Working on a concept… This will be a board that allows an autistic person to select from a set of options - there can be 1 or more option - with the sweet spot being 4 (2x2 matrix). There is an admin interface (ala MMM-Chores style) that the parents would use to manage the specific choices. I have some experience with this above, so this would work for our use case, might not work for all. The interface is kept simple and muted to reduce sensory overload. Open to feedback and thoughts.

Hi, i have finish my development to integrate Cupra / Seat Telemetry Data in my MagicMirror. I don’t have writen a Module for MM, but i have integratet a Python Script to read via Node-Red the Data from the Car, and send it over MQTT to the MM. All the Work do Node-Red. Im not sure, if Im right here, but maybe it helps some other Users. It is writen in german, so if you need an other language use a translator. Installation of pycupra to read the data: https://github.com/SteitzTo/pycupra_manual_de.git Installation of an Node-Red Workflow to send the Data to the MM: https://github.com/SteitzTo/pycupra_to_MagicMirror.git I hope it helps other Users to Display some Data from there cars. Greetings Torsten

That’s an interesting idea, especially if the goal is to move away from cloud-dependent photo services. A local PhotoPrism module feels very much in the spirit of self-hosted and privacy-first workflows. If the images are already accessible via a local API or filesystem path, it sounds feasible at least at a prototype level. Even with limited programming experience, starting small (read-only image display, basic refresh) could be a good way to learn while building something useful. I’ve seen people take a similar approach with small side tools first, sometimes even experimenting with lightweight generators (like a brat generator) just to understand how UI, data, and rendering fit together before tackling a bigger integration. There’s likely interest here, especially from others trying to de-Google their setups. Posting progress updates might help attract collaborators once you get a basic proof of concept going.

@HeikoGr 👍

Hey @bachoo786, I’ve been following your progress with the folder nesting—it’s a tricky bit of logic to get right in the node_helper, but it’ll be worth it for the cleaner UI! One thing I noticed while setting up my own music module is that the player looks a lot better if the MP3 metadata (ID3 tags) is actually clean. If the tags are messy, the ‘Artist’ and ‘Title’ fields on the mirror usually end up looking like a jumble of underscores and file extensions. Since you’re organizing a big library right now, I’ve been using https://editmp3tags.com/ to quickly fix the tags in the browser before dropping them into the music folder. It’s way faster than using a heavy desktop app and helps the module display everything correctly once you get that ‘better method’ logic sorted out.

That’s a great help. I’m going to try this soon and fiddle around with it. Good job 👍🏻.

I spent a bit of time an got the following to work by using help of a friend. I wrote the following in the css: /* custom.css */ /* Passt die Gesamtbreite des gesamten Moduls an */ .MMM-HoymilesPVMonitor { /* Beispiel: Setzt die maximale Breite des gesamten Moduls auf 200 Pixel */ max-width: 200px; /* Stellt sicher, dass das Modul zentriert bleibt, falls es kleiner als die Spalte ist */ margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; } /* Passt den inneren Container an, der das Canvas-Diagramm enthält. Dies überschreibt die 95% Breite, die im JS definiert wurde. */ .MMM-HoymilesPVMonitor div:first-child { /* Setzt die Breite des Containers auf 100% der oben definierten max-width (z.B. 200px). Sie können hier auch absolute Werte (z.B. 180px) verwenden, aber 100% ist am flexibelsten. */ width: 100% !important; } Now it is smaller, nevertheless I can’t get it much more smaller because the gauge will disappear then. (It’s not displayed correctly in the screenshot, but it is on my mirror.) [image: 1762507583422-screenshot-2025-11-07-102555.jpg]

Thanks mate! That´s brilliant! I´ll check it out at and keep you posted!

here’s how I did it. Set up SAMBA on the pi, and include a mapping to your photos drive (I wouldn’t recommend keeping them locally) magic mirror’s config, using MMM-Backgroundslideshow /* Magic Mirror Config by Brendan Keyport. */ /* Office - Certificate Display */ var config = { address: "0.0.0.0", port: 8082, // port is 8082 as I use a server/client style setup. ipWhitelist: [], language: "en", timeFormat: 12, units: "imperial", //logLevel: ["INFO", "LOG", "WARN", "ERROR", "DEBUG"], customCss: "css/custom3.css", modules: [ { module: 'MMM-BackgroundSlideshow', position: 'fullscreen_below', config: { imagePaths: ['<path to shared folder>'], transitionImages: true, randomizeImageOrder: true, showAllImagesBeforeRestart: true, //transitionSpeed: 0, gradient: [0], horizontalGradient: [0], backgroundSize: "contain" } } /*************** DO NOT EDIT BELOW ***************/ ] }; if (typeof module !== "undefined") { module.exports = config; } Easy as Pi.

@haji6 Every module that supports this SHOULD have documentation that shows how they talk to each other. Imagine a room full of people. In that room - only one person can speak at a time. Person A (Calendar) will yell out “I have an Event at 8:30 called Appointment” and write it on it’s part of the whiteboard (Might be nowhere). Then Person B will hear it and write it on a whiteboard where it’s told to for all to see. This is a simplified version of how the notification system works. My module (MMM-Multimonth) and others uses the above concept to display data. Why rewrite work when you can use what’s provided?

@Mistiz you shouldn’t need any certificates for MM to external connections, as the source server is required to provide the cert that covers its connections… MM does not provide a cert, as we don’t use http, assuming we are on a close private network in our homes. certs are a pita(pain in the a) in general … for access INTO my system , I no longer use an open port, and don’t have to provide certs for every source, or router module(gateway) I use cloudflare zero trust tunnel. they provide the cert, and maintain it. their endpoint connector runs on your network and can http connect to services at that level.

@Rberry91 the file path doesn’t have <> in it that was just substitute thing here

@sdetweil Maybe I’m wrong, and I haven’t spent a lot of time trying to test it, but I think regular moment will grab the date in the local timezone based on what is set in the system. You can’t do as much with OTHER timezones in regular moment, but I think at least that works. Whereas the regular javascript date will pull the date and time in UTC. That said, I do use moment-timezone in my modules–though some of them I have taken over maintaining, and they used regular moment to some success.

@sdetweil said in LICENSE: on modules.magicmirror.builders shows @noassertion instead of MIT: click the hints for dev view bottom left hint link works … looks like problems on your side …

Hi @Jalibu, thanks for the typings. To be honest, it’s not the best possible integration. The MagicMirror repository includes a module-types.ts file, containing the most important types, which I extended a little to fit my needs. A deeper integration, like being able to get correct typings/autocompletion for the this object in functions, is not available. If I find myself using it more in the future, I may look into improving this. I want to share an little extension or may a solution for the problem quoted: import type { Config } from "../types/Config"; import type { State } from "../types/State"; interface FrontendModuleProperties extends Partial<Module.ModuleProperties<Config>> { state?: State; } Module.register<Config>("MMM-XX", { defaults: { x: 29, y: "abc", }, getStyles() { return ["z.css"]; }, <...> getTemplateData() { return { config: this.config, value: this.state?.value, }; }, <...> socketNotificationReceived(notificationIdentifier: string, payload: State) { if (notificationIdentifier === `ABC-${this.identifier}`) { const lastValue = this.state?.value; // <-- Here lastValue got correct type automatically <...> this.state = payload; } }, } as FrontendModuleProperties);
