How I got my Magic Mirror working on a Raspberry Pi 0 (zero)
-
@Wieber Thanks for the response wieber. Im actually using randombullets guide where he moves the file into the init.d folder.
Thing is i cant get MM to run the server and use a laptop to connect to the pi@8080 and it shows the mirror. I can also run the following commands via SSH to get the MM running on the pi!!! …but i cant AT ALL get the MM window up on the pi automatically using the shell scripts.
Its obviously running the server command as I can access via another computer on the network (which has access via ip whitelist in the config file)
I just need to know why none of the commands after node serveronly arent executing?

@Mar do you have access to a 16gb SD card or no? If not what size do you have/want to use.
-
@SebTota I currently have a 32 in there but the final im hoping will go on a 16 at least. Will the file you’re sending over be a clean first install for the zero?
-
@Mar it is an install or Raspbian lite with magic mirror for RPI zero. There is some other alterations but not much. Would you like me to share the file?
-
@SebTota Please I would appreciate that so much. Im on the verge of giving up and sticking with p3’s. I was really excited about being able to create a few mirrors with the cheaper board, so thanks again for sharing.
-
@Mar I’ll send you the link to the mega file download. You will have to unzip it and write the ISO file onto your SD card. I also have a version that has amazon Alexa built in but that takes a little bit of setup.
-
@SebTota Thanks so much!!! I’ll download it over night and try it in the morning and get back to you. Hopefully there is no difference between pi zeros?
-
@Mar I have shared it with someone else already and it worked completely fine. I have PM you the download link.
-
@SebTota Thats good to know, downloading now but its quite slow on mega for some reason. Will report back in the morning as its 2am here on a work night ;( though you saved me another night of hopeless tinkering lol
-
@SebTota Thanks somuch Seb everything works amazing!! I owe you a beer!
-
@Mar Not quite old enough to take you up on that offer yet. :) Really glad to hear that its working. Like I said if anyone needs the image of just the MagicMirror, MagicMirror with Alexa, and hopefully soon MagicMirror with Jasper AI just let me know and I can send you a link to my download.
-
@SebTota Great job with all these Seb! Suppose I’ll drink your beer for you right now ;) I’d love to give the AI one a chance once everything is up and running.

sorry for asking something that I can google, but I’m on lunch and trying to be quick. after I have everything up and running can I:
dd if=/dev/sdf of=/functioning_mm_image.isothat way I only have to fiddle with a few config options for the rest of the mirrors that I’m making?
-
@Wieber Thanks a lot for this tutorial! Now I have my Raspberry Pi 1 up and running with Magic mirror. … with some inspiration from https://maxkorlaar.com/post/?i=43&lang=en
I also added the functionality to have the monitor to shut down when no one is using the mirror i.e. during night and when no one is at home! :) -
@SebTota
Do you still have the image you can share? I’m struggling to follow the guide here… -
I tried to follow your guide (which is really well explained) but for some reason I´m having a few errors at the last step…Could you share your “Magic Mirror” only image with me please?

@Mar
Hi there,
I had the same problem and the I have realized that node serveronly was not launched.
The problem is that the command :
cd ~/MagicMirrorwas not working, so I have changed it for
cd /home/pi/MagicMirror
and that’s it.
Hope this can help -
OK, so i am trying this again on a Pi Zero W
I got stuck on Step 4
so I ran:sudo apt-get remove nodered sudo apt-get remove nodejs nodejs-legacy sudo apt-get remove npm # if you installed npm wget http://node-arm.herokuapp.com/node_archive_armhf.deb sudo dpkg -i node_archive_armhf.deb sudo apt-get install -y build-essential python-dev npmthen again on Step 5 i got a ton of these:
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ sudo npm install npm WARN engine feedme@1.0.0: wanted: {"node":">=0.12"} (current: {"node":"0.10.29","npm":"1.4.21"}) npm WARN engine grunt-eslint@19.0.0: wanted: {"node":">=4"} (current: {"node":"0.10.29","npm":"1.4.21"}) npm WARN engine request@2.81.0: wanted: {"node":">= 4"} (current: {"node":"0.10.29","npm":"1.4.21"}) npm WARN engine eslint@3.17.1: wanted: {"node":">=4"} (current: {"node":"0.10.29","npm":"1.4.21"})Are the updated steps or an Image that can be downloaded?
