    • RE: Scheduled restart for MM or module

      Thank you so much, that was exactly what I was looking for!
      I can’t believe I did not find it with by searching, I thought I checked all the modules and forums…

      Someone added the possibility to get rid of the scrolling bars in the iframe module. I just copied the code from the iframe module and it works in the iframe reload module, too.

      I don´t want to take credit for it since I just copied it, but if it helps someone else, here is what I did:
      I added “iframe.scrolling = this.config.scrolling;” in the module file, there:

      // Override dom generator.
      getDom: function() {
      var iframe = document.createElement(“IFRAME”);
      iframe.style = “border:0”
      iframe.width = this.config.width;
      iframe.height = this.config.height;
      iframe.scrolling = this.config.scrolling;
      iframe.src = this.config.url;
      return iframe;
      },

      After that, you can set “scrolling:“no”,” in the within the module in the config file.

      Thanks again!

    • Scheduled restart for MM or module

      Hi,

      I´m in the middle of building my first MM and know next to nothing about coding. Thanks to Google I came very far, but now I´m stuck.

      Here is my problem: I want to show the stream of my foscam camera to my mirror. I tried the module “MMM-ipCam” but i could not get it to work (it always returned “undefined object”). But I am able to see the stream in a browser via URL. So I got the iframe module and now the stream is shown on my mirror, yeah.

      But: The stream freezes after a few hours. Sometimes it runs for a day and a half, sometimes for only 10 hours. After restarting the mirror, all is fine again.

      This is what I already tried:

      • I copied the “update interval” section from the compliments module and inserted it in the iframe module. I thought this would fetch the stream every few minutes and solve the problem. I don’t even now if I did it right, but it did not help.

      • I looked up cron jobs and thought maybe I could start and stop the mirror every six hours. But since I know nothing about it and I did not find the right command to quit the mirror (I know start is npm start, but what would I say to quit…?) I gave up.

      Can you help me with a few lines of code that I can insert into the module or for restarting the mirror?
