Janet (The Good Place)

I pm you for more detail.

Do you use team viewer?

That only for my private used. ^^

im also trying this, my config check shows no errors, but I cant hear any sound or receive notifications.

i use mopidy for sounds right now.

Am I missing something?

is there a way to add this so it plays sound?

Did your mopidy works accordingly when use google tts?

You need to have setup tts google setup first and test if your google tts works then you can use service: tts_google_say

Also tts google involve with base_url under http: in configuration.yaml 

http:
  base_url: http://ha_ip_address:port  or https://ha_ip_address:port
  put the # server_port: 8123

Ater change this then see if you can use google tts.

while scanning for the next token
found character ‘%’ that cannot start any token
in “/config/scripts.yaml”, line 571, column 12

it must have been spacing, i got a good config check, restarting now. ill see how it goes!

the # or ## that I put in is the comment for you to change according to your setting. After you have change remove all (## and comment behind it) from the file, save file, check your config and restart your home-assistant.

{% if states.input_select.janet_notification_media_player.state == ‘media_player.fire_speaker’ %}

For you to regonise and notice whether it is an automation or script.

You see from word “sequence” <== this is script
You see from word “trigger” <== this is automation

All 3 are script file. put it where you save the script
janet_speech_engine: <=== to read from input_select.janet_notification_media_player (fire speaker or mpd)

janet_speech_processing <=== the speaking part, read the media player from the janet_speech_engine:

janet_text_processing: <=== this is the text message part, can send notify to your phone. use any text notify you have in HA, then it will send you the message.

great explanation, very helpful. Thank you!

one more question, how do i test it. I have to be honest other then greeting us when we come home what can she actually do? I love the good place so this really has my attention!

Did you already have google tts working? if so then use the automation to call everytime one of your member back home and want greeting.

Now if i do a Config check I get this error:

Now here is Line 718 in my Script.yaml

{% if states.input_select.janet_notification_media_player.state == 'media_player.fire_speaker' %}

Im not sure if more errors will come up after fixing this, but i hope to figure it out sooner or later.

Does anybody know if I’m missing anything or see anything I should have changed.
I am using the new HassOs

Also is - ### change to notify you have notify.janet ### this just a line to tell me notify.janet will be installed after a restart?

Thanks to anybody who can help a brother out!

{% if states.input_select.janet_notification_media_player.state == ‘media_player.fire_speaker’ %} <== the media_player.fire_speaker inside bracket has to match input_select.janet_notification_media_player

try copy and paste this. Check the indent and see the color has to be similar like other script.

    message: >-
      {{ speech_message | replace("\n","") | replace("   ","") |
         replace("eight hundred and sixty one thousand","861.000") }}

I figured out the notify.janet had to be changed to notify.corey (sometimes i miss the obvious)

now this error, im looking into it now.

Unable to find service notify/corey

see the line

  • service: notify.janet #<=== you have to change this to notify you have example notify.ios_your_iphone or notify.telegram_name_you_have or pushbullet. What notify you have in HA change to according to what you have.

If you don’t have any notify text message. then just turn off janet text notification on frontend of ha.

I do have notify.ios_corey

I havent been able to get zone location other then myself to work. But the service is showing.

I do think the Janet automation isn’t working because of
