Implement all Alexa APIs

[balloob]

This is a catch all issue to track Alexa Capability Interfaces.

Smart Home

• Alexa.BrightnessController
• Alexa.CameraStreamController
• Alexa.ChannelController
• Alexa.ColorController
• Alexa.ColorTemperatureController
• Alexa.ContactSensor
• Alexa.CustomIntent Currently in invitation only preview through Alexa. Would allow for Custom intent utterances.
• Alexa.DoorbellEventSource
• Alexa.EndpointHealth
• Alexa.EqualizerController
• Alexa.EventDetectionSensor
• Alexa.InputController
• Alexa.InventoryLevelSensor - Allows users to automate ordering (through Amazon) of consumables based on sensors. e.g. printer ink/toner.
• Alexa.LockController
• Alexa.MediaMetadata - Allow showing mp4 recordings in combination with an event being detected. We don't have a proper infrastructure to handle recordings in HA
• Alexa.ModeController
• Alexa.MotionSensor
• Alexa.PercentageController
• Alexa.PowerController
• Alexa.PowerLevelController
• Alexa.RangeController
• Alexa.RTCSessionController - Requires WebRTC support in stream integration
• Alexa.SceneController
• Alexa.SecurityPanelController
• Alexa.Speaker
• Alexa.StepSpeaker
• Alexa.TemperatureSensor
• Alexa.ThermostatController
• Alexa.ToggleController
• Alexa.WakeOnLANController HA already has a WoL integration. This implementation would duplicate that, but the command would come from the echo device.

Video

• Alexa.KeypadController
• Alexa.Launcher
• Alexa.PlaybackController
• Alexa.PlaybackStateReporter
• Alexa.RecordController
• Alexa.RemoteVideoPlayer
• Alexa.SeekController
• Alexa.VideoRecorder

Cooking

• Alexa.Cooking
• Alexa.TimeHoldController
• Alexa.Cooking.FoodTemperatureController
• Alexa.Cooking.FoodTemperatureSensor
• Alexa.Cooking.PresetController
• Alexa.Cooking.TemperatureController
• Alexa.Cooking.TemperatureSensor
• Alexa.Cooking.TimeController

Networking

Control network access via voice with supported integrations such as Unifi

• Alexa.Networking.AccessController
• Alexa.Networking.ConnectedDevice
• Alexa.Networking.HomeNetworkController

Conferencing

Not relevant. Is for Alexa meeting devices.

• Alexa.Calendar
• Alexa.MeetingClientController

Meetings

Not relevant. Is for Alexa meeting devices.

• Alexa.Business.Reservation.Room

Hi @ochlocracy and @balloob

I'm interested in implementing "Alexa.Launcher" and "Alexa.RemoteVideoPlayer" for androidtv media player devices.

The "Alexa.Launcher" one looks straight forward, pretty much the same as the sources input but it picks from all apps rather than the filtered list of alexa inputs. Would need to do fuzzy matching on name or maintain mapping of amazon app id to android app id https://developer.amazon.com/en-US/docs/alexa/video/launch-target-reference.html

The "Alexa.RemoteVideoPlayer" is a little bit more complex. Ideally the user could set a priority ordered list of all streaming services they have and based on a "Watch " it uses the highest priority streaming service to play the content. The issue here is amazon only provide the imdb ID unless you're an alexa partner (then you get a bunch more). On the plus side, I've learned the folks over at strem.io have an API that converts imdb IDs to a bunch of different services for example https://watchhub.strem.io/stream/movie/tt0251127.json or tv https://watchhub.strem.io/stream/movie/tt4786824%3A1%3A4.json where the last two values in that url are episode 1 season 1 not that they matter.

Along with the comments above, from what I've gathered, its necessary to mark the skill as a video still in the alexa developer console before a TV will get picked up correctly.

I have hacked together a very basic proof of concept https://twitter.com/imduffy15/status/1328074452140232704 the implementation behind this is crappy. Would love to have some discussion on how you would like to go about designing this, I was thinking of maybe introducing a service on the androidtv media players of something like "watch imdb id media" and adding the additional configuration there to do the priority list of streaming services.

I haven’t been able to get my Garage Door to actually be controlled by Alexa. It shows up but doesn’t have open close options. Could it be this.

GARAGE_DOOR	A garage door. Garage doors must implement the ModeController interface to open and close the door.

Hi i am interested to work on this issue

[robsonfelix]

Is there any idea as to when devices will be published to Alexa with their corresponding areas as "groups"?

This issue is pretty old, I'll go ahead and clean it up for now. Let's re-index when needed and task it out at that point.
