Can I rotate the pages (MMM-Pages) with MMM-TelegramBot or MMM-RemoteControl?

MiguelDAD

With the MMM-Pages module, is there a way to turn pages whenever you want without touching the screen?

@MiguelDAD You should be able to do it with remote control or telegram module. check the documentation of MMM-Pages. You need to send notification to it to change the page.

I have tried to follow the wiki of the modules but it has not worked for me.

{
            module: 'MMM-Remote-Control',
            // uncomment the following line to show the URL of the remote control on the mirror
            // position: 'bottom_right',
            // you can hide this module afterwards from the remote control itself
            config: {
                apiKey: 'xxx',
                customCommand: {
                    PAGE_INCREMENT: 'Pasar de página',
                    PAGE_DECREMENT: 'Retroceder de página'
                },
            }
        },
        {
            module: 'MMM-TelegramBot',
            position: 'top_center',
            config: {
                telegramAPIKey: 'xxx',
                allowedUser: ['MiguelDAD'],
                customCommands: [
                    {
                        getCommands: function (commander) {
                            commander.add({
                                command: 'PAGE_INCREMENT',
                                callback: 'PasarPagina'
                            });
                        },
                    }
                ]
            }

@MiguelDAD the telegram bot syntax looks incorrect. Check the wiki https://github.com/bugsounet/MMM-TelegramBot/wiki/Custom-Command as @Bugsounet suggested or try below (I have not tested it my self yet)

customCommands: [
{
    command: "nextpage",
    description: "Show next page"
    callback: (command, handler, self) => {
      self.sendNotification("PAGE_INCREMENT")
      handler.reply("TEXT", "Okay... next page will be shown!")
    }
  }
]

you can then use /nextpage command in telegram to change the page

@ashishtank I’m very stupid I know but I try these two options and neither works for me:

{
  module: 'MMM-TelegramBot',
  position: 'top_center',
  config: {
    telegramAPIKey : 'thisapkiokey',
	allowedUser : ['MiguelDAD'], // This is NOT the username of bot.
	customCommands: [
		{
			command: "nextpage",
			description: "Muestra la siguiente página"
			callback: (command, handler, self) => {
			  self.sendNotification("PAGE_INCREMENT")
			  handler.reply("TEXT", "Okay... mostrando la siguiente página")
			}
		  }
		]
  }
},

{
  module: 'MMM-TelegramBot',
  position: 'top_center',
  config: {
    telegramAPIKey : 'thisisokey',
	allowedUser : ['MiguelDAD'], // This is NOT the username of bot.
  }
  customCommands: [
	{
		command: "nextpage",
		description: "Muestra la siguiente página"
		callback: (command, handler, self) => {
		  self.sendNotification("PAGE_INCREMENT")
		  handler.reply("TEXT", "Okay... mostrando la siguiente página")
		}
	  }
	]
},

try this: (you have miss a coma)

{
  module: 'MMM-TelegramBot',
  position: 'top_center',
  config: {
    telegramAPIKey : 'thisapkiokey',
    allowedUser : ['MiguelDAD'], // This is NOT the username of bot.
    customCommands: [
      {
        command: "nextpage",
        description: "Muestra la siguiente página",
        callback: (command, handler, self) => {
          self.sendNotification("PAGE_INCREMENT")
          handler.reply("TEXT", "Okay... mostrando la siguiente página")
        }
      }
    ]
  }
},

result of /nexpage and /help

/help nextpage

[En réponse à Bugsounet Cédric]
/nextpage
Muestra la siguiente página
Servi par MMM-TelegramBot

Bugsounet Cédric, [13.01.21 00:04]
/nextpage

Dev MagicMirror, [13.01.21 00:04]
[En réponse à Bugsounet Cédric]
Okay... mostrando la siguiente página

and Naturaly the notification will be sended: (verified with my personal debug module)

[Notification][MMM-TelegramBot] PAGE_INCREMENT

Note: don’t forget your adminChatId field

@MiguelDAD Are you able to get it working after adding comma here as @Bugsounet have suggested ?
