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

[BluP]

@snille

Hi snille,

Have you ever found a solution? I want to do something similar, but was also not able to get a module to be hidden/shown during certain times using MMM-ModuleScheduler

I tried

{notification: 'REMOTE_ACTION', schedule:  '*/2 * * * MON-FRI', payload: {action: "SHOW&module=module_15_MMM-Traffic"}},
                                
{notification: 'REMOTE_ACTION', schedule:  '1-59/2 * * * MON-FRI', payload: {action: "HIDE&module=module_15_MMM-Traffic"}}

Does not make real sense, switching on a module every other minute, but would have been nice for testing…

If I use this as a GET request via HTTP,

http://My_MM_IP:8080/remote?action=HIDE&module=module_16_MMM-Traffic

it works like charm…also curl works using another Raspi sending this command to the MM

Any idea?

Thanks, Peter

@paulb

Is your device listed in “whitelist”, in your config.js?

Please check forum on whitelist issues.

@jopyth in light of topic resurrection, I’m looking into creating multiple functions for my pi’s. I’m using MMM-NetworkScanner and MMM-Remote-Control. The idea is like follows:

When I leave home, my mobile goes offline from home network. I’m looking for a command to enable camera (reboot y/n) to enable another project I’d like to combine with this. (Pi Camera Notifier: https://iotbreaks.com/build-a-camera-alert-application-with-raspberrypi-3-and-iosandroid-pushbullet-app/) turning it into a security cam. The commands available in the readme of MMM-RC didnt hand me a clue for further investigations

I’d love to see these work in conjunction that’d give it a whole new dimension :)

Same error as above but in English. Def restarts MM with no issue but MM RM displays error oddly?

[robiv8]

Nobody an idea?
Now the notification does not work anymore! Somehow I have the feeling that this block any other modules.
You can send but it does not matter! Also no error message.

@Jopyth What Happen? and how to solve it?

[robiv8]

I have the impression that Jopyth does not have time to maintain the module. Last answer here was 9 months ago.
Too bad, is an excellent module

@jopyth I’ve done the Italian translation if you would like to add it. ;)
