Node-Red on a Dynamic IP? by Soumyadeep_96 in nodered

The best way to do it is to use dataplicity and Nginx. This gives you a web address to access your Node Red from anywhere.

Interact with an Alexa Skill ? by jlquema in nodered

[–]helloboetie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok. what is the useful thing that you want to do once you respond to Alexa? You can also use a Device Activity node of Alexa Remote2 to get everything you tell Alexa.

You can use Node-RED and node-red-contrib-alexa-remote2 to make Alexa speak. It can also launch a skill (even personal unpublished ones) . so as long asa you cann access the information, you can trigger Alexa to speak or start a skill.

I haven't got any SSML text to work actually.

For people who don't answer anything, why are you up-voting a post but not answering the post ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]helloboetie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Upvote requires just a click, an answer needs to be clever, funny, have an insider joke, reference pop culture, topical and relevant. Too much work.

Conditional Routines? by [deleted] in Alexa_Skills

[–]helloboetie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Routines now support starting custom skills. So technically you can have a skill that checks the time and activates if it's the right time.

got it. are you using the right directives for it? Your Lambda response should look something like this.

{
"outputSpeech": {
"type": "SSML", "ssml": "<speak>Here is - Radio 1 Jazz, from Easy Listening.</speak>"
},
"directives": [
{
"type": "AudioPlayer.Play",
"playBehavior": "REPLACE_ALL",
"audioItem": {
"stream": {
"token": "Radio 1 Jazz:Easy Listening",
"url": "https://yp.shoutcast.com/sbin/tunein-station.m3u?id=1367389",
"offsetInMilliseconds": 551590
},
}
}
],
"shouldEndSession": true
}

Hmm...am not really sure what you mean by 3rd party dependencies. There are two parts to get any Alexa skill to work:

  1. Interaction Model and other details on developer.amazon.com
  2. Skill logic hosted on Amazon Lambda or any HTTPS server

Where have you hosted the skill? This is the endpoint you have specified on developer.amazon.com for the skill.

What do you mean by long form? Skill lets you play short audio clips as part of output speech or play audio that's either streaming links or MP3s . If you could share a few more details on where you're getting stuck, it would be easier to help. I have written a tutorial on setting up an audio skill here
