MMM-GoogleAssistant and LED Lights

A Former User

I have write a special recipe for you, with the latested version of MMM-GoogleAssistant :)

the recipe name is with-status.js (locating: with the latest version of GA in recipes directory)

How it’s works ?
GA will send the status (stand-by, listen, …) to your wanted file


/**  with-status.js **/
/**  send the status of assistant to a python script **/
/** For LED Strip for example **/
/**     @bugsounet       **/

var recipe = {
  commands: {
    "Status": {
      shellExec: {
        exec: (param) => {
            return "python /home/pi/myscript.py " + param.status.actual
        }
      }
    }
  },
  plugins: {
    onStatus: "Status"
  },
}

exports.recipe = recipe

I have defined in the with-status.js sample
to run this command : python /home/pi/myscript.py Status_of_GA

Status_of_GA can be :
- listen
- standby
- confirmation
- reply
- error
- hook
You can change the name and the path of the script (I don’t force it) and can be and bash script or other
How load this recipe ?

in GA configuration, you have an recipe field

just add it :)

samples :

recipes: [ "with-status.js" ],
recipes: [ "with-status.js", "with-MMM-TelegramBot.js" ], for some other recipe needed

@Bugsounet
Hi guys, i’m new to python and i’m not sure how I would create a script that would turn on different GPIO pins depending on the GA staus. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be awesome!

@CallanPiper i have the same request.

see the top of this topic. you will have to construct some of it

@sdetweil yes i am using the recipe “with-status.js” but my question is how to use the status of GA in my python script or use different scripts on different status whichever is possible.

@Sihtodstel i dont know. as i said u will have to construct some of this.
