How do I use notfications
-
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 callwhere ??? is optional parms, (don’t supply it if not used)
-
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
-
@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.
-
@sdetweil so then should I remove my notification code and any reference I’ve made?
-
@alyx i don’t know.
-
@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
-
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?
-
@alyx are u an english speaker? if not translate the file to your language
-
@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
-
@alyx hello-lucy never worked for me… poor voice recognition, have to repeat myself 4 or 5 times…
-
@sdetweil Ah damn, what would you recommend then? I need the interface to be voice driven
-
@alyx as I said before, then only one I KNOW works is GoogleAssistant, BUT you ALSO have to do extra work to make YOUR command choice work. but there is little documentation on that, you have to discover it…
so its a lot MORE difficult than what u are already working on.
-
@sdetweil Right so i’m not left with much choice then, is magic mirror left in the past then with the lack of support/ documentation?
-
@alyx no… magic mirror is the runtime the modules plug into …
I am here providing support, voluntary… but module support is up to the author.
the voice_command thing is 3 years old.there are 100’s of modules… i don’t even TRY to learn them… but I look for install and config problems, and new users.
but in many cases you the user, have to do extraordinary things to make some of these older modules work. BUT u need skills to do it
we are a shared community… some users jump in to help on specific modules, or types of modules. .
but still voluntary… some authors take the summer off, and work on modules in the winter… -
@sdetweil Understandable Sam, the support is of course appreciated as I mentioned before. My self studies can only take me so far in a certain amount of time is all.
I’ll take your advise with google assistant for now and se if I can find some documentation regarding implementing other modules. I saw some PM2 ones working with Alexa in videos so that my plan after.
-
@alyx ok, alexa here is a pain in the rear…
for GA, look at the recipes folder
-
@sdetweil ah ok will do then haha cheers
