Magic mirror serving multiple clients

@cowboysdude take a look at https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-syslog-slave thats the only thing were I connected multiple instances

This sound cool. But your need depends on how you want to interact with multiple instaces.

• One master MM with multiple non-interactive slaves:
  • Just open browser on new device and point to master MM IP, and expand to full-screen
• One master MM with multiple, one-at-the-time interactive slaves:
  1. Need some hardware hacking: try to find a way to connect several PIR, microphone to multiple monitors, could be over cable, wifi or bluetooth. (Seem hard and ugly to implement)
  2. Implement some kind of HDMI switching mechanism
• One master MM with multiple, all-independent interactive slaves:
  • Do what’s described above with using mm1,mm2,mm3,.... This surely would eventually overload a RPi, as you add different and concurrent modules.

@strawberry-3.141 Thank you! @zack949 there’s a way to run one as master and others as slave… look at the response from strawberry :)

Bonjour avec mon Français je voudrait savoir si vous avez réussi a conclure le multiple clients sur un pi, peut on échanger des informations pour que je reproduise le mème serveur sur deux poste client Merci Serge

@serge-cherpy the only way to do this would be to set up a pi as a master and the rest as slaves…ie

one pi running your main mirror at [for example] 192.168.1.2:8080 [master]
Then running another pi and opening up a browser to 192.168.1.2:8080 [slave]

Is one way to do it. I don’t do it that way because all my mirrors do different things and have different purposes.

Bathroom mirror is an actual mirror
alarm clock mirror is a 10" touch panel that functions as an alarm clock
32" inch mirror is a home automation mirror

But the above method master->slave would work providing you have them all on the same network… if you wanted to run master on one network and the slave on another that would take more work :)
