      Wanted to added hardware buttons to hide and show modules to be specified. I added the MMM-Buttons module and the required Remote Control module. I used the sample scripts to my config.js. Ran config:check which passed. I have pasted the screen output below, the first error am getting is the [108081:0916/150400.265788:ERROR:gbm_wrapper.cc(74)] Failed to get fd for plane.: No such file or directory (2) but have no idea where to head, any suggestions appreciated. Thank you

        @sdetweil Yeah you’re right, that one might be more difficult. But I do have MMM-ModuleToggleButton working with pinctrl. Here’s the updated node_helper.js file just in case anyone’s interested.

        node_helper.js

        const NodeHelper = require('node_helper'); // eslint-disable-line import/no-extraneous-dependencies
        //const Gpio = require('onoff').Gpio;
        const { exec } = require("child_process");
        
        module.exports = NodeHelper.create({
          start() {
            this.started = false;
          },
        
          socketNotificationReceived(notification, payload) {
            if (notification === 'TOGGLE_BUTTON_CONFIG' && !this.started) {
              const self = this;
              this.config = payload;
        
              //const button = new Gpio(this.config.buttonGpioPin, 'in', 'both', { persistentWatch: true, debounceTimeout: this.config.debounceTimeoutInMilliseconds });
              //button.watch((err, state) => {
              //  if (state === 1) {
              //    self.sendSocketNotification(self.config.notificationName, true);
              //  }
              //});
        
              //this.started = true;
              
              // Set up GPIO as input using pinctrl command
              const pin = this.config.buttonGpioPin;
              const debounceTimeout = this.config.debounceTimeoutInMilliseconds;
              const notificationName = this.config.notificationName;
              let lastState = null;
        
              // Function to read the pin state using pinctrl
              const checkPinState = () => {
              exec(`pinctrl get ${pin}`, (err, stdout, stderr) => {
                if (err) {
                  console.error(`Error reading GPIO state: ${err.message}`);
                  return;
                }
               
                // Parse the pin state from stdout
                const state = stdout.includes("hi") ? 1 : 0;
        
                // Handle state change with debounce
                if (state !== lastState && state === 1) {
                  this.sendSocketNotification(notificationName, true);
                }
               
                // Update last state
                lastState = state;
              });
              };
        
            // Set up an interval to check the pin state with debounce
            setInterval(checkPinState, debounceTimeout || 100); // Defaults to 100ms if debounce is not defined
              
            }
          }
        });

          that is a garbage message from electron we can’t suppress

          @awwbaker said in Problem Adding Buttons & required Remote-Control Modules:
          this is all from MMM-RemoteControl loading the modules JS file in a different context than was intended… its not fatal

              did you test to make sure the buttons work outside MM?

                it seems that the MMM-Jast module is throwing the error:

                  @MarcLandis its because MagicMirror-remote-control is doing a require() on the module js

                    I tested my button press using:

                    import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
                    import time

                    GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
                    GPIO.setup(6, GPIO.IN, pull_up_down=GPIO.PUD_UP)

                    while True:
                    input_state = GPIO.input(6)
                    if input_state == False:
                    print(‘Button Pressed’)
                    time.sleep(0.2)

                    That worked fine. I found the module MMM-ModuleToggleButton which seemed a bit simpler and directly what wanted to do. The demo script used GPIO 6 so used default. Do i need to use a pull_down resister? Thank Thank you again! VR Anthony

                    PS: Sam I looked for a link to buy you a cup of coffee, not found, but if you have one, please forward?

                            Dear Mr @sdetweil
                            I think you are teaching me to fish…Did you see the error message below? Beyond the below, I booted the RPI 3B+, ran the “pinctrl set 6 op dl” command. Started MM and as previously the expected modules were hidden on start up. Pressing pushbutton did not have any affect on the display. I ran the button.py script and the button was sensed as previous. As your time permits I could use another push. Your efforts are VERY appreciated. VR Anthony Baker

                                Please see above, it seems “on-off” is throwing errors. It seems it is used by Remote-Control-Modules as well as Buttons. I wnet back and tried buttons. The error is below: Thank you very much. Anthony

                                  the os has changed how this needs to be done
                                  i posted a link to suggestions on how to resolve it without code changes

                                  the Log not found is caused by the remotecontrol module

                                        @sdetweil Sorry have been on travel last several weeks. No I never did. I have the remote control module in and working just never could not get the button push. I have mmm-GroveGesture installed and working with sensor. Still working towards getting modules to hide and show. Could I ask another question???

                                        What can/should I do on this?:

                                          @awwbaker remote control is loading the main js from other modules, but in the wrong runtime context.

                                          i don’t know why it is doing that

                                              Hi guys, I’ve been trying to figure this out too. I think I’m close with these two files using ‘pinctrl’ instead of ‘/sys/class/gpio/’ but I can’t figure out what I’m missing.

                                              Based on the console log it looks like there’s an issue in my node_helper file, possible with the socketNotification functions because I’m not seeing any of my test messages.

                                              And based on the log files there may be something missing from the package.json file because sometimes I get this error “Error: Cannot find module ‘node helper’ MODULE_NOT_FOUND” but other times I don’t. And I tried running this fix but couldn’t get it to work.
                                              [https://forum.magicmirror.builders/user/jorickjuh](link url)

                                              Other than that I’m not seeing any other errors and module does appear to be working but it’s just not processing any button presses. I’ll keep trying but I’ll post my progress so far on here in case someone can see what I’m missing.

                                              test file:

                                              Module.register("MMM-PinToggleTest", {

                                                  pin: 19,
                                                  modulesToToggle: ["clock", "calendar"],
                                                  interval: 1000
                                                },
