[Remote-Control] Shutdown, Configure and Update your MagicMirror

AAPS

My ip address starts with 192.168 too, but now that I try to change everything back, it doesn’t work.

AAPS

Everything is fine. I will figure things out later. Thank you! @lolobyte

Are there any more problems with the Remote Control module? I want it perfect since my mirror will be a gift. If there are any more issues, what are they?

@AAPS

see my last post in this part of the forum.

If someone still has issues with the IP whitelist, please check this thread. For the other issues, if someone has clean steps to reproduce them, please post here or on the github issues linked in that post.

Hello,

I’m building my first MagicMirror. I tried to add MMM-Remote_Control, and have it showing the website on my MagicMirror that would be used to access the MMM-Remote-Control. The only problem is once I go to the website it says “This device is not allowed to access your mirror. Please check your config.js or config.js.sample to change this.” I am not sure how to know whether I am not running with ‘sudo’ rights like noted in the README.md

@febreezey NVM!! I changed my ipwhitelist in my config.js like lolobyte noted. Works perfectly now!

@lolobyte said in MMM-Remote-Control:

Hi all,

it works.

That is my part of config with the ipwhitelist.
    ipWhitelist: [
                    "127.0.0.1",
                    "::ffff:127.0.0.1",
                    "::1",
                    "::ffff:192.168.1.1/24",
            ],
hope it will help all other user.

It works, and it’s awesome!!
Now, time for a stupid question: since I’m building a touch screen smart mirror, can I run the remote menu on an iFrame? I want to be able to manage the modules and shut down the mirror when I’m not using it

I just tried to use the “Hello World” module, but that’s what I’ve got

You might find this module more useful for your particular build. I don’t think it features power and restart buttons yet, but that will be a pretty simple addition.

@in_a_days thank you, I tried that module and I really liked it! But I’m not really a good programmer so it would be complicate for me to add new icons for every module.
Also, I don’t know why, with this module on, the Hide/show all module disappeared. How can I fix it?

Hi,
very nice module!
one day it might be remote configurator for a mirror.
You could do a querry for all installed modules and create a simple drag and drop interface for putting modules in their places of a screen and then regenerate mirror config file.

I hope you will do it one day.

Hi @Jopyth
Awesome module!

A couple of questions - how can I use it to enable-disable MMM-PIR-Sensor?

Is it possible to use it to disable/enable certain aspects of a module?
e.g.: for the newsfeed, i’d like to switch on/off certain feeds

TIA

Hi!
Thank you for this great module!
I’m thinking it would be good to have menu entry for the “logs”.
Basically just “display” the logs (maybe last 100 lines) of the ~/.pm2/logs/mm* files.
What do you say? :)

Best regards Snille

Jopyth

@Snille I like the idea, will probably add this to my “want to do” features.

Also, I decided to release all the stuff I have worked on as version 1.1.0, some of it is still experimental, but I put a (hopefully) clear warning before you can mess up your config.

[1.1.0] - 2017-01-26

Added

First version of installer script
Menu to send Alerts and/or Notifications to your mirror
Menu to update your MagicMirror installation and your modules (through git pull)
Menu to change the config.js
- Modules can be installed, added, removed, configured
- There will be backups of the five last versions of the config.js in the config folder
- Some of these parts are hidden behind an “exprimental” warning, do not ignore that warning
NOTIFICATION action, see README.md for details

Changed

Menu structure
- Old “Edit” and “Settings” are now under “Edit view”
Smaller font sizes in lists

Fixed

Issues coming from disabled modules since MM version 2.1.0

Well done for getting the update out!

Can’t wait to give it a try.

Loving the update so far. But I’m experiencing a couple small bugs. On re-boot I am losing my active/hidden module settings. I get the “Done” confirmation after Saving, but on reboot it’s showing all modules rather than just the ones I had active. I’m also getting “! Error!” when I attempt Power > Restart MagicMirror2.

Remote-Control is one of my favs. Happy to check some logs anything that may help isolate the problem.

Is it worth updating? I have been excited for this update, but I have waited to see if it would be better than the previous version. Since it appears that some people experience bugs, I might just stay with the version I have. Is this a smart choice?

@in_a_days Funny I also got that bug on the previous remote version, after updating to MM v2.1 . If I´m rebooting the MM or Power Off and starting it later, all changes of visible Modules are gone. So basically i tested some modules and later hide them cause i don´t want to delete them from the config, or just show them when i need some of them. It´s not a big deal, just saying.
