Introducing MMM-Shairportsync-color: A New Module for Music Lovers! 🎵

Hello MagicMirror enthusiasts!

I’m excited to share a new module I initially created for myself but now want to put out there for the community. If you have any ideas or feedback, I’d love to hear them!

What is MMM-Shairportsync-color?

MMM-Shairportsync-color is a MagicMirror module inspired by MMM-OnSpotify. While I loved the concept of dynamically theming the mirror based on the music playing, I wanted to create a similar experience for non-Spotify users.

Visuals of MMM-Shairportsync-color in Action

Here’s a glimpse of how the module dynamically themes your MagicMirror based on the currently playing music:

Here’s the backstory:
I grew tired of the ads on Spotify’s free version, so I decided to migrate my entire music library locally. I set up a Navidrome server to manage my music, and I use Shairport to stream and play it on my MagicMirror.

However, I really missed the visual theming and dynamic ambiance that MMM-OnSpotify provides. That’s when I decided to create this module: MMM-Shairportsync-color. It fills the gap for those of us who prefer to play our music locally and stream it via Shairport, while still enjoying the stunning visual theming based on the music we love.

How Does It Work?

MMM-Shairportsync-color works by extracting the color palette from the album art of the currently playing music and dynamically applying the colors to theme your MagicMirror. It brings your mirror to life by syncing its visuals with your music, making it an immersive experience!

Here are some of its features:

Album Art Integration: The module analyzes the album art of the music you’re playing using Shairport. Dynamic Theming: Extracts a six-color palette from the album art and applies it to your MagicMirror theme. Seamless Integration: Built to complement MagicMirror setups for users with local music libraries. Inspiration: Takes its cues from MMM-OnSpotify but is designed for those who don’t rely on Spotify or streaming services. Why I Built This

I built this module to give non-Spotify users the same dynamic theming experience that MMM-OnSpotify provides. Many of us love personalizing our MagicMirror setups, and I wanted to ensure that local music lovers had something special to enhance their setups as well.

Now, anyone using Shairport to stream music can enjoy a visually engaging experience on their MagicMirror, all while staying ad-free!

How to Get Started

You can find the project and all the setup instructions on GitHub:

Shoutout and Acknowledgments

Big thanks to the creator of MMM-OnSpotify for the inspiration behind this module. It’s always amazing to see how open-source projects can inspire others to build and share new ideas.

I hope you find MMM-Shairportsync-color useful and fun to use. If you’ve been playing music on your MagicMirror but wanted something more engaging, this module is for you!

Hi everyone, created this module MMM-Hevy to show strength training muscle split and worked out days of the current week from Hevy workout App.

Hevy is a free weight lifting workout tracker that lets athletes log their workouts, analyze progress.

Note: At the moment, you will need a paid subscription to Hevy to use this module. The free version does not provide an API key to access the data.

To grab an API key: visit https://hevy.com/settings?developer and Generate a new API key.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions or suggestions. Feel free to leave a star on the repo if you are enjoying this module.

Thank you.

@tintinmaster if you read description you can find this topic. You can deactivate it separate for every Network. At least i have no issues to keep my mac address in my home wifi.

@dawookie1979 seems like the same issue as posted a week ago: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/18972/mmm-soccerlivescore-not-displayed-since-today/10

In the past, I have used Todoist and the module here: https://github.com/cbrooker/MMM-Todoist

Looks like this module has recently been updated, so I’d imagine it still works. Checkout Todoist and let us know if this module achieves what you need!

EDIT* Me going to the the Github page and at the top of the page it says: " ** Developer is not actively maintaining this Extension. ** " so this may be hit or miss

Description:

Hi everyone! MMM-TheSpaceDevs is a module that displays upcoming rocket launch data from TheSpaceDevs API in either a table view or a detail view. This is my first MagicMirror Module and this project is still very much a work in progress but all the basics are present.

The table view columns are not currently configurable but I plan to update that in the future.

The detail view displays an image of the rocket, status of the launch, orbit, rocket name and company name, a count down timer to launch which transitions T + time after launch as well as a description of the mission.

Its important to note that TheSpaceDevs API is free for up to 15 calls per hour before it gets throttled. If you use both the table and detail views at the same time you will be making an API call for each view. As a result, change your updateInterval accordingly so that you stay within range unless you are paying for increased API access.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions or suggestions. I will be working on updating this module when I have time (maybe a couple of times a week). Also feel free to leave a star on the repo if you are enjoying this module. Thanks guys!

Bonjour,
je suis à la recherche d’une astuce pour utiliser des liens cliquables sur le module GoogleSheets.
Sur GoogleSheets, j’ai ajouté le module pour y faire figurer mes recettes de cuisine pour la semaine et j’aimerai cliquer directement sur un lien ouvrant la recette de cuisine pour suivre la recette.

Auriez vous une astuce svp ?

Je vous remercie.

@imdickie said

The title seems to ignore the forced maxWidth. Is there any way to force the title to align to the body?!

I’ve had this issue before
try the developer view in a browser to see your options
the default settings doesn’t prohibit you

It didn’t accomplish what I wanted, but I can see you did send me down the right path. I’ll do some investigating some Custom CSS statements.

Thanks.

Thanks for sharing your module!!

@dawookie1979 You can try my module MMM-soccer.
See the link :backhand_index_pointing_down_light_skin_tone: in my signature.

@Alexjons see the recipes folder in the module folder… far as I know that is the only doc

@soldatino okay, I think it’s because you are using a different username it’s breaking. I will try to add the config options to set the files path in the coming days, for now just check you nodehelper of MMM-Chat.js line 21 and let me know if that helps. You will have to set it to your correct absolute path. Cheers.

Recently I came across this awesome module MMM-OpenAI, I have posted earlier with a short demo and YouTube link for the full demo. and I decided to do something fun, I was not expecting it to turn out this way, I have detailed the step by step instructions in the GitHub to set this up, Iam not from a technical background therefore the codes are not really polished and there maybe issues but I tried by best to be thorough in the instructions as much as possible, I’m sure someone else will come up with better idea to implement this, here is the link Drunk AI repo
At the moment it’s quite slow and it will get faster will more enhancements

Detailed instructions:
Drunk-AI

This is an integration of OPENAI chatgpt in the magicmirror. Demo below watch the full demo here ([https://youtu.be/eDcc7zqAFwE]) This is the initial version, I am not from a technical background therefore if the codes and scripts are little off the charts or there is a way to enhance it feel free to send PR. I admit this is quite messy and little long process to set up but in the end its worth it.

Download the shortcuts linked below and configure it with the api key from MMM-RemoteControl
more info here ([https://github.com/Jopyth/MMM-Remote-Control.git])

ios shortcuts link

([https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/8a0e7600808d45eb9616dae8105653ef])

EDIT THE DOWNLOADED SHORTCUT with your magicmirror ip address AND REPLACE apikey in the text with your api key from MMM-RemoteControl. you need to run this shortcuts every time you want to interact with the chatgpt, or you can use the default telegram commands but that is without voice input, hotword detection will be added soon. When you run this shortcuts, the mirror with update with jarvis animation and text saying “say something”, you have to speak in the microphone after you see Say something and if the audio was captured successfully, it will update with the spoken text. the listening duration is set to 4 seconds by default, you can adjust this by editing the transcript.py in the MMM-Chat module mentioned below. Install and configure MMM-Chat from here ([ https://github.com/sdmydbr9/MMM-Chat]) Install MMM-NotificationTrigger ([https://github.com/MMRIZE/MMM-NotificationTrigger.git]) Add the following lines to the config { module: 'MMM-NotificationTrigger', config: { triggers: [ { trigger: 'SHOW_ALERT', fires: [ { fire: 'MY_COMMAND', exec: (payload) => `python3 /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-11-TTS/main.py "${payload.message}"` } ] } ] } }, Install MMM-OpenAI from here ([https://github.com/MMRIZE/MMM-OpenAI.git])

Add the following in your config

{ module: "MMM-OpenAI", position: 'top_right', config: { defaultChatInstruction: "Your name is Marvin and you are a paranoid android that reluctantly answers questions with sarcastic responses.", stealth: true, // <- This is needed to hide default module view. postProcessing: function (handler, responseObj) { if (responseObj.error) return // When the error happens, just do nothing. let method = responseObj.options.method let alertPayload = { title: responseObj.request.prompt, imageUrl: (method === 'IMAGE') ? responseObj.response.data[0].url : null, message: (method === 'TEXT') ? responseObj.response.choices[0].text : ((method === 'CHAT') ? responseObj.response.choices[0].message.content : null), timer: 2 * 1000 } handler.sendNotification('SHOW_ALERT', alertPayload) } } }, Clone the following respository ([https://github.com/sdmydbr9/MMM-11-TTS]) in your modules folder and install it according to instruction edit the main.py and add your api key and voice id, a voice id as already set by default, you can add any voice id, refer elevenlabs api doc for more details. Disclaimer: Even though the quality of the output of their voice is far superior to GOOGLE TTS, the character limit is very limited, 10,000 characters per month per account, I hope they will offer more in future, or you can opt for a paid account and get around 30,000 characters as well as voice cloning features, clone any voice you want, for example clone the voice of jarvis and transform your magicmirror into jarvis. just add the voice ID in the main.py and youre good to go. Disclaimer 2: The above module works in my test but it is not very efficient since the script will first downlaod the audio from the api request and convert it using fmpeg and play the audio as output. Depends on fmpeg. Install it if you dont have it installed using apt This whole implementation maybe possible to be implemented in a single module, I hope someone will try to make this in a single module and less messy

Hello everyone,

I just want to let you know that I’ve managed to develop a new module that displays details about a specific NFT collection: name, image, count, and progress bar.

magicMirror2.png

It uses the Alchemy API to fetch data from the blockchain and Opensea and all you need is the API KEY from Alchemy and the contract address of the collection you want to follow.

Once the count reaches the max number of tokens the status is changed to ‘Sold out’ and you can track another collection.

More details about the installation and config can be found on the github repo: https://github.com/TemianMihai/MMM-NFTcollections

Please let me know what you think about it and provide some feedback!

Kind regards,
Mihai

@sdetweil I am thankful, i will try it
