Magic Mirror

Synopsis

Neuron to bind Kalliope with your Magic Mirror.

This neuron allow you to:

• show what Kalliope say on the screen
• control your Magic Mirror by sending notification to other active modules

Note: The MMM-kalliope module need to be installed on your Magic Mirror

mm_url	YES	string			URL of your magic mirror. E.g: http://127.0.0.1:8080/kalliope
notification	YES	string			Notification string that will be recognized by Magic Mirror modules. Use "KALLIOPE" to target the MMM-kalliope module and print the payload on the screen
payload	YES	dict			Dict of parameters to send to the Magic Mirror module

response_header	Response header from the server.	dict	{'Date': 'Sat, 19 Nov 2016 11:17:56 GMT', 'Content-Length': '192', 'Content-Type': 'text/html'}

Synapses example

Send an hard coded message that will be printed on the screen by the MMM-kalliope module

  - name: "mm-send-message"
    signals:
      - order: "send a message to my magic mirror"
    neurons:
      - magic_mirror:
          mm_url: "http://127.0.0.1:8080/kalliope"
          notification: "KALLIOPE"
          payload: "this message will be printed on the screen"

Send a notification to the alert module.

  - name: "mm-alert"
    signals:
      - order: "send an alert to magic mirror"
    neurons:
      - magic_mirror:
          mm_url: "http://127.0.0.1:8080/kalliope"
          notification: "SHOW_ALERT"
          payload:
            title: "my alert title"
            message: "the message"
            timer: 5000

From Kalliope v0.5.1, you can send each spoken message to the mirror by using the Kalliope memory.

First, create a hook in your settings.

hooks:
  on_start_speaking: "mm-say"

Create a synapse in your brain that is linked to the hook to send each message

  - name: "mm-say"
    signals: []
    neurons:
      - magic_mirror:
          mm_url: "http://127.0.0.1:8080/kalliope"
          notification: "KALLIOPE"
          payload: "{{ kalliope_memory['kalliope_last_tts_message'] }}"

Notes

Note: The MMM-kalliope module need to be installed on your Magic Mirror

Note: kalliope_last_tts_message parameter is only available since Kalliope v0.5.1.
