[Remote-Control] Shutdown, Configure and Update your MagicMirror

ejmina

Hi @Jopyth
Awesome module!

A couple of questions - how can I use it to enable-disable MMM-PIR-Sensor?

Is it possible to use it to disable/enable certain aspects of a module?
e.g.: for the newsfeed, i’d like to switch on/off certain feeds

TIA

Hi!
Thank you for this great module!
I’m thinking it would be good to have menu entry for the “logs”.
Basically just “display” the logs (maybe last 100 lines) of the ~/.pm2/logs/mm* files.
What do you say? :)

Best regards Snille

@Snille I like the idea, will probably add this to my “want to do” features.

Also, I decided to release all the stuff I have worked on as version 1.1.0, some of it is still experimental, but I put a (hopefully) clear warning before you can mess up your config.

[1.1.0] - 2017-01-26

Added

First version of installer script
Menu to send Alerts and/or Notifications to your mirror
Menu to update your MagicMirror installation and your modules (through git pull)
Menu to change the config.js
- Modules can be installed, added, removed, configured
- There will be backups of the five last versions of the config.js in the config folder
- Some of these parts are hidden behind an “exprimental” warning, do not ignore that warning
NOTIFICATION action, see README.md for details

Changed

Menu structure
- Old “Edit” and “Settings” are now under “Edit view”
Smaller font sizes in lists

Fixed

Issues coming from disabled modules since MM version 2.1.0

Well done for getting the update out!

Can’t wait to give it a try.

Loving the update so far. But I’m experiencing a couple small bugs. On re-boot I am losing my active/hidden module settings. I get the “Done” confirmation after Saving, but on reboot it’s showing all modules rather than just the ones I had active. I’m also getting “! Error!” when I attempt Power > Restart MagicMirror2.

Remote-Control is one of my favs. Happy to check some logs anything that may help isolate the problem.

Is it worth updating? I have been excited for this update, but I have waited to see if it would be better than the previous version. Since it appears that some people experience bugs, I might just stay with the version I have. Is this a smart choice?

@in_a_days Funny I also got that bug on the previous remote version, after updating to MM v2.1 . If I´m rebooting the MM or Power Off and starting it later, all changes of visible Modules are gone. So basically i tested some modules and later hide them cause i don´t want to delete them from the config, or just show them when i need some of them. It´s not a big deal, just saying.

@AAPS (and everyone else): You can try the new version, but you can also go back to a previous version afterwards with the commands:

cd MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Remote-Control # or wherever you installed the Mirror and the module
git checkout v1.0.0 # or the version you want

Currently, there is v1.0.0 (which is probably the one you are on) and v1.1.0 as older versions. To check out the most recent version use git checkout master again.

I’m experiencing a white screen issue after updating MMM-Remote to the latest version. Anyone knows how to solve this ? I’ve disabled the module for now.
