Configuration file

Configuration of AlexaPi is stored in a file called config.yaml, which as the extension suggests uses the YAML format. AlexaPi looks for this file in several locations:

  • /etc/opt/AlexaPi
  • the src subdirectory of AlexaPi installation (AlexaPi/src)

The last existing file in this ordered list will be used. That means normally /etc/opt/AlexaPi/config.yaml is used, but if you create config.yaml in the latter paths, it will be used instead.

Note: If you change the custom "wake" word under the pocketspinx: header, ensure this is entered in lowercase!

For example, "Alexa" will not be recognised, however "alexa" will.
