, package it on a USB drive and be able to test it on any Windows device, be it a laptop, tablet, or desktop is my ultimate goal.

I am also looking at incorporating AI with the voice and a customizable Avatar into the MM. But that is taking me a while to learn. Long term goal, but in the works…

Ok, got off subject a little…

So, is there a way to install MM on a USB drive and plug it into any Windows device and run it from the USB? For instance, when I use ‘git clone…’ it automatically downloads and installs to the user directory. Is there a way to get everything I do to download and install to the USB drive? But, run (npm start) on the device the USB is plugged into?

Looks smaller than expected, are width and height set correctly in the config?

@Mykle1

Jap, its called Fritzing
:)

I did use pm2 but even with pm2 it dont work right itll start up show magic mirrors loading screen then go to raspbian desktop where i have to enter pmstart mm.sh or whatever and then itll load just fine thats also been a struggle that was never resolved that i have coped with tho however

@stephenmelody said in sakirtemel/MMM-alexa:

@cowboysdude Do you have this working? I’ve been using AlexaPi but it’s not really been that effective. It’s very slow and doesn’t always listen…

No I"m not using it but I did install mmm-awesome-alexa :)
