@snille Hello Snilles how are you?

I’ve been stuck for ages trying to do the same thing (switch profile on demand) with scripts or Google Home. The reason is:

1. I can’t find any php or js function to (as you said) “visit” URL:s --> because you have to be in a browser
2. You can add commands on Google Home via IFTTT request, which only uses external IP!

Would you have any idea that could help me please?

Thank you very much for your help,

Cedric

Hello everybody, I have been stuck for months with this issue:

I would like to be able to run scripts to switch profile on demand:

I know this command: http://localhost:8080/remote?action=NOTIFICATION¬ification=CURRENT_PROFILE&payload="Test"

but it has to be run on a browser, impossible to run it via a script…

I know this one as well : this.sendNotification(‘CURRENT_PROFILE’, ‘Test’);
but I don’t know how to run it via a script neither…

I would like to run these scripts via IFTTT, so when I say “ok Google, I want to see blabla on mirror”, it switches profiles.

Warning: I know that ifttt needs to run commands on an server opened to the internet, but I already have one (not my mirror). so my server opened to the internet will run the commands received from ifttt and run the scripts from the mirror to switch profile (whatever ssh, bash, perl, php…)

Thank you for your help!

@McSorley Hi there,
Quick question about the supplier in the UK: the mirror is 3mm, which is quite thin, did it arrive in a good shape?
thank you in advance

Such a great work!
magic mirror devient de plus en plus connu par chez nous :p
Quick question, what kind of screen did you use, and which size is it? I would like to find a screen as slim as yours.

Hi, yes this is exactly what I did for my house.

First of all, i have a connected xiaomi wifi extension plugs, so plug 1 = my screen, plug 2 = the RPI3

when I say “OK Google turn on/off the screen”, it switches on/off the screen according to an http request (WARNING to local IPs on IFTTT) that i ve included on ifttt.

Same thing for the RPI if I want to reboot or switch off or switch on (ssh commands via http requests).

The only thing that I still can’t do, I would like to do is changing the profile with the great plugin profile switcher :
http://192.168.0.136:8080/remote?action=NOTIFICATION¬ification=CURRENT_PROFILE&payload=“News”

The issue is this is a local IP… I don’t know how to run a script from my server (opened to the internet) that could run this local http request is there any function in PHP?

@korevaartje ,
Personally I put my pictures on the css directory, and here is how I load them:

				"Cedric": {
					img: "/css/cedric.jpg",
					width: 60,
					height: 60
				},

And every day I do a rsync save of the css directory, and the conf directory as well to my NAS server.

Hi, thank you for getting back to me

Yes, the idea is basically the same, but I would just like to see the memo a little bit longer than the regular alert’s configuration.
The problem for me is if I change the display_time setting directly on the alert module, it would be too long for the other alert like “nice to see you %profile%”, etc lol

Hi all,

Thank you again for your answer last time, playing with the option display_time from the alert module.

However, if you modify it, every alert would be modified. For exemple, if I want to set my memo to keep displayed for at least 30 secondes, I go modify the display_time from the alert module. But, all alerts like for example “welcome back Mr Blabla” when I switch profile will stay longer than usual.

The question is how do I have to do to only change the MMM-Memo alerts please?
Many thanks,
Cedric

Riiight, thank you very much!
