Echo Remote 2
Fonzo/bumaas forked by roastedelectrons
Module for controlling music playback and announcements (text-to-speech) on Echo devices. It also enables routines to be started, push messages to be sent to the Alexa app, evaluation of the last actions of the Echo devices, and various information such as wake-up times and lists.
BREAKING-CHANGE: As of version 2.0 authentication is done exclusively by means of refresh token, which must be generated once (with an external tool) and stored in the module.
DISCLAIMER: The module uses an undocumented interface to alexa.amazon.de. Therefore, the function can be discontinued at any time without notice.
