working on light colour control - one issue is controlling multiple lights. As you control one device at a time, i'm not sure of the user experience you'll get if you have to do this one light at a time!
any thoughts anyone?

@swifty: sorry for late reply.
My nginx reverse proxy has a self-signed webserver certificate.
Amazon AWS is talking to my proxy and forwards the packages to domoticz. Thats all.
In aws i have no own (client) certificates. AWS accepts in dev mode self signed certs.
@Madgeni, i will send you a new version of the manual

Thanks Borcon - it's been uploaded.
Also, i've added the ability to set colours (i've only tested it at the lambda, not via Alexa). I had to create the ability in the node module for Domoticz, I convert it to hex, so took a little while.
Still not convinced that turning each Hue on (or any RGBW) one by one is a great experience!

@madgeni is that like push messages?
and you need use cases specific for alexa-domo?

My use case for Alexa push notifications: when someone enters the garage this is detected by a PIR sensor. This triggers Alexa to say 'We have a guest' (or whatever you want)
I have this working. I have modified the Alexa AVS sample app to send a pre-recorded MP3 file to the Alexa server. This triggers a custom skill which gets the text that needs to be speech synthesized from Domoticz.
The delay between PIR detection and the moment Alexa starts talking is a few seconds. Acceptable.

@lokonli that's the kind off things I had in mind.
I had a homey, and let domoticz speak through it.
Doorbell actions, specific confirmations, and PIR's but only after time checking etc.
So a way to let Domoticz to tell Alexa what to say, would be perfect for me.
The nicest way is to let it happen without "man in the middle" so domoticz >> the skill by madgeni >> alexa.
How did you make this function, is there a manual ???

I'd considered another skill just for push notifications - using mqtt to the AWS iot - but the ideal is for it to be built into the Smart Home Skill Api Amazon provide. It might still be a couple of months away, but at least we know it's now on the horizon.
As people have said, obvious things are about state changes to devices, based on criteria.
As soon as I get any info, i'll pass it on

Hi
I'm trying to update to the latest version but keep getting this error:
Code: Select all
{
"errorMessage": "Cannot find module 'hsl-to-rgb-for-reals'",
"errorType": "Error",
"stackTrace": [
"Module.require (module.js:353:17)",
"require (internal/module.js:12:17)",

]
}
What am I doing wrong?

Hi markk - you'll need to pull the node_modules folder also - i've included a couple of libraries to convert hue to hex

hi Madgeni
I downloaded the whole zip from github into a separate folder, changed the config.json and then zipped all 4 new files, including the node_modules folder together !

weird - and that module is in the node_modules folder?

here's the folder. The zip contains the three downloaded today plus the amended conf.json

I don't see how to get a message to alexa with this skill. Alexa seems to be the trigger in the jbreed story and I am looking for a way to let ( in my case) domoticz be the trigger. please correct me if I am wrong
When I reed back my earlier post, it says "without man in the middle" I do not see the madgeni skill as a "man in the middle" but as a necessary and good step from domoticz to alexa.
I meant without an
extra man in the middle. just to set things straight.

I've added a zipped file which has my current files (the same as on github) to github - this is the one i'm using - try that?
