Sorry, can you go into a little more detail on that? How would I create that script?

I can run the command:

python3 /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GoogleAssistant/pi/assistant.py

as long as I first run:

source /env/bin/activate

It works appropriately after running those two commands. Running the top command in this post without running the bottom command results in an error.

Thanks for clarifying. Any idea on the process id changing with

ps -ef | grep assistant

??

Looking for some clarifications here. I tried Sam’s suggestion and created a GoogleAssistant.service in /etc/systemd/system. I am a little confused on the command though:

‘/home/pi/MagicMirror/modulesMMM-GoogleAssistant/python3 assistant.py’

The assistant.py file is located in /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GoogleAssistant/pi. And wouldn’t the “python3” command come first? Could someone clarify?

Then, continuing to follow this post, he suggested running:

ps -ef | grep assistant

to find the process id. However, when i try to kill that process id, is says it “No such process”. If I run the same command several times in a row, I get different process ids each time. Is it trying to run via some other pathway and retrying constantly? It wouldn’t surprise me, as I’ve tried to get this working via many methods. How can I track this down?

Thanks for your help!

Tried and failed with MMM-Alexa. Doesn’t mean I can’t try again!

I’ll have to look at it. Tried the MM-GA module after 3+ failures of Alexa modules. Just would like one of them to work!

Many thanks Sam! I’ll need to take a look at your suggestions tomorrow. I appreciate the quick (immediate!) help.

Any thoughts? The MagicMirror is running. If I stop it by hitting Alt and closing it via the menu bar, it automatically restarts.
