Hello,
I’ve created a quick module for an advent calendar. Is is customizable and the images can be chosen individual.
I’ve made this module quite quick after I got the ideas yesterday morning. I’ll refine it a little but I did’t want to let you wait any longer g
It could contain some bugs and may not be perfect at this time. Let me know what you notice, and I will try to improve it.
Hello,
finally I finished my first MM-module. I was struggling with the existing shelly modules so I decided to create a new one which uses only the cloud-api in order to be independent from the device itself.
The MMM-ShellyStatusTable module displays the switch status and power consumption of multiple Shelly devices in a table on the MagicMirror², including a total consumption sum. It regularly updates the data via the Shelly Cloud API Gen 1 and Gen 2+. So it should be independed from the devices in your smart home.
It is currently hard to say if every device is considered correctly. I have the following devices and it works:
Currently no translation is available. It will follow in the next days. But it is not hard to fix by your own, I hope.
I’m not really a module developer but ChatGPT finally fixed it :-)
Please try and give me a feedback if you discover some problems. Maybe I can help, but I’m no sure at all :laugh:
@KristjanESPERANTO Done. I’m not yet completely happy with the style. I’ll work on it next Summer :)
Hello,
After creating my first Shelly MMM module, I knew it was time for an upgrade. I wanted something with a more polished, visually appealing look than a basic table. Introducing my new module:
Example:
This module can also more or less replace the MMM-ShellyStatusTable. If a device is switched on or off it is dynamic displayed in the list.
Give it a try and give me Star ;)
Cheers,
Chris.
Hi,
I’ve created a quick module for New Year’s Eve or other events you’d like to highlight on your mirror.
The MMM-Fireworks module brings a visually stunning fireworks display to your MagicMirror, designed to celebrate special occasions. The fireworks animation runs best in the fullscreen_above region, creating an immersive experience. The start time and duration of the display are configurable via the config.js file.
Have fun and take care :-)
Chris.
@sdetweil thats why I made the module. The Pi is completely headless. So I’m in the kitchen with my laptop and enjoy this autorefresh now. Before that I’ve used a Script on my Smartphone. Also manual and annoying :-)
And sure, also the xdotool command is just pressing “ctrl+r” for me.
Hello,
I’m using EVCC for load PV surplus. Currently I’m using parts of the EVCC dashboard in an I-Frame. This is not as nice as it could be.
For all who don’t know what it is: EVCC.
Has anyone tried to create something for the MM project?

Hi,
I have created a quick module to visualize outside temperatures from the Temp2IOT Sensor:

Hi guys,
I’ve created a new module. My motivation was to see what’s up around me in my city. I’ve missed so many events in my life, so I was searching for an event reminder. But I didn’t find anything that fits to my belongings. So I decided to create something on my own:
The MMM-EventSearch module for MagicMirror fetches and displays event information using the SerpAPI to search for events based on a given query, location, and other parameters. It uses in this case google (see SerpApi for other options) and displays the list results from google which everyone has seen already.
To find a suitable query go to goolge and try a little for your city or surrounding city/provice/state.
The results are currently limited to the the results that google initally shows. So the “mode results” button does not work or is not accessible with this API!
The module dynamically generates a table with event details, displaying:
Event Fetching:
Events are refreshed periodically based on the updateInterval. On the free plan from SerpAPI 100 calls are free per month. So be careful.
CSS Styling is a little acc. to Google results.
Have fun!
Cheers
Chris.
Hi,
I’m currently working on a new module. I had a lot of updates to do in my code to adjust the layout. After saving changes, I had to manually refresh the MagicMirror application every time. This process is tedious, especially if you’re frequently experimenting with configurations.
That’s where this script comes in. By monitoring your config.js file (or a module.js file) for changes, it automates the refresh process. Now, every time I save my config.js, the Mirror refreshes itself instantly.
It’s seamless, efficient, and saves you from the hassle of restarting the application manually.
Perfect for developers and tinkerers alike, this script ensures your MagicMirror reflects your updates in real-time, letting you focus on creativity instead of logistics.

Give it a try…

Hi,
Maybe a new module is needed. I found an approach to get data from your car. Maybe not that easy.
I don’t have a Polestar so it is difficult to support.

@sdetweil i hope that your installer can also uninstall a module … g
@sdetweil it is running on my pi but until now i didn‘t need it. I have no space for a new module left ;)
But i‘ll try tomorrow and give you a feedback.
Hello,
I’ve added a quite special module to the “family” which is exact what I need. Maybe someone else hat also a PV on the roof controlled by the Fronius inverter and in addition a mini-PV system measuring with a Shelly-device. I have exactly that case in my house :-)
So, that’s it: MMM-FroniusSolar4
Added Shelly device in the monitoring:
There is a small flickering effect with the text labels. SVG doesn’t like text with icons inside that much. I have no more ideas how to fix this (I tried a lot). But it is not really annoying me.
One hint: the label text must be modified in the js-file in this part of the code:
svg.appendChild(createGauge( "Grid", this.config.icons.P_Grid, "top", .............));
svg.appendChild(createGauge( "Akku", this.config.icons.P_Akku, "bottom", ................));
svg.appendChild(createGauge( "", this.config.icons.P_Load, "middle",..................));
svg.appendChild(createGauge( "PV Mini", this.config.icons.P_Shelly, "bottom", ...............));
The "" is the house in the middle :)

Hi,
my mm.sh also restarts the mirror. But my intention with was doing only a refresh to save a lot of time. My restarts script sleeps 15s before it is executed. So i created a seperate refresh script.
Fixed. IP can now be defined in the config.js:
InverterIP: "<yourInverterIP>",
Hi,
i found a small bug. At this moment you need to change your inverter-IP in the node_helper.js file.
I‘ll fix this to a config entry this weekend.
Hi,
i was working the last days on a module to get rid of the last iframes on my mirror. These modules can all visualize solar energy data from a Fronius solar system using SVG magic :)
If you do not have a FroniusPV but your system has an API it should be not much work to adjust the node_helper file.
All in a column:
