  greetings, I’m building my first little module which sends a notification to Alert module by this.sendNotification("SHOW_ALERT", {title: "blah", imageFA: 'bullhorn', message: "blah", timer: 5000}); the problem is any icon in imageFA except bullhorn isn’t shown even with adding the proper getStyles: function() { return ['font-awesome.css']; }, to my_module.js file so the question is, does alert module fully handle the notification payload (which contains imageFA data) if so looks like there is a problem with the default module?, or something missing has to be configured first in my module??

  I’ve only looked at this a couple of time, but if you wanted to spend some time on getting a module running, it’s possible that this could be a jumping off point.

  @strawberry-3-141, @sdetweil Thanks for your help and pointing me into the right directions. In the last 2 weeks I made massive steps forward with my first ever module. You’ve helped to get my head round havascript and to understand it better. Thanks! End result can be found here.

  @justjim1220 const exec = require('child_process').exec var NodeHelper = require("node_helper") module.exports = NodeHelper.create({ socketNotificationReceived: function(noti, payload) { if (noti == "GIVE_ME_RESULT") { setTimeout(()=>{ exec("C:\WINDOWS\system32\get-temperature", //I don't know WINDOWS system at all. Is it right? (err, sto, ste) => { if (!err) { this.sendSocketNotification("HERE_IS_RESULT", sto) } else { console.log("Error", err) } } ) }, 1000) } } }) It isn’t tested. But you can catch the idea.

  UPDATE Weird thing. in RPI (model 3 B+ / Raspbian Stretch), in getDom() I rendered belows; < iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8CdcCD5V-d8" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen>< /iframe> This works. but < audio src="test.mp3" > < iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8CdcCD5V-d8" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen>< /iframe> This doesn’t work often. but I don’t know why and when. When audio tag exists before youtube, 100% failed. When after, sometime worked, sometime didn’t. I suspect Electron(Chromium) on RPI cannot handle multi-sound output. I’m rebuilding my MMM-AssistantMk2 more stable, lighter and independent from some annoying dependencies, but I’m stuck on this. I’m even considering to drop youtube features from module if I cannot solve this problem. (But who cares… )

  I resolved it by implementing a updateBoard function that checks if tables has been rendered and if just updates the innerHTML of that div. Was great to read ANOTHER WAY TO CONTROL OUTPUT in the beginners KB, https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/8534/head-first-developing-mm-module-for-extreme-beginners

  As I know, there is no callback or notification when getDom is executed. However, if you want to catch the changing of the output of the specific module, you can use MutationObserverin your module.

  @ninjabreadman++ Thank you again for your reply, I will review the MM on the pi0w with the dir name the same as the Module.register(). That said, if this is truly the issue, wouldn’t the same issue persist when booting up the electron app locally on my mac? re loader.js error that appears to be coming from MagicMirror/js/loader.js which appears to be failing to load my MMM-my-module.js file AFAIK

  The MPG2 license I most probably needed in order to be able to stream the satellite TS stream. With the codec disabled, I am still able to play the .mov and .mp4 files. In general the rule applies: when you can play / stream a source using omxplayer from the command-line, you should be able to play that source via MM (as long as the module used passes the right omxplayer parameters). If you want to pursue the issue further, you can add the --genlog parameter in order to generate the omxplayer.log file: cd /MagicMirror/modules/MMM-RTSPStream $ vi node_helper.js Edit line 113: args.unshift("--genlog", "--avdict", "rtsp_transport:tcp"); Restart MM. $ ls -als /home/pi/MagicMirror/omxplayer.log Perhaps this log will reveal why the file does not play.

  In the early days of MagicMirror, i got a module, that was able to fetch data from OpenHAB and displays it in place (instead of the compliment section) If the string is empty, the comments won’t be hided. Is it possible to bring this to the current version of MagicMirror? https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Dom1n1c/Smartmirror/master/js/openhab/openhab.js
