Need a custom plugin - kind of syslog

[PointPubMedia]

In our last installation of Magic Mirror (version 1) we build a kind of little snippet to display our Home Automation logs in the center.

Now that Magic Mirroir v2 is using nodejs, I would like if someone can make one for us. We are paying

I need to be able to display a kind of log using external call. Currently from our external system we just do a HTTP call like

http://raspberrypi/message.php?message=“Something to put in the log”

message.php is just writing the log to a text file and keeping only the last X line and we are displaying this text file in Magic Mirror.

I’m ok to modify our external call if needed…

Um, MM² is using Node.js …

I just correct my post… I mean, Now that MM2 is using nodejs

[KirAsh4]

So you can still do an external call. Modules have the ability to access a 'node_helper.js' side script which will then do what it needs to do and pass the payload back to the module. Both the default 'calendar' and 'newsfeed' modules use that to fetch external data.

But I would like someone to build it

Ah, gotcha. I thought you were just looking for a way to port what you did for MM¹ into MM² … I have too many projects already on my plate, but hopefully someone else here can give you a hand.

Sounds like a pretty simple module to pay someone for or am I missing something?

@paviro : You are not missing anything. Just don’t have the time right now to understand how to make it

@PointPubMedia well feel free to send me a message with some details
