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

[in_a_days]

@AlessandroRa said in MMM-Remote-Control:

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

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.

Mike

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

@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?
