You’re welcome.

@strawberry-3.141 thanks so much for replying. i’ve been tackling it for a while, and yes i had read that documentation file several times but i’m such a noob that i didn’t even know what file to put that code into. you’re correct that what’s easy for some is difficult for me.

in any case, i’ve got your code implemented and after some trial and error, it’s somewhat functional. i’m able to successfully go back and forth between 2 modes that i’ve set, one of which is the “how do” mode. now, when i say “i look” it’s recognized by the mirror but it doesn’t seem to be executing any code. i’m taking this in baby steps as i learn how to make changes so i’m trying just to simply hide the compliments module. i have the following code which i think should hide the module but it doesn’t hide.

notificationReceived: function (notification, payload, sender) {
    // 1. register module
    if(notification === "ALL_MODULES_STARTED"){
        this.sendNotification("REGISTER_VOICE_MODULE", {
            mode: "HOW DO",
            sentences: [
                "I LOOK"
            ]
        });
    }

    // 2. react on command
    if(notification === "VOICE_HOW DO" && sender.name === "MMM-voice"){
        if(/(LOOK)/g.test(payload)){
            this.hide(1000);
            this.updateDom(300);
            // unhide the module,
            // set a 10 sec timeout
            // hide your module
        }
    }
}

i’m sorry for needing this spoon-fed to me, i have been trying, but i’m stuck on this.

@dogfeet try to set some logs, to see if you get the desired data or not,

notificationReceived: function (notification, payload, sender) {
    console.log(notification, payload)

then see if you get notification === "VOICE_HOW DO" and the payload contains look

@strawberry-3.141 thanks. i put the log command in like so…

notificationReceived: function (notification, payload, sender) {
    // 1. register module
    console.log(notification, payload);
    if(notification === "ALL_MODULES_STARTED"){
        this.sendNotification("REGISTER_VOICE_MODULE", {
            mode: "HOW DO",
            sentences: [
                "I LOOK"
            ]
        });
    }

    // 2. react on command
    if(notification === "VOICE_HOW DO" && sender.name === "MMM-voice"){
        if(/(LOOK)/g.test(payload)){
            this.hide(1000);
            this.updateDom(300);
            // unhide the module,
            // set a 10 sec timeout
            // hide your module
        }
    }
}

so i ran this with npm start dev and found this at the bottom of the console tab…

it looks like it’s recognizing the command belongs to the compliments module, but the text isn’t exactly as you described. is this correct?

@Mykle1 youre awesome :*

@dogfeet i don’t know why it is FALL instead of VOICE in your case?

this is the code https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-voice/blob/master/MMM-voice.js#L203-L217

the important parts are if (notification === 'VOICE') and this.sendNotification(${notification}_${payload.mode}, payload.sentence);

how can notification be voice and a few lines later it is fall? did you modify any files?

dogfeet

@strawberry-3.141 yes i did modify mmm-voice.js to suit my needs. to explain, i have a total of 5 commands. “fall” is the first mode and is native to the voice module, under which i have 2 commands, “asleep” and “wake up”. so i say “hey mirror” (my listen command), then “fall asleep” and it cuts out the monitor, then since it’s already in “fall” mode i just say “wake up” and it turns the display back on. the final commands are for the compliments module and they are “how do” (the mode) and “i look” which is where i’m having problems. fall asleep and wake up are working perfectly.
so yes, i modified the lines that you highlighted such that the 2 places where it used to say ‘VOICE’ it now says ‘FALL’.
should i not have done that? it seems to work. i had to make other minor changes of course to keep it working.

strawberry 3.141

@dogfeet if you changed that, then you also have to apply your renamin here

if(notification === "FALL_HOW DO" && sender.name === "MMM-voice"){
        if(/(LOOK)/g.test(payload)){
            this.hide(1000);
            this.updateDom(300);
            // unhide the module,
            // set a 10 sec timeout
            // hide your module
        }
    }

@strawberry-3.141 i feel so stupid :facepalm:

So I must say the MMM-voice module (also with Mykle’s Hello-Lucy enhancements) works perfectly on my mirror… when I don’t have my Mycroft AI running at start as well. It’s an Error: resource busy/unavailable referring to the Microphone. When I stop Mycroft/restart mirror it works perfectly, but then Mycroft gets the same error. Any suggestions?

I am thinking about building a MagicMirror skill for Mycroft, but Mycroft is Python not Java, and not a module. Would it be possible to send the same commands as Hello-Lucy (i.e. ‘HIDE_CLOCK’ for example) only use Websocket-client for Mycroft and send commands to the MagicMirror via socket.io?

If so, what would handle the socketmessage? Would it be communicated to the right module/s. Would I also need to create a fork of the MMM-voice module with code to handle the socketmessages from Mycroft?

Any guidance would be much appreciated!

Sorry, I should have also said my mirror is running on a RPi 3b running Debian Jessie on a 16gb sd.
