Use MMM-Buttons to hide/show modules


  • Hey guys,

    another question again -.- ^^

    i am actually trying to show and hide a module with the MMM-Buttons of @Jopyth

    The Buttons Module works fine for show the podcast e.g.

    To show and hide the MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic Module this works also fine:

    http://192.168.178.240:8080/remote?action=SHOW&module=module_0_MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic
    http://192.168.178.240:8080/remote?action=HIDE&module=module_0_MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic

    so i tried to implement that to my Buttons config, but this doesn’t work:

    {
                    module: 'MMM-Buttons',
                    config: {
                        maxShortPressTime: 1000,
                        buttons: [
                            {
                                pin: 20,
                                name: "GoogleMapsTraffic",
                                shortPress: {
                                    notification: "REMOTE_ACTION",
                                    payload: {action: "HIDE&module=module_0_MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic"}
                                },
                                longPress: {
                                    notification: "REMOTE_ACTION",
                                    payload: {action: "SHOW&module=module_0_MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic"}
                                },
                            },
                            {
                                pin: 19,
                                name: "Podcast",
                                shortPress: {
                                    notification: "BUTTON_PRESSED",
                                    payload: {action: ""}
                                },
                                longPress: undefined
                            }
                        ]
                    }
                },

    If i type “RESTART” in the Payload the mirror restarts. So the Button is connected on the right pin.

    Any idea?

    Hi @cruunnerr,

    payload.module isn’t part of payload.action, but should be a separate key:

    shortPress: {
  notification: "REMOTE_ACTION",
  payload: {
    action: "HIDE",
    module: "module_0_MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic"
  }
},

    Hope that helps.
