Hi Guys
I know this is an old thread but thought it would be best to have this quote for reference.
I just recently got an Amazon Echo dot and followed the recreated tutorial ((
http://voxcommando.com/forum/index.php?topic=2761.0) to get it working with VoxCommando. It works fine but after reading this threads and watching some other YouTube videos I'm now thinking the code from the recreated tutorial is not the new code James created but instead the original code Dave created.
If I'm correct can someone post the new code James created (Node.js lambda code + VC command XML)
My apologizes if this is found in another thread but i didn't see it.
Thank You
The most efficient starting point for trying to resolve the problem at this point is to review each of James's instructional steps again to make sure each has been properly implemented.
His instructions are here: http://voxcommando.com/forum/index.php?topic=2682.msg23144#msg23144
These included:
2. Have VC version 2.2.3.4 or later installed.
3. Create the environment variables, as described, by re-accessing the web page for the "Jarvis" function that you initially created in the AWS console.
4. Make sure the username and password used in your environment variables matches the username and password you created in VoxCommando's TCP plugin settings.
5. On the same web page in the AWS console, replace the entire Node.js lambda code that Dave originally provided with the code that James attached to his post (link above). *important* you must change one line at the beginning of James's code near line 5:
edit one line in that script var Echo_App_ID = "amzn1.ask.skill...." to use your own App ID.
Make sure your App ID has quotation marks around it, as in the example provided.
6. In VoxCommando, delete the old command group from Dave's original instructions and replace it with the VC command XML in James's post.
