@Kelemvor - If you’re looking for a project for a 1st generation Pi, a Pi-Hole to remove web advertisements and tracking links is an easy project.

@jimb said in Modifying the Config File:

IP Config from the OS prompt on the Pi yields -
“Link/loopback 'all zeros…”
“inet 127.0.0.0/8 scope host lo”

This should be the first entry of three in the response when you enter ip addr. The next entry should be your ethernet port, and the final entry should be your wireless LAN. My suggestion is to try this on your pi: ip addr | grep inet

Secondly, when Sam told you to switch on SSH, did you go into the config app and do it? You can get to it from the desktop but the fastest way is to type sudo raspi-config and then navigate to “Interface Options”->“SSH”. Make sure it is enabled.

@1a2a3a - One of the modules that I maintain is MMM-WeatherBackground. It will put a background image on your mirror and change it up according to what your weather app forecasts.

I find that the key feature is the ability to set the transparency of the background image. That way you can adjust how much of the background image is present vs the reflection that you see.

@sdetweil Wasn’t sure if the Windows install was working properly. Thought I saw in one of your recent posts that it wasn’t working properly. My bad…

@mezcalbomb If you have a windows machine I would suggest running Ubuntu on it and install MM in there to test what you want and how you want it all setup etc.

@KristjanESPERANTO My MMM-SweepClock doesn’t have a package.json either as all work done in the MMM-SweepClock.js file. I can add one for completeness and conformity. I also notice I did not have an image. I usually name my images image-1.png etc. so the main image is generally the first one.

@KristjanESPERANTO Stats were great, fixed most of the issues identified in my modules. Majority package.json issues.

Great work @KristjanESPERANTO

@KristjanESPERANTO Looks good. Just out of interest, which image does it select as the thumbnail? Just noticed 2 of the modules of mines does not have the correct images. Both Growatt modules are the ones I am referring to.

@sifuhall Hi,

I think it might be already possible with my MMM-ValuesByNotification module.

If you need a module to fetch the data you can use a curl command with my MMM-CommandToNotification.

If you can send the data via MQTT you can use MMM-MQTTbridge.

@sdetweil What’s the CORS service in MM?
I see I have been away for a while…
