@j-e-f-f that would be sweet. I just found this page for DC Metro APIs: https://developer.wmata.com/

maybe it will help.

@j-e-f-f is there any plan to expand this to other major cities? Could this be used for DC metro times? Perhaps wmata.com has an api. I’m not sure. I just think this would be helpful. Thoughts?

@zdenek PM me your email address and I’ll send the python scripts to you.

This is the first step separate from MM. Then install the MMM-AlexaPi module from https://github.com/dgonano/MMM-AlexaPi after you get the MM up and running.

My recommendation is that you try this on a fresh SD card, installing AlexaPi first. Get it running the way you want it, then install MM.

DO NOT install any modules that mess with any audio functions. I had to start the whole project over when I tried to install voice control and couldn’t get Alexa to work again.

If you have trouble getting AlexaPi working, get on the gitter chat and ask the devs.

I hope this helps.

@j.e.f.f - loving the module. However, I’m trying to add a single trip with multiple stops and multiple methods of transportation. Here’s the situation:

I live in MD; I want to drive from my home to the nearest DC metro station, get on the metro to my work in downtown DC.

This uses driving first, then subway. The module sets a global ‘origin’ with multiple potential destinations. Essentially, how I see it, I need to change origins for each stop, thus, creating multiple module instances.

Is there a way to create multiple stops with differing origins?

@michael_klatt that’s all good and well, but do you have a script to auto launch at startup that loafs all three of those individual scripts? Nope. That’s what AlaexaPi does. It just loads automatically.

@davidrq7 go to gitter.im/AlexaPi and ask there. This is where the guys that made it hang out.

i had errors installing the current version 1.5, so I reverted back to v1.4 which is much more stable. this is the version that I am currently running flawlessly.

cd /opt/AlexaPi
sudo git checkout v1.4

I hope this helps

@davidrq7 check with the guys here: gitter.im/AlexaPi

Since I updated to version 2.1.1 and added an anytime compliment, once it scrolls through the morning or afternoon, etc. compliments and lands on the anytime compliment, it simply holds there. I have to restart the webpage with CTRL+Q to get it to reset and then it happens again.

Any fix for this or has anyone else experienced it?
