Earth globe

So I made a small test here:
[card:LukeSkywalker92/MMM-Globe]

so I could easily make the image update every x minutes and make configs for image-size and image-style just by changing the image-path.

@LukeCodewalker wow that’s great! i will test it tonight :) noob question : is it ok to git clone your files anywhere or it should be located in MM modules folder?

[LukeCodewalker]

@bibi I think you have to clone it to the modules folder. otherwise MagicMirror won’t find it. Just do it the normal way.

small preview =)

I’ll have to write a readme, then I’m done.
If you want to use a custom picture you just have to put your link in the config file and the module automatically uses this image.

@LukeCodewalker wow! you made a great job here! thx alot for your time/work/involvment!

@bibi this code utilizes WebGL which brings RPI to its knees. You can run the MM on a different more powerful hardware, though. As for the module, I have got a POC working on my dev box with a sample data.

Yes I am also leaning heavy on creating a bigger mirror running on a much more powerful board.

Can’t decide if I want to use a mini pc or itx board…

@alexyak which is your dev box if i may ask?
