MMM-Globe

[mumblebaj]

@Eunanibus Awesome, can’t wait. I actually tried this the first time i setup my mirror and it worked for me on my Pi 3B+. Although some of the locations were wrong at the time but I assume that was my error. Nice work with this project and again, can’t wait for the light version.

@Eunanibus - Well, since you’re asking… these are the things I remember from the original code that I would love to see implemented.

• Specify locations to be linked by an arc.
• Specify colors used for the pins
• Specify colors used for the arcs
• An updateInterval to control when to refresh the globe w/ the build animation
• A true/false switch to display the default pins.
• Alternately, an array for unlabeled pins that will replace the defaults if you provide it.

Thanks!

Any updates on this lite version?
Also is there a way to display all pin names when they are close and have them overlap?

Hey Eunanibus, Jolly good show old boy :blond-haired_man: :clapping_hands: :clapping_hands: :clapping_hands:

I have implemented straight away :-
it runs without any problems until now !

@TechJak7000 hi, do you use a raspberry pi?

[TechJak7000]

Hello, I do use Raspberry pi4 with High performance 128 GB SD card !

Impressive!!!

I just started a smart mirror project with Pi3 (1G) and just found out about this awesome plugin.

Great job!

So, I guess I’ll have to wait for that lightweight version :)

Hello,

I have installed module on my P4, but somehow it does not really work. It is only displayed as in the picture below and not as in the pictures on the GitHub page. Does anyone know what the problem is?

@idea215 Did you go to the github link from the first post or just Googled for MMM-Globe? Yours looks like mine which is from a different MMM-Globe

What a beautiful modul! Any chance to change the font size to be able to fit more destinations next to each others? I did try to find it in the .css but had no luck yet.

Hi,
I have a question about the module:

I would like to make the background transparent, is that possible? At the moment it is black.

That would help me, because I have a slideshow running in the background and the black background behind the globe doesn’t look so nice …

Would be very grateful if someone could help.

@foxy25 @foxy25 In your custom.css file, see if adding:

.globe { opacity: 0.0; }

Fixes the issue?

@wenike
Hi,

i use the command in the styles.css of the modul, not in the custom.css.

It works, but it makes the complete module invisible, not only the background behind the globe.

Thank you for your support.

@foxy25 to make globe transparent there are two changes required.

• Module div’s background color
• Globe canvas itself have black color as background.

First one can be easily doable with css but to make globe transparent you will need to change the code as well. Do below to make globe transperent.

• In custom.css add below css

.globe
{
	background-color: unset;
}

• in modules\MMM-Globe\encom-globe.js file find below line and change it to.

from

this.renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer( { antialias: true } );

to

this.renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer( { antialias: true, alpha: true } );

---

below is output

Before

After

Let me know how/if it works for you.

[Foxy25]

It works perfect!!!

Thank you so much for you support!!!

Hi @damith,

May be, you have an issue in the config.js.
You can use the built-in check-tool from within the MagicMirror folder named
npm run config:check

Or use an external Website (I use https://esprima.org/demo/validate.html) to see if it is valed.
