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

Patex

@Jopyth I forked your project and am looking into adding the functionality to toggle back and forth between different configurations with one click using the remote page (like having a set of different config files). Is this proposed change on your to do list as well?

AAPS

Is there anything I need to do to update instead of just putting “git pull” in ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Remote-Control ?

Jopyth

@AAPS The script does git pull and npm install (therefore you need to do the npm install, if you are updating from an old version). Also it offers to switch between the develop and the master version (source).

Jopyth

@Patex Do you want to do this with the config.js or with the settings.json (visibility of modules and brightness)? I had this idea once for the settings of visible modules and brightness, but did not implement it. Basically what other modules do with profiles defined in the config. I am not sure how much sense it makes to have multiple config.js. One (large) config.js (which includes all configured modules) and multiple “profiles” which only show a selection of these might be the way to go?

@Jopyth What is the difference between develop and master version? Also, I probably sound dumb, but how do I change my ipWhitelist? Currently I have “::ffff:192.168.1.1/24” added. Do I need anything else? ( I would rather be able to access the mirror from any device )

Master branch is the official stable release
Developer branch is in development, so it contains new features but could contain bugs. Once the development team is happy they move the current development version over as the new stable release

@AAPS If you want to allow all devices on your network, change the 24 to a 120 for IPv6: ::ffff:192.168.1.1/120

Also, new version with bugfixes is out, see below. Has anyone tried the installer yet? I made it mostly for fun, but I am still look for serious feedback. :)

[1.1.2] - 2017-02-01

Note: Since version 1.1.0 this module uses (new) dependencies, check the Updating section in the README.md.

Added

Swedish translation

Changed

Installation process updated in README.md
Automatic installer/updater includes hint to restart Magic Mirror²

Fixed

Issues with not applying shown and hidden status correctly to modules
Issues where lockstrings were missing
Modules sometimes did not show correctly in the UI as hidden or shown:
- This is due to a bug in Magic Mirror²
- PR #659 to fix this was made in the project, will be released in the next version

What is the difference between ::ffff:192.168.1.1/120 and ::ffff:192.168.1.1/24 ?

Heyo, after updating to 1.1.2, if i restart MM using pm2 i get a white screen and had to reboot the pi. Any idea?

AAPS

I’m no professional but did you do npm install? If you didn’t, check this out: https://github.com/Jopyth/MMM-Remote-Control
There’s instructions for updating there. If this doesn’t help, look around the forum because I am pretty sure someone has had the same problem as you.
