Anyone know how to make triggercmd work with alexa via node red?
-
Hi guys I'm italian and since the triggercmd skill has no italian version available I was looking for a way to make it work on node red. I already managed to get my harmony hub work with my alexa with italian commands (again, the harmony hub skill doesn't support italian but with node red I did it). but I don't know how to make triggercmd work with node red. any help?

@jarvis1, I've never used node red, but could you use this simple get request function to call a bookmark URL?

mhhhh, a get request to what? i used a post request to send commands to triggercmd but it sends that via ifttt whenever I send an email to the ifttt personal email. I created a send mail node and connected with the alexa node so whenever I ask her the command she sends the mail which triggers ifttt which send the post request
but this is not working properly with multiple commands. so I'm wondering if your idea is good. what should I call with the get request? what do i do with the bookmark url? can you explain it a bit better please?

@russ okay never mind I got it! I will try to connect the alexa node to the http get request node to send the request and call the bookmark. I hope it works, it looks pretty easy.. finger crossed! I'll try it later
