    @OrangeMirror the current docker setup will only work for multiple instances IF you use the MM_CONFIG_FILE environment variable to run instances off different config files, or the MM_PORT env variable to override the port if using the same config.js all the files will come from the ONE folder tree ~/magicmirror so this means you would have to setup multiple entries in the compose.yaml to launch multiple instances (with the different config parms) You have to change the container name too this is because all the DATA used by the container is external (on docker host filesystem) and not IN the container an example NOT using docker, but same idea here https://docs.magicmirror.builders/configuration/introduction.html#advanced-configuration-and-frequently-asked-how-to-configure-examples

    That’s a question for @MichMich. As he mentioned above, he has a module on his to-do list, but it takes time to develop something like that. We all have busy schedules too. Catch-22.

    Essentially you are using your own github account to do that. Write your code, commit it to github, and then share it with the rest of the world. Github has extensive help pages on their site. A good beginner’s guide is here: http://product.hubspot.com/blog/git-and-github-tutorial-for-beginners I would recommend you start there and when you get stuck (or if you get stuck), let us know where/how, and we can try to help resolve the issue then.

    Reddit user Comm4nd0 has just released his code for his AI. The link includes a video with a demonstration of its capabilities. Looks pretty impressive! https://www.reddit.com/r/raspberry_pi/comments/4ovcpm/raspberrypi_ai_code_as_requested/

    @MichMich Agreed! Definitely show some of the modules we’ve got around here, and other mirrors. What MichMich posted should be enough to make a pretty good video.

    After years of programming & translations I learned a lot. In my own language (frisian) we do use some of these a lot, and in the other language (Dutch) we don’t use them often. But for every starter it can Be a huge problem to solve this very Tiny issue. I Hope you did finish your translation and Made a PR.

    Shopping / To Do List

    Personally I use Google Keep. The reason I like it is because I can use it to write notes, set alarm on notes, I can create shopping lists with it, and if I want to get creative, even to-do lists, although the latter is better done with Google Tasks. And, for me, best of all, it’s synced across all of my devices, computer, phone, tablet. The bad news is, Google Keep does not have an API, however Google Tasks does, it’s a REST API. I’ve thought about it quite a bit actually, but haven’t had time to actually start looking at what it would take.

    @KirAsh4 I pretty much have the same opinion. However you should still be able to install node and npm on the Pi 1. The create a config file error is probably related to some typo in your configuration file or you did some other mistake setting the the thing up. Seems like you did not install the dependencies by using npm install? This could also be a reason :)

    I moved this into the general discussion category since it isn’t a real module (yet?).

    It’s a warning, sure. And perhaps their product is indeed easily scratched. Ask around, go a different place or vendor, see what kind of response you get.

    @MichMich Yes it does, But I have tested on a iMac. Installing on a raspberry pi, is little bit annoying. 0_1462962894899_npm-debug.log
