MMM-MirrorMirrorOnTheWall - Alexa voice control to hide/show modules and display text/images

Gunwoody

Hi Savage, that’s what i figured. I need to figure out a way to test connectivity between all the different elements.

Do you know where the wake word is set?

@Gunwoody there too many moving parts I think to see it all in one spot. But could be wrong lol
And where wake word runs depends on which program/version of alexa-sdk you’re using. Like I use alexa-avs-sample-app so mine runs in its own terminal. But that’s soon to change. Gonna run Alexapi so it runs right off of boot instead. That’s my project for tonight lol

Gunwoody

I’m using the same. You’ll have to let me know how it goes with AlexaPi - might be an easier route to take :)

savage_gr1nd

@Gunwoody will do :)

zman3

holy crap I finally got the skill part working. took me doing the whole install npm and everything and uploading the zip all from windows instead of the raspberry. weird

zman3

of course now i have the problem of it not doing anything with the mirror :/

Gunwoody

Exactly the same here

savage_gr1nd

@Gunwoody @zman3 while you were running npm install on the skills dependencies you didn’t sudo npm install right? That blocks amazons access.

zman3

Nope just regular pi usr

Hmm. Add MMM-mirrormirror I to MagicMirror config.js? And also have it installed in the magicmirror/modules folder?
