Due to my looking arround for lovely adons i was stoping with alexa to automate things with openplotter.
Alexa runs in a good way on a raspberry pi and i thought i will just try it... If you follow several instructions its relative easy to run alexa in the same pi i use for open plotter. What are the little hints and nickelings?
First is the port 3000 what is used by our well loved Signal K server. but this hint can be solved to change in the companion www file to give alexa another port. In my case it is port 3100.
At openplotter so in genel raall runs well but somehow in my installation there is no popup to register the device. i hope saillog as maintainer do in future support alxa installation. it seems at this point in nmt are changes.... to make yours own voice notification system. Anker alarm notyfied by voice, waterdeepth warnings and switshes are so no more a real problem. use a sonoff for 4 euros and you have a switch. In general alexa dot can interact with signal k
Maybee some like to play and install alexa... if its helpfull for specialized marine skills we will see. i think its worth to play with it. investment is just a usb microphone.
