Hello I’m pretty new to MM. I love the weather feature because I like to go biking a lot and like to see if its a good day but I sometimes need to see what time its going to rain later in the day. I have tried to use WunderGround for hourly weather but that wasn’t working for me so I was wondering if anyone knew how to get hourly weather for OpenWeather and if not could help develop for it.

Hi All, Is there a way to install Pi Music box in the background, without having to put the whole image on my memory stick and overwrite what I’ve got for my MM? Or is it worth just putting Music box on first, then installing the mirror? I want to be able to play music through it as well as use it as a mirror. Thanks

Dear all, I love biking to work. Just not so much when it rains. Since it rains quite a bit where I live (the Netherlands), it would be very useful if I could simply look at the Magic Mirror to see when it will rain (and how much). I’m thinking of a module that displays graphs such as those being shown at e.g. http://forecast.io/lines/, in particular the ‘next hour’ one. Another example of such a graph can be found here: http://www.buienalarm.nl/location/utrecht (in Dutch) It is relatively easy to show radar maps such as those at http://www.buienradar.nl/ on the Magic Mirror. Unfortunately, these maps are in green and blue. Not the optimal colours for the magic mirror if you ask me. I don’t have the NodeJS/Javascript skills to create a module showing graphs showing the expected precipitation. Any suggestions where to start and/or help coding this module are most welcome!

There’s another option to use a cloud service from Microsoft https://www.microsoft.com/cognitive-services/en-us/face-api. It should be enough to have just one good picture of your student uploaded to the server. I’ve got a basic module working that uses these api’s, but it’s not at the stage that I can publish it for everybody yet. -Alex

Here’s what it should look like for you. [image: 1469383479468-nest.png]

+1 for this idea, not sure how hard it would be to do but I believe its in the .ical file.

Hello, is it possible to add to the forcast module an graphic forcast? Like on the homepage of openweathermap.org. I have seen this at a Blog. It looks very good, but I don´t know how to implement this to MM2.

Check out my DailyXKCD module. It seems to be what you’re looking for. [card:Blastitt/DailyXKCD]

A bit offtopic, but good to see you here, @AndreSchiretz! The perfect place to pitch you idea!

A location based night sky background for MagicMirror Using the SkyView APP(a location based augmented view of the night sky with stars and satellites) i was wondering how this could be made possible for MagicMirror. The idea is to make use of the MagicMirror’s black background with a layer of stars that are changing during the day depending on your location. The old way (time based): [image: day_and_night_wrist_watch.jpg] The new way (location based): [image: example2small.png] For example a nice looking Ref6. A few more examples of MagicMirror with use of online sky maps*: Example1 using the map of Ref1. Example2 using the map of Ref4. & Ref5. Example3 using the map of Ref2. Example4 using the map of Ref6. I’m sharing this to make this idea available using a module. *References used in examples: Location based online sky view maps Ref1. http://neave.com/planetarium/ Ref2. http://theskylive.com/planetarium#ra|8.113703391538692|dec|-14.419127710596998|fov|50 Ref3. http://www.astroviewer.com/night-sky-code.php?lon=4.89&lat=52.37&city=Amsterdam&tz=CET Ref4.

I have not started this yet, as I have been sick with pollen… However, when I investigated the size of a project like this, I saw that it should not be that complex to implement this as a plugin. I will start sometime after the summer I think. I have created a first draft/concept of this, if you want to experiment. :) You then need to implement the function `processResponse’, and maybe something more, IDK. https://github.com/sebastiw/PollenCountForMagicMirror

@Pfannerfranz It’s definitely possible. Just copy the compliments module into a new folder (outside of the default folder, and give it a new name (rename the folder, rename the .js file, and rename the module inside the .js file). You can now modify that module any way you want. By the way: welcome the community. Looking forward to your contributions.

Hello Programmers… I am looking for someone to take a look at Vivify Scrim. This is an Agile tool for planning and working with tasks etc. I am sure anyone in the IT field knows what I’m talking about. I would like to have a module that would display our current scrum cycle. There is an API so if someone would like to take a stab at it, I would be grateful.

I want to know wich MagicMirror module can be used to get temperature information from my Pimatic domotica system to the MagicMirror. (a few Pimatic users have MagicMirrors) For example this link can be used: http://demo:demo@demo.pimatic.org/api/variables/variable-set.temperature (buth will output all values) This script for example will pick the one value needed (Temperature: 14) <?php $curl = curl_init(); curl_setopt ($curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://demo:demo@demo.pimatic.org/api/variables/variable-set.temperature"); curl_setopt ($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); $result = curl_exec ($curl);// curl to a variable curl_close ($curl); $result = json_decode($result, true);// decode to associative array $result = $result['variable']['value'];//pick desired value print "Temperature: ".$result; ?>

@KirAsh4 Thanks for the quick response! I’ll take a look at the BUTTON module. Hopefully it’ll work the way I need it to. Fortunately, I only have 2 profiles I’ll need to cycle thru.

@monsieurpouet said in Module with Toshl API: (not me, I’m a really really bad developer) At some point, we were all bad developers. You have to start somewhere. Don’t be scared about it, just dive in. There are plenty of resources online that can help you, and there are several folks on here who can also give you a hand. Don’t underestimate yourself.

Hi… This can easily be accomplished with some javascript and css. No need to mess with hardware or anything. Edit: I guess I should actually read the post. You need a physical button. Disregard lol

Take a look here ;-)

@ascension, I moved your request to the modules request section so other module developers will see it.

I had the idea of using AirPlay instead of a spotify agent for my magic mirror. I have managed to install and successfully integrate this for my pi using this guide, http://drewlustro.com/hi-fi-audio-via-airplay-on-raspberry-pi/ Now I have music playing, I had the idea of having an interface showing what is currently playing. Any ideas on where to get started for this?
