MMM-Pages and Alexa
-
OK
is the code correct in terms of reasoning
Because I cannot switch pages in the Alexa app -
@radioman I don’t know. not my module. did the notification get sent? use debug to see
radar works
are u using the right command?
do u need two notifications? one for on and one for off?
-
Unfortunately, I’m not the kind of programmer that debugging is concerned
But switching radar is possible in the Alexa app and by voice -
@radioman open the console and watch.
look at the console where u start mm,
npm start or pm2 logs --lines=???
??? is a number 15 defaultgotta learn
-
I also use the MMM remote control module.
The Pages tab is empty on the smartphone or in the browser -
@radioman sorry, don’t use pages
-
I will try tommorow, now its time for me to go to bed

@radioman Hi. You made one mistake in the configuration for your page devices. You set OnOff to true. If it’s set to true you can send different notifications for on and off. So you have to set it to false for this two devices. Your config looks then like this:
{ module: 'MMM-AlexaControl', position: 'bottom_left', config:{ image: false, pm2ProcessName: "mm", refresh: true, restart: true, reboot: false, monitorToggle: true, vcgencmd: 'vcgencmd', deviceName: "Spiegel", startPort: 12000, notifications: [ { name: 'Radar', port: 11101, OnOff: true, notification: [["SHOW_RADAR", null],["HIDE_RADAR", null]] }, { name: 'Seite eins', port: 11102, OnOff: false, notification: ["PAGE_CHANGED", 0] }, { name: 'Seite zwei', port: 11103, OnOff: false, notification: ["PAGE_CHANGED", 1] } ] } },
Instead of this you could also use the pages option and set it to the number of pages you have. You can then change the names in the Alexa app.

@JoChef2 so, if OnOff is true, then you expect an array of notifications? if false, only one notification, right?
you could add a check for array and output a message to help the user…
and switch to false… -
@sdetweil Yes you are right. That’s a good idea. I will do it in the next week.
