Description
The Magic Mirror Globe (MMM-Globe) Module is a utility module I’ve created, that displays a live, rotating globe, and has been designed to look absolutely incredible on your Magic Mirror. The module can be configured to show default destinations, or you can customise it to highlight customised locations.
Feedback and improvement suggestions are welcomed.
(UPDATE) IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to the intensive calculations needed to construct the objects, and the computational ability needed, I do not recommend using this module if your Mirror uses a Raspberry Pi. Please only use this module if you have something a little more powerful driving your mirror. I don’t want my work to be responsible for any mishaps with your devices.

Version 1.0
- Initial Commit. Globe stable. ReadMe Added.
Version 1.1
- Adjusted size translations to fit varying size monitors based on user feedback
-
Fantastic! This is going to save me so much time…
-
I actually don’t have a Magic Mirror of my own, I’d love for anyone to install this and let me know how it runs for them. Any pictures would be great also, I’d love to see this in use on someone’s mirror ;)
-
It actually works quite well… I just changed the two examples of location you had in there…


-
Awesome! How are the sizes for you?
-
That module looks sick. I’ll try it this evening.
-
@Eunanibus The sizes may be an issue… even the xsmall is quite big. I’m thinking on some smaller mirrors it’s going to eat a ton of room ;)
-
can you give me your monitor dimensions so i can adjust?
-
I have a 24" monitor rotated 90 degrees so the basically tipped up so length wise it’s up and down…
max resolution for 24" monitor … 1920 x 1080 resolution
-
@Eunanibus Can you make it smaller. I am using x-small on my main mirror, an 15.6 laptop screen rotated 90 degrees but it’s not rendering. The module does render when I visit the website from my phone or my laptop.
Aside from that, the module looks great. -
No problem. I’ll try and add improved rendering sizes this evening and release an update. What resolution are you using?
-
I’m using 768x1366
-
This module is awesome. I have it up & running at the office and it looks fantastic.
Question: I added a bunch of custom locations, which is great. But they don’t seem to be replacing the default locations. So I’m getting my locations and the ones that came pre-loaded. Is this by design?
-
@d3r Thanks for your feedback. I’ve made those adjustments and pushed the latest code. Give this a try and get back to me. The X-Small/Small/Medium sizes etc should show a sufficient difference between sizes now.
I’m really glad you’re enjoying it. If you could take a picture of your mirror with it in action, it would really be something (I don’t have a mirror of my own and it’s really motivational to see a picture of something I wrote on someone’s wall)
In response to your question - No, once you’ve entered custom locations, the default locations are not added.
As an example - Here is an example config entry:

And here is the resulting globe produced:

It’s a little odd you’re getting that behaviour, and I may need you to send me your config file so I can debug accordingly. Try pulling the latest version (1.1 just uploaded) and see if that helps. I may add a further config option to exlude/include default Locations as a specification.
Thanks everyone for the feedback.

Made some size adjustments now. Can you give this a try?
-
@Eunanibus Whatever change you made solved most of my problem. Now when I add locations, only the locations I add are being labeled.
I’m still seeing a bunch of nameless pins all over the globe. I’m going to have to turn those off.
-
@bhepler - Glad that fixed it. The nameless pins are just there for aesthetic and appearance. If you want those removed, you can change the content of data.js to the following:
data = []That should remove the nameless pins without needing to change or affect any of the remaining application.
-
@Eunanibus That it did. Thank you.
I’ll get it up on the mirror in the office today and send you a picture.
-
Fantastic job on the module @Eunanibus !

PERFECT! :) HUGE Thanks!
