Made a birthday module
-
I got inspired by MMM-Fireworks and decided to make a birthday module with fireworks and confetti. Its not a “birthday reminder” module, rather it sits quietly, and only erupts when someone has a birthday:
At that time a message is presented in the middle of the screen, fireworks and confetti is displayed.
Its somewhat multilingual (machine translated) and has a few different messages to pick from.
Things I haven’t solved: Currently there is a timer, that is per default set to “infinite” - because its of no use if its invisible. It would probably make sense to make some sortof “off button”, but my main display has no touch or input. So as of now it is as default showed until the day ends.
Here it is: https://github.com/cgillinger/MMM-Birthday

@cgillinger
I installed your module, it does nothing when its turn comes up in MMM-pages.
I am running Bookworm, MM 2.30 on a Pi 4 8gb. How do I pick the messages?
Not quite enough information to run this module.
Please help with the setup…
