    • RE: Peek-a-boo...

      @darrene hey no worries at all on the typo. I can’t thank you enough for helping out and providing the comprehensive step-by-step guide in plain english to noobs like me. I don’t know how I would have got the voice module working without your help so thanks again!

    • RE: Wunderlist - your todos on the mirror

      @SexyTrogg damn…ok i assume you double checked your access token and client ID in the config match up perfectly with what you received from Wunderlist? Other than that I can’t think of any other reason why it wouldn’t show the lists.

      @SexyTrogg you have a typo on “accessToken:” in the config file.

      @Pieps perfect that fixed the issue. Now the notifications come in with the right name. Thanks again for the quick solution!

    • RE: VoiceControl module

      @alexyak great work on creating this module! This is the only voice module that works for me on MM2.

      I was wondering if its possible to customize the sensitivity settings? On the snowboy website when training voice models it gives you this option when testing so wasn’t sure if that feature could also be added into the module itself. Right now with the default settings I need to speak very close to the mic for it to trigger the wake word.

    • RE: Peek-a-boo...

      @strawberry-3.141 Thank you for the tip! Now it makes perfect sense.

      It does still work with the multiple else if statements but for the sake of cleaner code I like the idea of using the or condition.

      @carteblanche said in Peek-a-boo...:

      @darrene thank you for sharing your calendar.js file because that is where I found where the issue was…it was the name for the function notificationReceived: – needed to have a lower case “n”.

      Now it works perfectly!! And as you predicted I experienced a massive grin.

      update:
      I’ve been testing this out with other modules and it works like a charm. I also discovered (after trial and error) that its possible to combine the hide/show with the hide all/show all command simply by revising the if statement on the notificationReceived function with an “or” condition specifying both commands . See below is an example of the revised code:

      notificationReceived: function(notification, payload, sender) {
      if (notification === “HIDE_CALENDAR” || “HIDE_ALL”) {
      this.hide();
      } else if (notification === “SHOW_CALENDAR” || “SHOW_ALL”) {
      this.show();
      }
      },

      update: while this worked for a short period, upon further testing this code seems to cause some issues with HIDE_ALL auto suspending all modules on launch. So the or condition if statement doesn’t appear to be a viable solution, the only way to include hide/show all is the way you have the code now @darrene with the multiple else if statements.

      @Pieps Thanks for making a quick fix! Once github is back online I will definitely do the pull and let you know the result.

    • RE: Amazon Echo/Alexa

      @darrene I saw the module from whyjustin but didn’t want to try it because it required downgrading electron.

    • RE: Amazon Echo/Alexa

      @d3r Yes you are correct.

      I have tried out both wake word engines with the Alexa pi sample app and for me the sensory engine performed much better in picking up the wake word. For some reason with snowboy (kitt.ai) I always seem to have to be very close to the mic for it to be picked up.

    • RE: Peek-a-boo...

      @darrene I went through all the steps and I can see in the console that the modules are receiving the notification broadcast as expected but for whatever reason the Calendar isn’t actually responding (i.e. HIDE_CALENDAR doesn’t make the calendar go away).

      Any ideas? I’m wondering if it has to do with where I put the code into calendar.js?

    • RE: Amazon Echo/Alexa

      I’m not a programmer so I have yet to figure out how to make a module, but I was able to follow the instructions from Amazon to get AVS/Alexa running on my rpi3 while MM2 is also running. It’s kinda cool cause Alexa just runs in the background and takes commands with the wake word “Alexa”.

      The only feature I wish it had is visual feedback on the mirror. I also wish the Alexa sample app could autorun anytime I have the mirror loaded.

      @darrene as @Baltibu suggested, it would be awesome if you could share the code you used to get this module to work. I am still trying to get any of the voice modules to work for mm2 on my mirror.

    • RE: MMM-Voice-Control

      @dr4ke616 I haven’t used annyang before and not familiar with how it works vs other options, but I have used Google Speech API (+ snowboy hotword detection) using a different smart-mirror project…

      if this module is using Google Speech API, I would think we would need to input our own API keys but I didn’t see that in the config.

    • RE: Wunderlist - your todos on the mirror

      @SexyTrogg You don’t need any of the tasks to be in the Inbox folder. You just need to create a new custom list of your todos separate from the auto generated folders that Wunderlist creates and call that list name out in the module config file.

      See a screenshot of my lists here…I can have either Work or Family show up on my mirror if I choose those names in the config file. But be careful it is case sensitive.

    • RE: Wunderlist - your todos on the mirror

      This module is working perfectly for me. As others mentioned it doesn’t work for the filters like Today, Week, etc. you can only assign it to specific lists that you create like “Work” for example.
