MMM-GoogleAssistant Dev Questions

Hi guys,

That you can see, I think all features is now stable
Holidays is now done, so let’s coding some new features

What can I code ? I’m thinking to this:

MusicPlayer: just insert an USB key in the pi and play music
NewRadio player: actually, radio module of GA can read streaming but not many format …
what about coding a new support by adding m3u streaming and many other? (needed VLC using… and reconize many format)
Try add MagicMirror as a related device for autorize “personal result” (and correct this issue !), I think a have a lot of thinkg to add to GA for this

What do you think about my purpose ?
Do you see other purpose ?

Note: this topic is NOT make for talk about your own issues

Thanks to your help, support and donation

Hello all,

Thank you for this post.
+1 for “personal result” auhorization

After this, I don’t know if it’s possible but why not turning GA into a real cast device ? For example I would love displaying my doorbird camera on MM when someone is knocking at the door.

See you

Hi, yes, finally holidays are finished :-(, returning yo real Life.

I think the best coding need is a good camera streamer.

Something that can display an rtsp url and why not, a real cast device like mmourcia said.

I use it to display 2 cameras (doorbell and a surveillance one), and the actual module is not working fine.

Auto Start on Load MagicMirror: optional in config
Playing all file one by one
AutoDetect USB key (insert/release)
Check USB Key Files
AutoStart Music on USB Key insert
Stop Music on USB Key release
Integrate Player and visual in accord with Screen sub-module
TelegramBot commands (play/pause/volume/… and rebuild playlist)
make a new npm library
Switch DataBase (USB Key / Local Folder)
vocal control (Play/Stop/Next/Prev/volume/…)
auto Volume Control (Min volume on assistant activate / Max vol on assistant idle)
Save your prefered volume for next song (volume control via TB or vocal)

ALL Features is now coded !

I have coded the new sub-module Google Assistant Music Player

With this module, you can read files from USB Key or from Local Files

# Why USB key ?

Because it’s to simple to put it in !

# Why Local Files ?

You can do complex things
You can upload some audio file to a directory in /home/pi (with FTP / with shared Network directory in the pi)
You can mount a network “drive” from a NAS (or your own computer) to play your audio files

So, I will publish soon this new sub-module !

Prepare GA v3.1.0 sources files
Prepare the new wiki module (oh no, it’s a punish for me !)
I have to prepare GA updater library to manage it (common library updater of @bugsounet NPM check) for any update of this player

So Guys Sorry… You will have some update for prepare GA V3.1.0

@bugsounet fantastic. Great job. Looking forward to seeing it
