      Per request, I’ve added a getHeader() method to the module api. This allows you to modify the header of the module from within the module itself.

      Note: that this method will only be called if the user has set a default header. If not no header will be shown and you won’t be able to update it.

      Note: if you module’s users run an old version of MagicMirror (a version without this change), this method will not be called. No errors should be thrown. So it’s safe to use …

      If you want to use the user’s set header in this method, just reference the this.data.header variable.

      Example code:

      getHeader: function() {
          return this.data.header + '  append string';
      }

      Please let me know if this feature works for you …
