my custom_menu.json:

{
   "id": "custom",
   "type": "menu",
   "icon": "id-card-o",
   "text": "%%TRANSLATE:CUSTOM_MENU%%",
   "items": [{
         "id": "custom-item-1",
         "type": "item",
         "icon": "dot-circle-o",
         "text": "Next page",
         "action": "NOTIFICATION",
         "content": {
            "notification": "INCREMENT_PAGE",
            "payload": null
         }
      },
      {
         "id": "custom-item-2",
         "type": "item",
         "icon": "dot-circle-o",
         "text": "Last page",
         "action": "NOTIFICATION",
         "content": {
            "notification": "DECREMENT_PAGE",
            "payload": null
         }
      },
      {
         "id": "level2",
         "type": "menu",
         "menu": "custom",
         "icon": "bars",
         "text": "Send notifications",
         "items": [
         {
             "id": "custom-item-3",
             "type": "input",
             "icon": "dot-circle-o",
             "text": "Notification",
             "action": null,
             "content": null
         },
         {
             "id": "custom-item-4",
             "type": "input",
             "icon": "dot-circle-o",
             "text": "Payload",
             "action": null,
             "content": null
         },
         {
             "id": "custom-item-5",
             "type": "button",
             "icon": "dot-circle-o",
             "text": "Send",
             "action": "NOTIFICATION",
             "content": {
                  "notification": null,
                  "payload": null
             }
         }
         ]
      }
   ]
}

The button (last entry) should now send an notification with the values from the input fields above.
something like this:

         {
             "id": "custom-item-5",
             "type": "button",
             "icon": "dot-circle-o",
             "text": "Send",
             "action": "NOTIFICATION",
             "content": {
                  "notification": "custom-item-3".value,
                  "payload": "custom-item-4".value
             }
         }

So how can i get the value from my input items?
Thanks :)

And another question. Is there a security problem when im neither using an ApiKey nor the secureEndpoints? Im using it in my private secured wifi with only me inside.

Thank you, managed to do it.

Now the RC website says the device isn’t allowed to acces the mirror…
Any clues ?

Ok just withelisted all IP adresses and it’s all good !

See https://github.com/sdetweil/MagicMirror_scripts

I’m very new to coding and the magicmirror thing, here I’m stuck at restarting the mirror, the command pm2 restart doesn’t work, I managed to instal pm2 (I think) but it still doesn’t work “Process or namespace magicmirror not found”

It also said ealier in the module I needed an API key in my config section, where should I write it ?

Could someone help ? Thanks !

[2.0.1] - 2020-10-28

Huge thanks to @ezeholz who has offered to maintain the module fron now on!
Credit for this (and future) versions and releases goes to @ezeholz (unless noted otherwise).

Now requires MagicMirror version 2.7.

I have built en set-up my daughters SM ( she’s 7 so made her a Disney “mirror, Mirror on the Wall” kinda thing.

I have set up most of the basic stuff, work in progress is;

motion sensor
voicecontole
and the darn MMM remote control
the last one gives me heaps of trouble, i’ve managed to fix a lot problems by trial and error, using this forum as a guideline.
There is one thing, picto’s and “sliders” to turn on off stuff on my phone, i havent been able to fix.

I’ve read and applied all the suggested fixes on the forum.

everything works but i’m unable to see if a module is on or off on my phone.

can anyone point me in the right direction, i’m lost atm… not native english (correct my grammer i dont mind, infact it helps)

thanks in advance

p.s. new to programming so be gentle

I have read every example and tryed many things in postman but with no success. I am trying to post these kind of notifications and I don’t know how to formulate request correctly.
This is how Module toggle notification should be formulated:

notification: "MODULE_TOGGLE",
payload: {hide: ["MMM-RTSPStream"], show: [], toggle:[]}

Or maybe there is a way to cut the stream directly. This is what MMM-RTSPStream suports:

 "stream": {
        "module": "MMM-RTSPStream",
        "path": "stream",
        "actions": {
            "play": {
                "notification": "RTSP-PLAY",
                "prettyName": "Play Stream(s)"
            },
            "stop": {
                "notification": "RTSP-STOP",
                "prettyName": "Stop Stream(s)"
            },
            "fullscreen": {
                "notification": "RTSP-PLAY-FULLSCREEN",
                "prettyName": "Play Fullscreen"
            },
            "window": {
                "notification": "RSTP-PLAY-WINDOW",
                "prettyName": "Play in Window"
            }
        }
    }
}

I am very grateful for such great modules and I would be very please if you could give me a hint to how to do it.
Regards

But I’m away from my mirror right now so cannot test it.

Please tell me what do I have to edit to use the following commands?

Turn tv on: echo on 0 | cec-client -s -d 1

Turn tv off: echo standby 0 | cec-client -s -d 1

Tv status: echo pow 0 | cec-client -s -d 1
