@sdetweil
Thanks again for getting back to me!Do you believe it will be possible for me to submit an entry to a database using the nodehelper.js file?
I am currently trying to find an example but I am unsure of any which are available?
-
@jcleary05 sure… I use mongodb, and connect to it via the node helper
here is a web page that describes all the operations (connect, search/get/select,

@lavolp3 Sorry man just seeing your message now,
Thank you! this will be extremely helpful! -
@jcleary05 sorry, forgot to paste in the url

Just reviewing your modules, they look great! in particular I may have a use case for the keyboard, do you have an estimation when it will be ready to use?

@jcleary05 also see https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/8734/mmm-mysqlquery-module-just-released
for connection and query…

Also guys, when creating the initial content of the module, will it have to be built using the document objet model or will I be able to bring in a HTML page and edit it using the DOM? Unsure of where to kick of from
you can use the element.innerHTML value to inject a raw html text block into that element
-
@jcleary05 the module is contributing a small section of html, ONLY its content… the overall page is managed by MM…
the getDom() method returns the small dom tree to inject into the page… in the position element of the page…
see my sample module https://github.com/sdetweil/SampleModule
if u look at ~/MagicMirror/index.html, you will see the page layout
each module is placed into one of those regions.
if you use the developers window (ctrl-shift-i) and select the elements tab. you can see the modules output in place
