issue with installing MMM-awesome-alexa
-
@j.e.f.f i tried the audit fix, and it told me to run npm install again to fix them, then i just get the big error message again, running me in a complete circle :/

@jmartin1009 seems like the wrong version of c++, where the errors are because the wrong headers are being used (less likely) or the compiler doesn’t support the features… (more likely)
-
@sdetweil is there anything i can do? Or does that mean that i wont be able to use the MMM-awesome-alexa module altogether? I want Alexa integration and voice control and i had decided to use it because i read good things on here about it but if i have to use another due to it just flat out not working with the Pi or something then I would be open to suggestions for other ones to use. But if possible, it would be preferred to use awesome-alexa as it sounds like a good module. Thanks in advance! You’re always very helpful and i really appreciate it!
-
@jmartin1009 i don’t know, but am trying to recreate your experience
-
@sdetweil okay! Let me know if anything happens to yours or if you figure anything out, or I mean even if you find out it doesn’t work haha thanks!
-
@jmartin1009 still having problems building snowboy… have a trip out of town til tomorrow night… will have to get back to it then
-
I was just about to go home and try installing this module. Glad I looked here first! Not sure I’ll bother now…

@sdetweil that’s perfectly fine, thanks for you help! Do you have any suggestions for other good voice control ones to try that are either similar to this one or have better capabilities? I saw mirrormirroronthewall but that one sounds really hard to use and I’m not sure I need that much. Would be open to using Google Assistant. Is there any I can use to control music? I have an iPhone and use Apple music and have it on my Pi with Shairport-sync, so if there is one that can control music that would be absolute perfection!! If not, I’m open to other suggestions as this one doesn’t seem to want to work. Thanks!

@sonicgoose you might have fine luck with it, but mine fails over and over during the install and @sdetweil seems to be having the same issue. I would say give it a try and if it works, awesome. If it doesn’t, maybe take a look at some other voice control modules. If anyone finds a fix I will be sure to tag you if you also aren’t able to get it to work, if you try it that is. Good luck! Let me know if yours works!
