@Bronno Hmmm Official docs are not explicitly mentioning it. Only Google knows. Anyway, some langs looks being supported but I cannot guarantee about it.

Im having a hardtime figuring out how i should setup the this module to get the key input from a default keyboard. this is my config now (https://pastebin.com/nPghyGHk). i dont really get the actions part here. where i am now i just want to log the keypress. nothing fancy until i understand this :( Okey then the second thing is that i saw that the module itself have some open space ready for stuff inside the “keyhandler.js” (https://pastebin.com/gCZZzdMP) . like what am i supposed to put here? Sorry im new to this magicmirror and electron. Thanks alot for taking your time reading this! hopefully you can help me out^^ Regards l0b5ter

@sdetweil Oh! That’s great! Onward, then :D

Very cool! Are you still working on this @Lorenz ?

Hi, I have used MMM-MQTT as the basis for my MMM-TeslaLogger module. In MMM-MQTT there is an own local directory node_modules. At first sight this local dir is identical with the dir node_modules in the root directory of Magic Mirror. I now try to get rid of the local dir node_modules in my module. But I do not succeed. In MMM-TeslaLogger.js I only found one reference to the local node_modules, namely jsonpointer.js. This is also the case in MMM-MQTT. But if I change this reference to the node_modules in the Magic Mirror root, the module doesn’t run anymore and partly generates error messages. The pm2 log also shows error messages for the node_helper. These seem to refer to the line after the last line of the file ??? I am a JavaScript Newbee and can’t get any further. Can someone please take a look at this? Unfortunately I don’t have access to the error messages right now - sorry. I will deliver them later. I would be very grateful for any help. Regards Josef

hello, more informations for anyone if i can help. here my “test.bat” : The first action is to convert pdf to jpg (only page 1 and more options like remove source, rotate,…) on my desktop folder. the second to delete files from destination before the third action to copy all files from desktop folder to raspberry echo off cls 2jpeg.exe -src “*.pdf” -dst “C:\Users\W-7\Desktop\immo” -options pages:“1” overwrite:yes delsrc:yes -oper Rotate angle:180 echo For more examples please look at: echo http://www.2jpeg.com/overview/2jpeg-command-line-syntax pause del \@IP_Raspberry\Partage2*.* /s /q pause XCOPY C:\Users\W-7\Desktop\immo*jpg \@IP_Raspberry\Partage2 /s /h /Y

be careful loading lots of services in the modulename.js via getscripts… all that is loaded into the browser… (and every instance of the browser used) load them in the node_helper via require as single instance, and move the memory and load to the server side

@Hendrik9203 ah, u want to scroll the page IN the iframe… I don’t know anything that does it already here is some technical info about ‘HOW’ to do it… https://www.dyn-web.com/tutorials/iframes/postmessage/

Some future direction and option https://github.com/dvbit/Kinect-Mouse-Swipe-C-Module Not touch but gestures

Just finished one bit of the whole but I would like to start sharing back to the community. Wrote a C module that works as virtual mouse and interprets swipes with help of a kinect gen1 . Works only on raspberry 4 or debian pc. Next : write the corresponding mm module. The c program is built to do that (outputs json to stdout to be fed to a js) Here is the link to github. Doc is WIP but you can start form there. Any contribution is welcome . Forgive the code. Recoded after just 25 years . https://github.com/dvbit/Kinect-Mouse-Swipe-C-Module Here is a video in https://youtu.be/HuSI21rGujg

@ToastyRoshi said in Help on reading in a text file from a Google Drive: Any chance of sharing module? While you’re waiting you can check this one out. I think it’s fantastic. https://github.com/cowboysdude/MMM-Recipe

Does any programmer accept the challenge of creating a module to put KODI / LibreELEC in MagicMirror? I could for example watch TV while shaving. rsrs

@BKeyport possble. some modules like RemoteControl and notificationTrigger, can receive HTTP Request. If your script can send custom HTTP request(to localhost or internal IP), those modules can control other modules.

Thanks! I will update when the module is published. First I need to solve some issues :)

@sdetweil oh I see, I made some modification based on your suggestion const spawn = require("child_process").spawn var NodeHelper = require("node_helper") var process = spawn("python", ["/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Attend/attendance.py"]) require('events').EventEmitter.defaultMaxListeners = 0; module.exports = NodeHelper.create({ socketNotificationReceived: function(notification, payload){ switch(notification) { case "GIVE_ME_DATA": process.stderr.on("data", (data)=>{ console.log("attend process errorr= "+data) }) process.stdout.on("data", (data)=>{ console.log("attend data = "+data) var result = String.fromCharCode.apply(null, new Uint16Array((data))) this.sendSocketNotification("HERE_IS_DATA", result) }) break } }, }) is this what you mean based on your previous comment. Because I don’t really get it

@MichMich none of the tests pass on my mac Catalina

@sdetweil JSON is perfect: [image: 1576264518754-ff13b851-b585-43c2-a741-02e28faa83e9-image.png] Thanks for the help so far!! Now I have my data I can play around with it.

@cookblook The MM2 is a webserver, more or less. Take a look at MMM-Syslog (https://github.com/paviro/MMM-syslog)
