Simple Music Player Module

@KirAsh4 Amen to that

@EoF I saw a guy posted on reddit his magic mirror with voice control (he is using this build of MM). He posted this link for how he set up the voice activation part:

https://howchoo.com/g/yti5mmq0ntu/add-voice-controls-to-your-raspberry-pi-using-jasper

don’t know if this helps, but maybe worth looking at. It would definitely be cool to say “MM Play Classic Rock” and it loads up.

Also, is it possible to, instead of loading all the music on the pi itself, have it stream from a pandora/spotify type site?

EoF

@MechMatt Alright cool I can take a look at it.

As far as the steaming goes, you may want to check out PtrBld’s module. He has streaming working in his module.

I may look into building a new module that uses Pandora in the future.

@EoF have you been able to use the reflective film and still retain the touch ability on your screen?

If so what kind are you using. I’m looking at using the same type that you can find for car window tinting.

@nobiryu Hello! Please see this post.

I am experiencing a black blank screen after installing the music player code. Here is my code

Loading config ...
Loading module helpers ...
No helper found for module: alert.
No helper found for module: clock.
Initializing new module helper ...
No helper found for module: compliments.
No helper found for module: mm-music-player.
No helper found for module: currentweather.
No helper found for module: weatherforecast.

Starting server op port 8080 ... 
Server started ...
Connecting socket for: calendar
Starting node helper for: calendar
Connecting socket for: newsfeed
Starting module: newsfeed
Sockets connected & modules started ...
Launching application.

I’ve only customized the calendar so far, haven’t messed with the other modules just yet. Anyone know what I’m doing wrong?

Edit from admin: Please use Markdown on shell output so it is easier to read!

@denalove I got it, found the solution. I added the module to the defaultmodules.js file and it didn’t need to be there.

@denalove Happy to hear it, hope you enjoy the module :)

Would you be able to pull files from a server using this module? What would I need to do to change that?
