MMM-CEC-Control (tv remote via HDMI-CEC)
-
Hello everyone,
This is a module I created for the MagicMirror, in order to be able to control it via the TV remote using the HDMI-CEC protocol.
I know there are a lot of possibilities to send commands to your magic mirror, but most either require a webserver, or a app (like telegram) in order to send commands to the mirror.
This module aim to completly remove the need for any extra integrations, and allows you to use the TV remote as you would for a normal “media center” app.
Bellow is a link to the module. I would be very happy if you find this module usefull, and if you wish to add new features to it, I am open for any sugestions.
Take care,
Have a great day! -
@Sn4Pz That’s cool :-D
Don’t forget to add it to the module list: https://github.com/MagicMirrorOrg/MagicMirror/wiki/3rd-party-modules

@KristjanESPERANTO to be honest with you I am not sure it respects the standard code etiquette MM expects of it’ modules.
Is there someone who can curate it, and take care of it better? :) -
@Sn4Pz If your module works and may be useful for more people than you, it qualifies for the list. MagicMirror is a community project, and many module developers are not programmers - the quality (measured against professional programming standards) of some modules reflects this. But that’s not a problem; MagicMirror is a project to learn and tinker 😃 If someone finds an issue in your module, they can address it or even create a PR to improve it. That is one of the huge advantages of open source.
As soon as you add your module to the list, a few automatic tests will be ran (within 24 hours), resulting in a list of recommendations - but following these is entirely optional.

… and following those recommendations allows you to learn better code and improve!
