[MMM-AlexaOnOff] Simple Mirror Control from External Home Assistant (Alexa/Google Home/HASS.io)

@shbatm Ok so it works BUT it is only finding the last device on my list of the config.js file module entry when there are 36 others there. I tried discovery like 20 times from the website.
Should i try adding them one by one from the bottom up by commenting them out and adding them one by one …unless you got any other ideas :)

@richland007 in the log is it showing all of the ports in the range open? (e.g. 21900-21936)?

When i use

netstat -tulpn | grep electron

It only show that 1 one port 0.0.0.0:21900 Listen

Yes, IP-Adress is correct. From console everything looks like it should. Alexa is in the same network - wlan, mirror lan. I also have hue in here and the hue module on my mirror. Everything looks fine there. But actually, Alexa finds nothing.

Ich checked your command. After that, with sudo netstat -tulpnI see this:

Do I need the wemo skill or something like that?

wemo skill

You shouldn’t need a separate skill with it. It looks like everything is working from the mirror side so I’m not sure what else to try…

It would be in pm2 logs mm or ~/.pm2/logs folder. I’ll check when I get a chance why it’s not opening more than 1 port.

@shbatm I don not see anything out of the ordinary in my logs when i do pm2 logs mm definitely not 36 ports open in addition to 29100 when i go to location ~/.pm2/logs the log files are there in the directory but empty.

So I was looking at the Fauxmojs project–what this module uses to handle the “devices”–and it looks like there are some issues with Gen 2 Echos not discovering the devices–but for most, the alexa.amazon.com website was working. I’ll keep an eye on that project–but at the moment, I don’t have anything else I can do from my end.

If you want to see some more detailed logs–start the MM manually with the following:

cd ~/MagicMirror
export DEBUG=sstp-server,deviceEndpoints,discoveryService
npm start

@richland007 - I just tested my installation with 3 devices and, while it wasn’t showing all of the ports on the log line due to a bug, it was opening the ports (visible with netstat -tulpn | grep electron – see below). Just in case anyone is wondering–port 1900 is the discovery port.

@shbatm How do i read more log lines not only tailing the last 15 from pm2 logs mm ??
This works so nicely with the only one device that it is starting (turn on and turn off the whole mirror) it is awesome… i am so hurt that i am unable to have the rest of the “devices/modules” working.

If you want to have a look at my long a%$ :) config.js entry for the MMM-AlexaOnOff module here it is ;

        }]
    }
}

It is only loading the last “device” named Mirror for (an all on/off feature) on port 21900.

I tried changing the port start number to something else to no avail, i tried commenting out all but the last 2 of the devices still no luck…it only starts 1.

Edit: I spoke too early on singing it praises if you give a command ( in my case all i have is one that makes the monitor go off and than on after you ask Alexa to turn Mirror On) after 2-3 minutes everything freezes and you absolutely can not interact with the mirror completely neither from putty /ssh or vnc (ctrl/alt/del) or keyboard input only a hard power reset is the solution it has happened twice. I did try it one last time before posting this, and right after “Alexa turn Mirror On” i hit ctrl+Q to quit MM and see what the CPU values were and they were right around 70% but they went immediately down to 1% and nothing happened no more freezing of the Rpi…weird!!! I really need to get you some more detailed logs

Please help me solve this so i can turn my modules on and off
Thank you for your prompt replies and patience

@shbatm Thanks. I’m using an echo dot 3rd generation. Sadly, I have to wait. There seems to be no problems with your module / the mirror / network.

Good work!
