  I don’t know that switch! But it read from dockerfile? My strategy is a bit longer but it can guarantee that all is updated and I can also add git pull for every module in the sequence… Edit: I give a try, but not works, and didn’t find that on documentation. https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/run/

  So i’m not sure if anyone is still watching this thread but I’ve been banging my head against the wall trying to sync. The tutorial is awesome and clearly there was a ton of work put in, so I don’t ask questions lightly. I followed the directions to the letter but i can’t seem to control the sync. one time it took 2.5 mins and the next time it took 9 mins. here is my timer… GNU nano 2.7.4 File: /etc/systemd/user/vdirsyncer.timer [Unit] Description=Synchronize vdirs [Timer] OnBootSec=1m OnUnitActiveSec=1m AccuracySec=1m [Install] WantedBy=timers.target that’s the only thing i have changed. it’s like i can’t get the sync to activate. I have maybe 5 different modules running but nothing crazy (weather, clock, jeopardy, etc) if i manually vdirsyncer sync and then reload the mirror AWESOME, no problems. just cant get the damn timer to work any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated…I’m still new to all this so thanks

  @tinsebayacc I just added some code to my module to handle PIR_SENSOR sending notice of user around… so you shouldn’t have to change anything there… well, stop it from turning off the display

  All depends on the enclosure behind the mirror, I have a fairly closed box ( large air volume inside so heat isn’t an issue). And the inside don’t get condensation on it, and generally the part with the screen behind it usually gets warm enough so it doesn’t get foggy. I wouls strongly advice against anything not glass when it comes to a bathroom mirror due to scratching. The bathroom mirror usually needs more cleaning than say a hallway mirror and the more you clean the more scratching will occur. So the harder the surface the better. And the coated side inwards the screen so you don’t accidentally damage it.

  If you create two modules you could use MMM-ModuleScheduler to schedule the show/hide of one the modules. I have not used it but it appears to do what you are asking. https://github.com/ianperrin/MMM-ModuleScheduler I personally use MMM-Remote-Control, but to do this you need to send a http request to show/hide the module. I do this through Home Assistant. https://github.com/Jopyth/MMM-Remote-Control

  Re: Sync private iCloud calendar with MagicMirror HI guys, this has been very helpful! I do have a problem concerning the automatic sync. I can manually sync my iCloud calendar using : vdirsyncer sync but i can’t get it to do it automatically. Is there a way to find what I did wrong? Thanks a lot.

  Hello Jimmy95! Thank you for your reply. I forgot to mark this as solved. I ended up finding a work-around by changing the URL in the vdirsyncer config file from a specific URL to “from b”. It downloads and syncs all my calendars and notes - more than i need in fact; then I just add the URL for each calendar i want to see to the module instead. Seems to be working well. Thank you for your help though, and I will take a look at that link you provided to see if I can clean up and streamline the operations on my end anyhow.

  “One point of Strength increases your damage with Swords by 10” do you have a set of those messages that you could examine for a pattern like 1st -4th word are the cause (‘One point of Strength’) 5th word has direction (‘increases’) 7th-9th words has the effect (‘damage with Swords’) last word has the adjustment value (10) if they all have that pattern, you could write a regular expression to extract them and their parts
