Mobile app (bachelor thesis)

bminer1

Hi Strawberry 3.141, I am still having an issue with using the mobile app.
Below is the steps i took based on the install guide from the git and deleting the folder.

Here is the install:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules $ git clone https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-Mobile.git
Cloning into ‘MMM-Mobile’…
remote: Counting objects: 84, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (21/21), done.
remote: Total 84 (delta 12), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 63
Unpacking objects: 100% (84/84), done.
Checking connectivity… done.
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules $

Then the Dependencies

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Mobile $ npm install
mmm-mobile@1.0.0 preinstall /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Mobile
node scripts/preinstall.js
Creating Backup for config.js!
Saving updated config.js!
mmm-mobile@1.0.0 /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Mobile
├─┬ async@2.1.4
│ └── lodash@4.17.4
├── moment@2.17.1
├── qr-image@3.2.0
└── simple-git@1.65.0
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Mobile $

add to config.js file

“modules”: [
{
“module”: “alert”
},
{
module: “MMM-Mobile”
},

the QRcode popped up but still would not connect
in the app, i put in my IP address and it said Connected for a milisecond then showed could not connect again

problem solved after adding ip to config.js

I sent an email again with the 3rd prototype. Make sure to check your spam folders.
I also would like to ask to take part in the survey which I sent by mail to evaluate the app.

As it turned out the last fix didn’t solve the issue with loosing pairing on a
restart. This is hopefully resolved now.

In the settings there is an advanced and simple mode (simple mode is
currently available for the default calendar only).

Also there is a new entry in the menu to do some tasks (restart mirror,
show/hide modules).

Don't forget to update the MMM-Mobile

Problems should be created as issues on github.

Thanks

@strawberry-3.141

Thank you for the new admin functions.

It’s possible for the app to realize if there is an available update for one or more of the installed modules and make this visible with a badge number?

Similar function like the default “updatenotification” module from @michmich

@lolobyte

Spoiler: I want to integrate push notifications which will do exactly this. But that will be after my thesis.

Hey Man. Hope you are well.

So, i updated the module with git pull
and npm install.
well done the system.

Then removed the app an installed again.

Now here my observations and questions.

In the Menu Module Verfügbar is nothing listed. I tried with pull down but no modules listed like before.

Only this comment

Kein Modul erfüllt diese Kriterien.

Installiert -> pull down -> all my installled modules are listed. OK

Regionen works well also the Synchronisieren and QR Code recognizing with phone.

All Befehle are working well.

My question.
What exactly is the difference between simple an advanced mode.
I don’t understand what you are meaning with the default calendar only.

What is the difference?

Good luck with your thesis and an lucky punch with it.

strawberry 3.141

@lolobyte simple mode is only available for the configuration of the default calendar module. then you cannot specify custom stuff, only properties which are defined for this module. this will come for all default modules and modules which will be supported from their developers

strawberry 3.141

@strawberry-3.141 as a reminder the survey, I sent by mail, for the evaluation of the app will be closed tomorrow, would be great to get more feedback

@strawberry-3.141

Hy @strawberry-3-141

how i said.
In the menu “Module” “Verfügar” were in the past a lot of available modules after a pull down. Now there is nothing. He give a error message “Fehlgeschlagen: Module können nicht aktualisiert werden!”

At “Installiert” all my installed on configured modules in the config.js are available. Wen i chose then a Module to see the details an wish to go back then the “verfügbar” entry is chosen by the app. In my opinion it may be better to chose “Installiert”

What happens after the evaluation step?

@strawberry-3.141 I try the pair the app when MagicMirror and can’t

The log of cli on MagicMirror say

Has this happened ?

strawberry 3.141

@lolobyte the app takes the modules from http://beta.magicmirror.builders/modules maybe the service wasnt available at the time you tried. The thing with the tabs is on my list, there are also some other problems with the history stack.

evaluation

.then(defineConfigStandardWithSimilarModules)

@roramirez does the mirror show the qrcode or does it happen before?

@PeppaPigKilla what happened?

PeppaPigKilla

The app been released ?
Searched the store, but couldnt find anything.

strawberry 3.141

@PeppaPigKilla no, there was just a beta testing of the prototypes for Android and iOS yet.

Your email reminder was moved to JunkMail by outlook.com, so I didn’t notice.
I completed the survey anyway

embarrassed to even ask this but is there a step by step typed out of this other than what’s in the “README.dm” file, I mean some thing a little more detailed? noob status. apologies. I saw bminer1’s post but I’m looking for even more detail than that since I don’t know all the correct command lines. I have the .apk, just need help as my install failed.

strawberry 3.141

@1m2 if you want to, i can help via a remote desktop session
