This is a ‘project’ and if you need help or something just ask but yes read too! :)

This is more a personal journey and a learning experience!

That would be really a great idea! I run the local news for rss and being able to read it would be really awesome!

@cowboysdude Ok, I’m currently working on the hardware installation guide. I’ll publish it on github today/tomorrow.

The installation of multiples sensors is the same that with only one. You have to plug them on the same GPIO (parallel). More information soon in the Readme :)

WOW very nice! Thank you! :)

@KirAsh4 said in Unable to install dependencies, NPM install not working:

I will try this weekend. Haven’t had much free time lately.

WHAT? Free time… what’s this ‘free time’ thing of which you speak? Hahahahahaha

Ok, Thanks! :)

Where’d you get the globe from? :)

@Thlb0 the hardware installation.

The instructions are VERY good but not sure how to add more than one sensor and wire them in.

Thank you

@Thlb0 this is pretty cool!!!

For us non programmers how would we add more than 1 sensor?

Thanks!

@Mitchfarino said in MMM-ModuleScheduler:

@cowboysdude @ianperrin how would would I implement a schedule so that a module appeared for 5 minutes, then disappear and reappear in 5 minutes time?

I’ve tried this

module_schedule: { */5 * * * * },

2nd edit- I thought I’d got it with this…

module_schedule: { from: '*/2 * * * *', to: '*/3 * * * *'},

Yes that should make it run every five minutes…

Copy and try this without brackets…

'*/5 * * * *'

example - schedule: ‘30 9 * * *’,

You can start manually [which I personally prefer] using ‘npm start’ OR you can have it start automatically when the pi boots up using pm2… either way.

Most prefer pm2 as if you have a power outage etc and the pi restarts the mirror restarts too… I just prefer the manual method well actually because I’m a dinosaur… LOL

JUST to clearify for anyone… the module works GREAT!!

Create the right thing and it’ll work~

ACCESS TOKEN is NOT your API KEY LOL

Hey @pugsly any help is good help!

That’s ok, that’s not a valid API key… That’s the problem.

Let me explain… you do have an API key but what you need is an Access Token… that’s where the problem is.

In the config it is asking for the Access token… that’s where we both made a mistake!!! :) It’s all good.

We got it! :)

Thanks @kapsolas

@wjdw87

Ok hang in there kid… just about there…

Hmm… from here : https://github.com/kapsolas/MMM-Instagram

Do you have to install : https://www.npmjs.com/package/request - How?

To confirm:

You cloned the module from github - YES
You generated a token for instragram - YES
Configured the config.js file, configuration for the module appropriately - YES
reply

OH that’s the easy part ;)

In the terminal window [the one you type in ‘npm start’ to start the mirror]… go to the modules dir then the MMM-Instagram dir

MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Instagram

type in without quotes “npm install”

Once that’s finished go back to the MagicMirror and start your mirror :)

@karde said in change current weather colors - time and wind:

Thanks for your help!!
But that’s for the icon right? I’m trying to change the texts, “1.5” and “21:38”, but thanks for your help!

Still done through the custom.css… not sure what they are as I use a different module for weather.

@done said in Motion Detector:

@strawberry-3.141 Ok, I’ll give it a try. Tomorrow morning, I will test again. Thx!

WORST case senario is you install a screen saver program and disable it… period. :)

@bibi said in Motion Detector:

hello! as understood there are 2 topics ongoing here "PIR module of @cowboysdude " and "motiondetector of @alexyak ". I will not ask which is the best module, you both did a great job, thx!
don’t take it bad but i just wanted to have opinions and feedback on which one is running currently without any, less issues please? (i am starting my mirror and don’t want to be too much demanding on the forum if not working - wise ;-))

@cowboysdude : i have already implemented Paviro’s module to test and i wanted to know if i should remove it before installing your one?

Thx in advance for your relpies and have a good day/eve :)

Honestly I will you this… I liked the motion sensor BUT @ianperrin worked out a module scheduler that I liked much better! I can turn modules off and on at specific times and turn it all off when I"m not home only to have it back on again when I arrive home.

All-in-all it really depends on your needs. NOTHING is without issues of some kind. I just really disliked the PIR sensor sticking out …

I hoped this help you in some way.

OH but of course @strawberry-3-141 also made a voice module that you can just tell the mirror to turn off too :) The usb mike is about the same price as a pir sensor!!! It’s REALLY awesome!!!

@kapsolas said in MMM-Instagram - Pull and animate photos from Instagram feed:

Awesome! Glad to hear we got it all set up! Enjoy the module!

I really do! Thanks for all your hard work!

Yeah but if you make the changes to the config.js it takes all the fun out learning for people who really want to… I’m not programmer and this would be WAY above my head but I do enjoy tinkering with things… I realize that in the end a total package would push the mirror into more people’s lap though… progress and this would be just a natural progression of things.

You guys that do this stuff are truly amazing and those of us who can’t Thank you!
