@Gunwoody you should definitely include node_modules, but my zip file is 5.1MB, I think the limit is 50MB. it’s not an error, you can ignore it.
-
@joanaz Hi - thanks for the super quick reply :). Yes, my zip is also 5.1mb. I’ve tried several times but still get the same message.
“The deployment package of your Lambda function “xxxxxxxxxxx” is too large to enable inline code editing. However, you can still invoke your function right now.”
You say i can ignore it - but how do i know if the zip has uploaded ok?
-
@Gunwoody it says you can invoke your function right now. if it’s not ok, it would give you a red error message. Anyways, you can click on the test button, see whether your function works. but before that, you need to setup a test case
-
@joanaz Thanks again. I think it’s uploaded ok - not that it’s helped me get it working. I can get just about any other module running on MagicMirror but not this one. I think it’s just a case of i’m not sure what folders should be where. When i run it with the module in the config file i just get a white screen and can’t ‘alt’ out of it - Pi seems to crash. I think i’ll just have to give up as i’ve been trying for 3 days to get this running :(

@bartalluyn is your code on Github? I’m quite interested in your Alexa Java client, it’d be great if it was a Mirror Module, so Alexa and Mirror can communicate directly without going through AWS IoT.
-
@Gunwoody sorry to hear that. This is quite advanced as you have to setup AWS IoT, Lambda and Alexa skill, so it does need you to have some experiences with programming and using AWS services. I’m thinking about how to simplify this and get it to work with multiple users, but thanks for trying.

I do not get why this is not working the src.zip has a layout of folders and in the root of zip I have index.js MirrorMirror.js and package.json
but i still get

which looks like what it’s not finding index.js ?

@joanaz I haven’t really had much of an issue with Lambda, IOT etc. It’s more the local install on the pi. I think because your instructions jump from area to area it’s easy to miss or misintrepet a step. I might just do a full clean install and start from scratch. It’s just a shame because MagicMirror itself runs perfectly with any module i try. It’s just your that is determined to thwart me lol :)
-
@zman3 you don’t have certs and node_modules?
-
@Gunwoody i’ve never seen another mirror module which works with a Alexa skill
