@angeldeejay that looks great! I will test it and maybe use it instead of or together with my DevContainer https://github.com/HeikoGr/MMM-DevContainer

MagicMirror MCP Server Integration For AI Assistants

Rags — Thu, 19 Mar 2026 15:12:45 GMT

Thanks to the observation from @KristjanESPERANTO, I have updated the code avoided Axios completely and used the native Fetch. And while I was at it I also added the HomeAssistant integration. Checkout the latest update; https://github.com/CyberRagz/magicmirror-mcp

MMM-ChoiceBoard - a Autism support chooser

wswenson — Wed, 11 Mar 2026 18:00:07 GMT

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.

Integration of Cupra/Seat Telemetry Data in my MM

Foxy25 — Thu, 26 Feb 2026 20:28:51 GMT

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

Dynamic Module Chaining

BKeyport — Fri, 18 Jul 2025 12:44:54 GMT

@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?

Certificate Handling with MagicMirror Modules: Where and How Should .p12 Files Be Used?

sdetweil — Wed, 09 Jul 2025 20:55:40 GMT

@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.

Photoprism image module

eddiebrok — Sat, 31 May 2025 15:39:16 GMT

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.

Do you need to list moment and moment-timezone as dependencies in modules?

dathbe — Fri, 23 May 2025 01:12:09 GMT

@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.

start() vs receiving waiting for MODULE_DOM_CREATED notification?

dathbe — Fri, 11 Apr 2025 05:45:31 GMT

@sdetweil I’d rather have late and working consistently than early and missed because of lag. I suspect most people boot their mirror at most once a day, so waiting an extra 30 seconds for the module to show content doesn’t seem like that big of a deal. But I’ll try DOM_OBJECTS_CREATED.

Need help for a module who give advice because of the weather

mumblebaj — Fri, 04 Apr 2025 13:32:24 GMT

@Xx_Codeur_xX You could have a look at some of the modules that already does this. They get the weather from the default weather module, no need to redo this as it is already available. See either of the below. https://github.com/fruestueck/MMM-WeatherDependentClothes or https://github.com/Lavve/MMM-WeatherOutfit/tree/main

How to Use NY Times Subscription with Default Newsfeed Module

JohnGalt — Fri, 28 Mar 2025 14:38:44 GMT

@karsten13 – Yes, that’s what I figured. The problem from the provider’s perspective would be how to both give access to legitimate subscribers while limiting access to others. The only solution that springs to mind would be to authenticate the user when they query the server, but for something like this where all the users’ computers might each be coming for content several times each day - it begins to be a lot of computing overhead.

Trouble with Sending Notifcation on Module Start

sdetweil — Fri, 14 Mar 2025 01:22:49 GMT

@raspberrypi9 my pleasure, And actually DOM_OBJECTS_CREATED means YOUR module’s content has been placed in the DOM the first time And DOM_OBJECTS_UPDATED is each time after that Because updateDom() is asynchronous now If you ever tried to document.getElementByID after getDom(), but it returned null. Then you needed to wait for one of those notifications

Simplfying my understanding of sendNotification and sendSocketNotification with and without a this

sdetweil — Sun, 02 Mar 2025 14:37:52 GMT

@kayakbabe and on the architecture/design topic if you are doing the signage solution, then one would want one data fetch and broadcast to each client vs each client getting the data on their own some provider apikeys count data access requests (openweather) . so while you dont NEED a node_helper, sometimes you want it. but some of the existing modules dont really support that thought
