Best way to display recipe
-
Hi, my MM is actually a kitchen display. Currently it is showing calendar, weather, news, nests, and background images. I’m looking for the best way to shutdown current modules and display a recipe full screen. My first thought was to send the web page link via MagicRemote and use pages to switch to a page that would only show the page in an iframe. However, it looks like most pages don’t like to be displayed in iframe. Second thought was to save page as an image, and have MM look for a file in remote location and if it finds it, close other modules and display the image. Has anyone done something like this already, or have a suggestion for a better approach?
Thanks!

you might look at MMM-Recipe by @cowboysdude
I am currently using for my Kitchen MM display (not mirrored)

@justjim1220 thank you, I just looked at it again. I thought it was pulling a daily menu from somewhere, not a way of displaying a specific recipe. Where do the recipes come from?

If you were to do this you could use any module that can display an image file. There are several. You could then use one of the voice modules to hide all other modules and display just the module that displays the image

@mykle1 Great, thanks, I’ll take a look at the voice modules and see what I can come up with. I also just found MMM-ImageFileWatcher which looks like it may do a lot of what I was looking for.
