Touchscreen Family Dashboard
-
Some fun updates made over the past 2 weeks, all in my git for anyone interested. Code might be specific to my use, but could be adaptable: https://github.com/tjat84
MMM-ScreenSaver: After a period of inactivity, this module pulls the photo that would otherwise appear in the MMM-GooglePhotos module and bounces it around the darkened screen. Will turn off when the touchscreen is pressed.
MMM-SystemOptions: Displays a drop-down option menu that allows the user to send MMM-RemoteControl notifications straight from the dashboard (e.g refresh screen, minimize window, reboot, shut down, and activate screensaver if available)
MMM-InfoPage: Loads as a collapsed module in the bottom left of the screen. The user then swipes up to expand and displays information my category. I’m using it to display phone numbers of key contacts, town services, and my kid’s login information for school apps. A few pictures below

@tjat This is awesome. Following closely and going to start trying to adapt some of this to my project.
I was getting hung up on modifying the existing Google Maps Traffic app with, like you, no java or CSS background :)

How did you get it to pull ten months? I tried using your modules, but I lost the ability to pull the pop up. I figured out how to modify the original module you forked from (if that’s the right terminology) to be able to register the key presses, but when I do, it does not progress to the next week.
Any help is appreciated!

Hello @tjat - thanks for sharing and great work! Can you please tell which touchscreen you have? Thanks in advanve.

Is there any chance you could send an anonymized version of your config?? :folded_hands:

I would also love this, I’m struggling to get this to work. -
Hi guys. I was looking into this too as I wanted the functionality of being able to add/edit/remove a google calendar event within the MM environment. I used what tjat has in his repository as a base and modified it to create a version that is working for me, let me know if you’re still looking to do something with this. The key part was that I had to edit some files to get and propagate the event ID for the default calendar module, as CX3 pulls its data from that.

Yeah, here’s a link to my git. I’m not a coder so I’m assuming I’m missing some best practices but each module should be accessible. They’re certainly highly customized for my specific classes, icons, etc.
https://github.com/tjat84My screen is an ASUS BE24ECSBT.
Thanks for sharing your GitHub. I saw you had a module for the GuestWifiQR - I tried to replicate but for some reason the magicmirror wouldnt show it but the mirror still loaded. Would be interested if you got it working and how you put it in the config.js file?

@msdt_steak and MMM-WifiPassword shows whatever its configured for

@sdetweil thanks. So you think the MMM-WifiPassword i the better way to go rather than create your own QR image and try to have the QR image created myself show?
-
@msdt_steak i’m not going to create my own!

@tjat How did you manage to increase the font-size of the calendar month heading (SEPTEMBER 2023)?

I added in the custom css:
.MMM-CalendarExt3 .module-header {
font-size: [changes here]
[other options you’d like to change]
} -
@jalow Thank you. It worked.
-
I would love to see your configuration and CSS files for this layout - looks really clean.

This is amazing! Thank you.
Do you know if the Google calendar option works with iCal/iCloud calendar?
-
Could you elaborate on the changes you made to be able to be able add/edit/delete calendar entries in EXT3?
I’m able to get the pop up to add events and the events add to the main calendar. I’m stuck tho, as I can’t edit or delete these events.
A wishlist would be able to add events to some of the other linked calendars I have. I’m also stuck and can’t get the MMM-SimpleKeyboard to open. I’m running the magic mirror through server mode and view through a website and just use an attached wired keyboard for the time being.
Thanks for any help!

Man I thought I was the only person on the internet who wanted a family dashboard that was interactive (ie to enter events on Google calendar -not just view them!). I’ve got the RPI and touch screen (Hannspree 23") sorted but with no real knowledge of coding or magic mirror modules was at a loss. I will be looking through your posts/git in more detail then I next get time! Thanks!
