@paulb

Is your device listed in “whitelist”, in your config.js?

Please check forum on whitelist issues.

@jopyth in light of topic resurrection, I’m looking into creating multiple functions for my pi’s. I’m using MMM-NetworkScanner and MMM-Remote-Control. The idea is like follows:

When I leave home, my mobile goes offline from home network. I’m looking for a command to enable camera (reboot y/n) to enable another project I’d like to combine with this. (Pi Camera Notifier: https://iotbreaks.com/build-a-camera-alert-application-with-raspberrypi-3-and-iosandroid-pushbullet-app/) turning it into a security cam. The commands available in the readme of MMM-RC didnt hand me a clue for further investigations

I’d love to see these work in conjunction that’d give it a whole new dimension :)

Same error as above but in English. Def restarts MM with no issue but MM RM displays error oddly?

[robiv8]

Nobody an idea?
Now the notification does not work anymore! Somehow I have the feeling that this block any other modules.
You can send but it does not matter! Also no error message.

@Jopyth What Happen? and how to solve it?

[robiv8]

I have the impression that Jopyth does not have time to maintain the module. Last answer here was 9 months ago.
Too bad, is an excellent module

@jopyth I’ve done the Italian translation if you would like to add it. ;)

Hi everyone, these is a new version, lots of credit goes to @shbatm for this. Please give it a try and see if it fixed the various issues. There are also better error messages, which might help us narrow down the problem. Without further ado, this is the changelog:

[2.0.0] - 2019-02-21

Huge shoutout to shbatm for his work on this new major version, which brings a new API, custom menus and commands and lots of other stuff:

Added

• REST API interface for controlling all aspects of the MagicMirror from HTTP RESTful-style GET and POST calls, based on principles from MMM-Api
  • Full API Documentation at API/README.md
• Live daily updates of modules.json from the MagicMirror wiki, based on principles from MMM-Remote-Control-Repository.
• Incorporated some features found in MMM-OnScreenMenu that were not originally in this module.
  • Monitor (Connected Screen) On-Off Status and Toggle
  • Delayed calls (“DELAYED” Query option and .../delay API paths)
  • If using Electron: Open Dev Tools, Minimize, Toggle Fullscreen
• Configuration Option to send custom shell commands to use. Currently, only custom monitor on/off/status commands are supported.
• Module Control menu - Automatically generated from the API to control the different modules you have installed, based on their notificationReceived function.
• Custom menu items. See Custom Menu Items in README
• Norsk bokmål translation

Changed

• Updates to remote.html and the node_helper.js to use direct SocketIO communication back and forth instead of separate HTTP calls.
  • Future framework for following PM2 logs and more live update options.
• General clean-up and standardization of status reporting for GET and POST calls, to original URLs and to new API URLs.
• Updated to ES2015 (ES Version 6) function calls in most locations.
• Added USER_PRESENCE controls from AgP42
• Added/updated french translations from BKeyport and Mysh3ll
• Added SHOW/HIDE/TOGGLE ALL modules option per request from Rene1709

Upcoming Changes

• Add additional MMM-OnScreenMenu features:
  • Moving modules’ positions
• PM2 Log Follower / Terminal Window
• Added Notification Echo option to config to echo all Module Notifications to the remote’s DevTools console for debugging.
• Allow for text input in the Module Controls menu to be able to provide a notification payload.
