morning scenario (info of the day)

Hi!

I am working on a project in my room/studio

(for now i am still painting but soon i will start with the domoticz part (and i've done allready some things))

I would like when my alarm goes off in the morning a scenario starts (with tasker on my phone)

Some of the things i would like to happen is:

1) tv goes on (not the hard part)
2) an 'goodmoring thomas 'audio message
3) an audio message how the weater going to be (I like it from google --> "okay google, whats the weather like today" google:"Today its going to be...."
4) an audio message with the appointments of the day (google calendar)
5) radio starts playing
6) on the tv screen i see the most importent news updates

the hardware i would like to do this with:
- rPi with domoticz ofcourse
- a tv /screen (maybe a ir sender for turing on the tv) but again, this is not the hard part for me)
- a laptop (connected to the tv)

Has someone done something like this before? and can someone help me?
the main thing to do is sending commands from domoticz to a pc i think...

or maybe if someone has better/other solutions..

regards,
Thomas

Don't make it too hard for yourself at the beginning. Start by 'solving' each point at a time, then you can combine it later.

Some links to get you started:

http://domoticz.com/wiki/Google_voice

Don't know which brand TV/radio you have, but maybe this will help you:

oh great thanks!
I'll start with looking at the 'Google_voice' and 'Virtual_weather_device' scripts
virtual weather devices am i allready using..

My tv is just an ordinary not smart tv, but i will use a homemade ir sender to turn it on..
it's the laptop that will be some kind of 'media center' and the tv the screen,

so i would like that this laptop is handeling all sound/video/... from my domoticz

Is it possible to let this laptop (not with domoticz) say the 'google_voice' info? if i had sonos speakers this would probalby be possible with them? but i dont have them.. but if a sonos can do it.. a laptop should also be able to do it with the right software/applications ?

HI! i've made some progress with this project

alarm goes off --> tasker send command to domoticz
then domoticz turns on the lights and sends a signal to my pc (with eventghost) to open a radio stream


but i have a question..

when you open google and do a voice search like: 'whats the weather for today' it will answer you with voice..
is there a way to get the same result but without asking it? so some kind of link to get the answer WITH voice?

when i do a voice search, and then use the link that is created by voice search i don't get the spoken answer.. is there a way around this?

thanks!
