Creating Custom Voice Commands for Hello-Lucy...?
-
@Doctor0ctoroc on module startup
-
@Doctor0ctoroc module sends a message to node_helper “START”
and then u can read the code in node_helper -
@sdetweil Ah, that’s fantastic. That would explain why when I changed “Hello Lucy” to “Hey Jarvis” in the Hello-Lucy.js and config file, it was added to the .dic and .lm file…I thought it was included in there from the get go (assuming the code was written to include an alternative, ‘familiar’ AI name that users might want) but all this time, it was my change of the code that put it in there - and it totally works when I say “Hey Jarvis” instead of “Hello Lucy”!
So there’s no need to even edit the .lm or .dic files directly then?
-
@Doctor0ctoroc no, they are generated each time the module starts

I think, for your purposes, you can simply do this, although I have not tested it:
-
In sentences.js file add your command(s). “CHEER ME UP” and “THANKS I FEEL BETTER” (MUST ALL BE CAPS)./
-
In checkCommands.json Sample -->
["SHOW","COMMAND","","","true","MMM-ModuleName",""], ["HIDE","COMMAND","","","false","MMM-ModuleName",""],
Changed to
["CHEER","ME","UP","","true","compliments",""], ["THANKS","I","FEEL","BETTER","false","compliments",""],
This should now make sense to you. I used the hide/show pairs mostly because I found the success rate higher when using shorter commands. I’ve “learned” how to talk to Lucy so my success rate is pretty darn good. I know others that have struggled for success.
Using what @sdetweil has told you and this simple format above, you should be on your way.

Ok, I just tested this and it works. You may find some commands work better than others. You’ll have to do some experimenting.

You would only need to change it in the config entry

Ah, good to know so I’m not being redundant. And thanks for the direction on the coding, that helps a lot! Do I need to add the extra words to the words.json file as well?

No sir. Re-read the instructions in my post above

@Mykle1 Okay, got it to work! Although it seems when I say “cheer me up” it will 25% of the time pull up the help menu haha. Is there a function that pulls up help if it can’t ‘understand’ the input? I can’t imagine it’s reading my voice command as “show help”!
