@hnperkins I see.
Yeah, I got awesome-alexa working after a load of PITA useless docs. So I know how to make it work, but then it would suddenly stop responding without any signs at all. No logs, no errors, no nothing. So I gave up…

@hnperkins said in MMM-Assistant (Dev Updates):

@E3V3A … but when i would load the other assistant module, …

What do you mean the “other assistant”?
Are you trying to run 2 different voice modules at the same time?
(You can’t do that without a crazy complicated ALSA config.)

Just to have it said.

The biggest challenge for any new (voice) user, is to correctly setup:

• the ALSA audio (if you haven’t used it before)
• the Google/Alexa developer accounts.

I’m working on a descent HowTo, but I find it very boring, so I keep putting it off… Anyway, I’ve made some changes, so please contact me if you encounter any problem, and I’ll try to walk you through.

@Mykle1 Thank you! Not sure there will be that many… But now I can focus to also add Alexa!

I have now updated to the Google Assistant and MM Voice Control module: MMM-Assistant. AFAICT it all works now. So now we can focus on improvements, but any help or testing is always appreciated.

PS. I am not original developer of this module, I just help maintaining it.

@Mykle1 I must give the cred to Tabulator, which makes it really easy to make these tables outstanding.

I’ve just pushed all new updates to the MMM-Assistant. GA and MM control now works. Please test.

I would also like to implement the Alexa service so I could always use some help for that.

Cheers,

I’m getting my logs spammed by the following SSH errors, in my PM2 logs:

ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory
Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

Any idea what module is causing this?

I do have the notification module, constantly reminding me that one of my modules has X “commits behind master branch.”

Are these related? How?

@MaxPower Sound like it would be better to file an issue with the module developer github, to fix the problem, rather than have to restart you pi.

I would like to see the default updatenotification module to allow us to control what modules to show for updates.

Currently:
I keep getting notifications for minor updates to certain modules that I do not intend to update. This is annoying, as I do not wish to disable the updatenotification module, since it is very useful for other core modules.

It would be great to have a simpler way to select what modules we either do want or do not want to see updates from. Perhaps through an additional module option, like moduleUpdateBlacklist: [MMM-myModdedModule, MMM-CryptoCurrency]?

I guess a workaround could be to remove the .git directory in the modules home directory, but then you remove all git features for that, which is just dumb.

Any ideas out there?
