Update works with the http:// /remote?action=update

Restart does the same error as above regardless of URL.

Update: changing to other command works if all caps. UPDATE rather than update.

Restart: Same error.

@Jopyth

I’ve got two URL commands that aren’t working. I’d like some help to figure them out.

Update: Trying to use “http://[address]/api/update” - I get back “Cannot GET /api/update”

Restart: Again, using “http://[address]/api/restart” - I get back:

Error: Cannot find module ‘pm2’

Thanks

If the author ever comes back, I’ve made a couple of changes to the module that I’d love to see applied.

Floating point trouble, (both temperature and humidity values are coming up as “xx.xxx9999999999”)

I have a DHT22, but it did this with the DHT11 too, before I burned it up trying to move it from one board to another.

This gives you the tens and rounds off the rest.

// Convert C to F
			if (this.config.units === "imperial") {
				this.temperature = Math.round((data.temperature * 9/5 + 32)*10)/10;
			} else {
				this.temperature = data.temperature;
			}
			if (typeof this.temperature !== "undefined" && this.temperature !== null)  {
				this.sendNotification("INDOOR_TEMPERATURE", this.temperature);
			}
			this.humidity = Math.round(data.humidity*10)/10;
			if (typeof this.humidity !== "undefined" && this.humidity !== null)  {
				this.sendNotification("INDOOR_HUMIDITY", this.humidity);
			}
			this.updateDom(this.config.animationSpeed);
		}

FWIW, in the future,

Open a terminal
Type cd MagicMirror and press Enter
Now you’re in the MagicMirror directory
Type npm run config:check and press Enter
MagicMirror will now check your config

I also would like to be able to trigger alerts from outside the MM eco-system… For example - MMM-Buttons doesn’t work for me due to lack of pull resistors on my switches, and the lack of support for internal ones, as well as having lights that I’d like to light up for various button pushes and statuses.

I’d love to use a python script to set up the buttons functionality instead of MMM-Buttons, and trigger actions within MM.

oooh, that would be FUN…

I’m assuming you’re referring to the good Vancouver (BC) and not the bad one (Washington)…

Here in Washington it goes by MirroPane. Any glass shop has it or has it for order. Make sure you can see a sample, because I do believe you’d have to use it in “reverse of normal operation”

Good luck.

Would it be possible to change the core in such a way to create a customizable region work easier?

What I’d like to see is the index.html and css work together better so to allow the user via another config file/css file/whatever to define their own regions, overriding the regions defined within the base.

This would be able to allow us, for example, set up 5 vertical/3 horizontals, or whatever - making the most of the space of our monitors - and/or making portrait mode a ton easier to work with.

As it is now, I do believe the index.html has to be modified along with the CSS and a bunch of other tweaks… seems too complex for most.
