Automatic checking of all MagicMirror² modules

@karsten13 said in Automatic checking of all MagicMirror² modules:
category and tags are similar, do we still need a category?
Good point! The mass of tags will certainly become a bit confusing. We could replace the category links in the menu by a few selected tags or we highlight certain tags so that they are more noticeable. I think I’ll try it in this direction.

MMM-Remote-Control uses similar JSON as a module-list.
You’re right, it would be cool to get compatibility with
MMM-Remote-Control
. Thanks for the hint! -
I made some progress: https://kristjanesperanto.github.io/MagicMirror-3rd-Party-Modules/
There’s still a lot on the to-do list and some things aren’t working quite smoothly yet. But the website is now filled with data from all modules from the wiki.
When changes are made in the wiki, it doesn’t take much effort to update the data in this project - I just have to run a few scripts. Furthermore, no manual work is necessary.

You can get such info’s over their api.
Unfortunately the API blocks me when I make queries for almost 1000 modules in a short time 🤪
I now take the tags from keywords in the
package.json

from your todo list
Is there also a GitLab API?
yes, as example you can look at MMM-RepoStats
Another thing is what the source of the list should be, still the wiki (which is very error prone since anyone can edit things).
Alternatively, you could store a list in your repo and we need something for users to add to their repo (e.g. as a PR in the repo or with website functionality).
But maybe there are even better ideas.

hmm… if this is the cornerstone for a proper MagicMirror Appstore, then I should consider renaming all my modules to start with the letter “A” to attract more attention on the landing page :-D
-
@Jalibu Didn’t do that yet? :D
-
@Jalibu AAA-Module instead of MMM? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
-
@BKeyport or MMM-a-fancy-weather-module, MMM-a-powerful-stock-ticker, MMM-a-bosch-smart-home-dashboard, etc…

Yeah, I’m already have some ideas about the default sort order (like a combination of stars, issues and activity), this will prevent that :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:

In the last few days I have worked on some details on the site. So if you’re interested, take a look: https://kristjanesperanto.github.io/MagicMirror-3rd-Party-Modules/.
And there is now a little statistics table on the results page: https://github.com/KristjanESPERANTO/MagicMirror-3rd-Party-Modules/blob/main/result.md#statistics
I have also created a few PRs based on the list for some modules. Most of them have already been accepted :-)
