Thanks for the input!

Hmm, the problem is that the old setup used an external motion sensor (NodeRed docker on my NAS with a Hue motion sensor triggering NodeRed to sending the screen on/off command on the MM Raspberry Pi setup via MMM-Remote-control).

Sounds Like I have to scrap the NodeRed/Motion-sensor-setup and modify my MM-setup and include a motion sensor in it… :)

Or, how would things behave if I have MM installed on the Raspberry and run it in client mode? Would a “screen off” call turn off the screen on the client or would it make no sense to it?

Hi all,

I have until recently run MagicMirror on a Raspberry Pi, but now I’m transitioning into a docker setup. I want my raspberry pi to only be a “client”. I have some other functions I also want to include:

List of requirements:

• Raspberry Pi as “client” - i.e. only display MM interface (
• Possibility to turn on and off screen with external motion sensor (i.e. power saving). In my old setup I used the MMM-Remote-control module and had NodeRed to send a web request with “turn screen on/off” when a motion sensor was triggered.

What would be the best & easiest way to set this up?

@sdetweil Great! thanks for the help! I was able to get things up and running…

Hi!

I’ve been running my MagicMirror setup with a Raspberry Pi for some time, but now I would like to transition into running it via docker on my Synology Network disk.
I followed this guide to get things up and running : https://mariushosting.com/how-to-install-magicmirror-on-your-synology-nas/

However, now I’m stuck with the question - how do I install modules in docker?! Anyone that can explain or send me in the right direction?
