  @sdetweil No worries, bro. I appreciate your interest and concern. I’m sure I’ll need help in the future. You can get in on that.

  Hey, I’m trying this again. I’ve wrote another post earlier this year, but it did not help me. What I’m trying to do is to change the language of the mirror on the fly. So have two pages, one in English, one in Polish and then change them every x seconds. Modules on both would be the same. This would also need to apply to stock modules, such as clock etc. Difficulty: Is there a way to do this w/o having to refresh the page every x seconds? There’s a ton of toggle/carousel/hide modules for modules, but they don’t help: if a module is hidden and shown, it’s config is not reloaded. Thanks for any help.

  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
