Hi there,
this is my first mirror I built like 2 years ago.
Components:
RPi3
monitor from discarted laptop
monitor controller from Aliexpress
Wood from hobby market
Not-that-okay spy mirror from local mirror factory (Very dark reflection and display is visible even during daytime)
Black painted back of an old ikea wardrobe (dont know the name of the material, but it’s solid and light)

Currently I’m using these modules with changed locale to Czech:
Clock
Currentweather and Weatherforecast - I cut out most of the features
Calendar - mapped to family-shared profile of my google calendar
Newsfeed - modified for ČT24 RSS (Czech national news tv)
MMM-Snow - snowfall effect on December
MMM-NowPlayingOnSpotify - pretty cool, but I also cut out most of the features
MMM-HonorKills - My module showing my current status of honor kills in WoW
MMM-DumpsterDay - My module notifying me, when I have to put my trash, plastic and greenery dumpster in front of my house (as it’s quite irregular in my town)

These days I’m preparing for building a new better mirror as I’ve ordered a perfect mirror from @Goldjunge_Chriz, who is shipping it from Germany.
Also I got into Blender modeling, so I’m considering creating a board to fix the Raspberry and monitor controller way better.
If my conscience (wife) allows it I will even destroy the wall to lead the cables in the wall, so it can be hanged without any visible cables :)
Anyway I think I will make some kind of timelapse video for the next project, so I can share it if you guys are interested :)

Have a good one and stay safe!

Hey guys,
I’d like to share my rebuilt mirror in my home office. I ordered a brand new mirror by @Goldjunge_Chriz and it looks dope!
In this take I put both power supply cables through the gooseneck in the wall, so while it’s hanging, there are no cables visible.
Also did some lesser css modifications.
It’s not rich for modules, but I like it that way.
Right now I’m considering 3D printing some fancy corners (like witcher schools medalions or sth), to cover the croocked frame joins.

I appreciate any constructive criticism. Please excuse the low photo quality, my phone died.

Description:

This module works as a reminder to take the dumpster from the driveway to the gate on every odd Tuesday and Monday before. Although the use sounds very specific, it can be easily changed to any reminder on recurring days.

Version 1.0

Initial version

Version 1.1

Now there are 3 possible cans, user can disable each one in config or change the image via css.
Pulsing is now switchable.
Changed the startDate input format.

Thank you for your time and constructive criticism! :)

@cowboysdude I made the module as the trash takeout is quite irregular in my town. Plastic waste is collected every 28 days, green waste is collected every 21 days and regular garbage every odd tuesday.

Say whatever you want, I still find it way more useful than a module telling me I’m handsome.

@BD0G Exactly: 24 = DD, 10=MM, 2019=YYYY, so 24.10.2019 is DD.MM.YYYY, an European standard format :)
What I quoted from your post: 11.13.2019 is not applicable as there is no 13th month :)

var startDateYear = startDate.substring(6,10);
var startDateMonth = startDate.substring(3,5);
var startDateDay = startDate.substring(0,2);

That’s the exact code that cuts the date to year, month and day variables, so day is the first two numbers, month are another two numbers and year are last four numbers :)

Hello there,
I’m quite happy with my build, yet I consider getting a better display that has less backlight and black is really black, so the screen is not visible.
Currently I’m using display from decomissioned laptop.
What type of display would you recommend for that?
Thank you!

@BD0G awesome mate! So glad the module is used :)

@dinschal Hey there, it’s not possible to set it via config right now, but it’s quite easy to modify it in the MMM-DumpsterDay.js file:

Find folloing code (about row 167)

// Trashday today
if (difference%datediff_1 == 0) {
result = 1
Log.info(“It’s trashday !!”);
}

and change the value of result to 0.
So it’s:

// Trashday today
if (difference%datediff_1 == 0) {
result = 0
Log.info(“It’s trashday !!”);
}

Please let me know if this solution worked as desired.
Have a good one; Greetings from Czechia.

@elmago Hey there, I did check your request and I will work it in, but these days I’m super busy with work so just give me some time ;)

@elmago Hi there,

does that mean the garbage collection is skipped that week and next collection is next week ?
Or the garbage collection is just postponed to next non-holiday day?

I can try to add this functionality, I just need to understand the scenario :)

Cheers.

Also you can offer these already manufactured in the next round. I dont know how about guys, but I was not very strict about the dimensions of my mirror.
As @malevolent suggested a 10% warrant would be fair.

@goldjunge_chriz Awesome! :) Could you please just confirm I’m among those whose payment arrived correctly? :) Thanks :)

@jordes First part of the automation is ssh call for shutdown.

Finding a working script took me a while, but it works like a charm without any excessive MM modules.

All you need is to setup passwordless ssh connection between HA and MM.
