Let me know what you guys think about this solution. 

I was trying to make a TTS using Google platform instead of Raspberry Pi... 

I gave up and made this video for the matter of fun and to accomplish my goal. I did it!

I want to create a channel on Youtube called Automate That! where I would make integration of funny things just for the matter of possibility. Subscribe to my channel please?

Thank you!

Very nice...... Now, can this be put into a nodeserver that is easy to use for the less techie among us..... ?

As asked before, do you think that this can work with ISY ?

No idea.  Leaving that to the professionals...

I have used that before, ISY has no audio output so we need a raspberry pi to work... somehow I "over used it" and google api blocked my ip... no more TTS. But Google TTS voice is the nicest one... im still using TTS through Rpi but i would love to find a way to trigger the google home to speak.

This was just a joke... i dont think this is convenient to use...

Well, there are Python and node.js binding for the API. Someone that knows nodeservers could likely implement fairly easily.

Biggest issues are ISY lack of string handling (workarounds are in the Polyglot world - but it sure would be nice to see strings natively as ISY variables!) and being able to keep track of costs (there is a free tier - and many would want to stay within that).

How about this?  https://github.com/greghesp/assistant-relay

I was going to look into running this on the RPI4 that I am running polyglot on.  Currently having issues following the directions to get the google side online.  May be this weekend.

Will this nodeserver eventually appear in the nodeserver store on Polyglot ?

It's not a nodeserver, it's a nodejs program you run on another computer. I worked on integrating it into notification nodeserver but was waiting for new v3 release which is just come out recently but I've not had time to try.

Any chance this could be revisited? Being able to send Google Home commands from an ISY would be a great feature. I can think of a million things I'd like to tap into with that functionality. This is exactly what I'm looking for!

I would like to, but still a haven't had the time.

Could we chip into a tip jar for you, to help motivate the project?? $$$

count me in !

 

As a matter of fact, I would favor for all nodeserver developers to list their Paypal or Venmo account, so that we show our appreciation for well working nodeservers.

For sure! That's a good idea.
