Still working on getting things to refresh, but here is a teaser…

Let me know if the pic isn’t showing or disappears, using google photos

Had that happen just last week, did a backup of the card using win32diskimager after it was restored.

I’m looking at setting up a read-only os to play around with and configure myself… https://medium.com/swlh/make-your-raspberry-pi-file-system-read-only-raspbian-buster-c558694de79

Hi, I’m Darren. I’m pretty new to MagicMirror, but am spending a lot of time on the forum trying to learn more about the project and learn to develop modules. I just posted up my first module (MMM-Smartthings). I also do administration for a woodworking forum (familywoodworking.org) so can offer some experience as to what we’ve done to mitigate spam. I’m happy to help out if you need me.

Here is additional information on checking your config file that may help…

I’ve fixed the duplication, added an excluded device name list, fixed some timing issues, and cleaned it up.

I’m not entirely happy with the way I’m getting all the data, but I haven’t quite figured out a good way to wait for all the promises returned from the smartthings-node library. I have to loop the capabilities, make a request to get devices by capability, wait for that promise, then loop devices to get the statuses for each, once those promises return I need to pair up the status with its device.

So the ugly of it is that I’m just pushing all the data via sockets for each status request into an array that gets updated, then it gets fed to the getDom(). Not pretty, but it’s working.

This is the css I use in my custom.css file to get a semi transparent shadowbox with rounded corners on my modules to make them easier to read over the slideshow background.

 .normal,
 .dimmed,
 header,
 body {
        color: #fff;
 }

 .module {
        background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
        border-radius:15px;
        padding: 10px;
 }

We recently installed a new front door which has all frosted glass. My wife was wanting a way to see who is at the door before answering it. After doing some googling I happened to come across this site. After a couple of weeks playing with the software, working out a few bugs, and testing camera setups, I’ve come up with something we’re both happy with.

For my project I’m using the following modules
clock
calendar_monthly
holidays
compliments
weather
MMM-RTSPstream
MMM-CalendarWeek
MMM-BackgroundSlideshow
MMM-GoogleMapsTraffic
MMM-GroveGestures
MMM-MyCommute
MMM-pages
MMM-Pollen
MMM-Remote-Control
MMM-Trello

The case I designed to match an existing table in our hallway. The drawer face is false and covers the pi and electrical plug, which I’m in the process of wiring, but no wiring will show. The drawer panel also has a small hole for the gesture sensor, which I’m using to navigate pages mostly.

I’ve got a Smartthings hub and several motion sensors throughout the house. I’m using the sensors to toggle the monitor on/off as we enter/leave the room.

I’ve added some shadow boxes to all the modules to make them easier to see against the background images.

Ok, I think I’ve gotten things to where it’s ready to share, I posted it up on the modules forum…Thanks again for all the feedback.

This is a module to display status information for devices connected to a Samsung Smartthings hub account.

https://github.com/buzzkc/MMM-Smartthings

Currently it’s limited to the following device capabilities: “switch”, “contactSensor”, “lock”, “temperatureMeasurement”, “relativeHumidityMeasurement”, & “motionSensor”

The frequency you update will depend on the number of devices you have. The api is limited to 250 requests per minute per app or device.

If you have issues or want to request additional features, please submit a bug report on the github repository.
