How do I use notfications

Alyx

Hi Guys,

I’m new to this and have no clue how to use js and notifications.

I was wondering if someone can help me with setting up some modules to talk to each other. I want to use voice commands to activate a camera module to begin.

I’m using MMM_Voice_Commands and want to use MMM_SelfieShoot. If someone can help on how to use these that would be great and then I can atleast replicate it for other modules.

@alyx said in How do I use notfications:

self.sendNotification(“SHOW_ALERT”, {type: “notification”, title: “Voice Commands”, message: “Deactivated”})

thats all u have to do

sendNotification(“string”, optional_parameters needed by receiver of message

this is a broadcast… all modules get it…

so when u figure out what the command is then do that

self.sendNotification(“SELFIE_SHOOT”, ???)
make sure ‘self’ is set when u make the call

where ??? is optional parms, (don’t supply it if not used)

Alyx

@sdetweil

Ok so for selfie shoot all I need to do is to input in my MM conf, self.sendNotification(“SELFIE_SHOOT”, “selfie”) ‘selfie’ is the voice command i wish to call. And I put this where i call the selfie_shoot module or the voice commands module?

Sorry I’ll need some hand holding with the request haha

sdetweil

@alyx said in How do I use notfications:

self.sendNotification(“SELFIE_SHOOT”,

sorry, after looking at the module, i don’t understand what its looking for in its config…

supposedly you would have to write no code.

Alyx

@sdetweil so then should I remove my notification code and any reference I’ve made?

sdetweil

@alyx i don’t know.

Alyx

@sdetweil I did there with no results, how would you usually set this up? I’ve tried following the documentation but its hard for myself to understand.

https://github.com/mykle1/Hello-Lucy/blob/master/How to add modules to Hello-Lucy

The dev of the custom config I use said to follow this but it doesnt make sense to me

Alyx

I was playing around with the default compliments module and apparently it is supposed to work out of the box with the voice_commands config I have although that doesnt seem to be the case… Am I doing something wrong form the start?

sdetweil

@alyx are u an english speaker? if not translate the file to your language

Alyx

@sdetweil yep I am, I’m thinking of moving to another module. I’m thinking Hello Lucy, do you have any recommendations? As long as I can make it communicate with a module I dont care haha

UNSOLVED How do I use notfications
