Hi, there is a new Alexa Module

[Stoffbeuteluwe]

@BD0G the notification in my config is for MMM-Remote-Control
to send notifications (on/off) for each module if you like…

[Stoffbeuteluwe]

@techcoderun i have posted my config…have a look

[Stoffbeuteluwe]

@techcoderun no, you don’t need to install wemo or fauxmo

[BD0G]

@Stoffbeuteluwe Some progress actually. I used your config. Had Alexa Discover Devices and she did discover 18 new devices. 10 of them were labeled Page 1-10
Then there was some like PM2 Restart 0 . Refresh, etc.

When I issue a command like Alexa Turn off page 4 . I get “Page 4 is not responding -please checks its power supply or network connection”

I get that with every page I try.

I need to define the pages , but need the exact files to modify for MMM-Pages and MMM-PageIndicator

I have MMM-RemoteControl installed , but not the version that is custom for Alexa. I bet I need to yank that module and install the custom one.

[techcoderun]

@Stoffbeuteluwe Installed both, but no luck so far.

[techcoderun]

@Stoffbeuteluwe I’ll take a look, thanks!

[Stoffbeuteluwe]

@BD0G tonight I will send you my config for the other modules…pages and page indicator

[BD0G]

Thanks! It would be helpful to understand what commands can be issued using voice to Amazon Echo devices / Alexa and what they do.

For instance if I say Alexa Turn off page one. Is that valid and what should I expect as a result?
If I say Alexa Show Notification 1 does that do anything and if so -what?

The instructions dont really go into usage examples (if you know what I mean?)

Send tonight? Where are you located? Its 9:49 PM here presently LOL!

@Stoffbeuteluwe Thanks! The modules would be extremely helpful!

           position: 'bottom_bar',

      },

@Stoffbeuteluwe Really appreciate the post! Everything appears to be working properly, but Alexa still does not detect my mirror. I have the 1st Gen Alexa, so its possible that is my issue. Thanks for all your help!

[techcoderun]

@Stoffbeuteluwe UPDATE: I purchased a new Alexa (Echo Dot) and I got everything working properly. Thanks again!

[BD0G]

@Stoffbeuteluwe Thanks for posting your config settings! Everytime I enable the AlexaControl Module My DarkSkyWeather Forecase, Lunartic, and US Holidays dont load. They just indicate “Loading”. When I pull the AlexaControl section out of the config.js they load without issue.

[Stoffbeuteluwe]

@techcoderun perfect :slightly_smiling_face:

[sdetweil]

@BD0G open the developers window, ctrl-shift-i, select the console tab, and see if there are any errors

[BD0G]

@sdetweil Still have not been able to open the Dev Console using Ctrl- Shift -i. :(

[Fozi]

@techcoderun you just bought a new Dot and the mirror was detected?

[techcoderun]

@Fozi Yes, literally just the new dot. But I had literally had the first Alexa that came out a few years ago, so it might of had some issues.
