How do all of you controle (/interact with) your MagicMirror modules?

@mykle1 When the time comes I will do that!
First I want the “normal” modules I want to be added to my mirror config and have them working.

Ok, I’ll take a look at your post right now. I’m in NYC, for the record.

IM using MQTT to hook up my mirror to HomeAssistant and apples HomeKit-app. This way I automize screen shut-down every evening but also makes it available to the rest of the family.
I’ve created a simple module to interact with already existing modules using the notification system
An early version here: https://github.com/fhansa/MMM-mqttCommand

A couple of shameless plugs for my own modules:

Title	Description
MMM-KeyBindings	A module for getting bluetooth remote control and keyboard inputs
MMM-OnScreenMenu	Simple On-Screen Menu for controlling the MagicMirror²
MMM-AlexaOnOff	Simple Mirror Control from External Home Assistant (Alexa/Google Home/HASS.io)

In addition, I’m currently working on a new version of MMM-Remote-Control with a RESTful API – Which is an extension/combination of the original MMM-Remote-Control and MMM-Api modules. See details on the API here. It will allow you to control the mirror with simple URL calls like: http://magicmirror:8080/api/monitor/off to turn off the screen.

The end goal is to get rid of duplicate functionality in all of my modules (like exposing external routes, turning on/off the monitor, showing/hiding modules, etc.) and use API calls or Module Notifications for controlling everything, plus allow other modules to customize and integrate their own API.

This part is still an active work in progress, but if anyone is interested in testing, please let me know.

Here comes an unashamed developer. :D

• MMM-AssistantMk2 : Embedded Google Assistant, you can make custom voice command to control MM, it’s module and your system.
• MMM-Hotword : Simple voice hotword detection engine - snowboy implements.
• MMM-GroveGestures : 3D sensor for gesture recognition.
• MMM-TelegramBot : You can interact with your MM via Telegram.
• MMM-NotificationTrigger : It has a webhook gateway to request from external Web API(e.g; IFTTT) to deliver MM notification (You need Static IP/domain or DDNS or at least SSH tunnel)
