@sispheor when trying to install Kalliope on a freshly installed system, I have 2 errors

then a little excitement, add the starter configuration to rpi_install_kalliope.sh, and let the user during the installation choose which language he wants to install

Hi,

I had this one time.
Can you try to install the lib manually?

sudo pip install SpeechRecognition

Then run the install again from the kalliope folder (in /home/pi)

sudo python setup.py

It’s weird, sometime pip doesn’t find this lib.

You should not have the pip installation in that script without:

checking if it is already installed
make sure what python version your using. pip2 or pip3?
allow user to cancel that installation, if they know they already have it

Most of the time, if you have both Py2 and Py3 installed, pip would apply to Py2 and pip3 to Py3.

@sispheor SpeechRecognition was successfully installed, but sudo python setup.py has another error

pi@MagicMirror:~/kalliope $ sudo python setup.py
usage: setup.py [global_opts] cmd1 [cmd1_opts] [cmd2 [cmd2_opts] ...]
   or: setup.py --help [cmd1 cmd2 ...]
   or: setup.py --help-commands
   or: setup.py cmd --help

error: no commands supplied

@E3V3A
Actually, we consider here that the user start the installation from a fresh install raspbian.
So he is using Python 2 and pip2.

sispheor

@NoNameRo sorry, forgot one word

sudo python setup.py install

sispheor

@E3V3A but yes you are right, a good script should be idempotent.
I’ll enhance it.

Does MMM-kalliope allow or have any Google Assistant or Alexa functionality?
If, yes, how to install it. I didn’t see anything in the neuron list…

Although Kalliope look very nice and surely better documented now, it will be hard to sell without these features. People wanna talk to AI, not only ask to turn your lights on or off, which you can do by your self. Perhaps a phone plugin so you can call it up and talk?

In addition it is a huge obstacle that you have to make plugins (or neurons or synapses or whatever you call it) for just about everything you want to talk to Kalliope about. This learning should be automated by ML, and integrated to the productivity tools you already have, including future Alexa and GA compatibility.

sispheor

Kalliope is not an IA but a framework to make an assistant. Kalliope is like Ansible actually by design.
From neuron you can cover almost all features provided by current assistant like Google or Alexa.

There is a Android app to control kalliope from your phone and a “Tasker” neuron to control your phone from kalliope.

Users have to make their brain in the language they want by using neuron. We provide “starter kit” to give a basic config and new user to understand the concept.

I Understand that is not what you are looking for. You should give a try to another app.

@sispheor Cool! Thanks a lot for clarifying.
