    • RE: [MMM-Motion-Detection] Motion Detection through PiCam or USB Webcam

      @gismo2006 unfortunately since the module was forked from the facial recognition one and uses the same underlying library for camera control, you will not be able to use both at the same time.

      @jasonarends try to use the default interval of 1, there may be some initialization issues with larger intervals.

    • RE: Help! semester project can't figure out facial recognition

      Try renaming the module directory “MMM-Facial-Recognition” (without “-master”), I don’t have the code in front of me but I believe the mirror software uses the name of the module from your config as the directory name.

    • RE: All stocks modules are not working for me.

      The Google API has been shut down, which is why the stocks module is not working. I’m not sure about the others…

    • RE: Help! semester project can't figure out facial recognition

      @dk7988 said in Help! semester project can’t figure out facial recognition:

      No helper found for module: MMM-Facial-Recognition.

      This error message happens when the node_helper.js file is not found for a module. The Facial-Recognition module does have one, so it appears to not be installed where the mirror expects it. Is the module checked out in the modules directory under the MagicMirror installation?

    • [MMM-Motion-Detection] Motion Detection through PiCam or USB Webcam

      Description

      With this module your mirror will only turn on when it detects motion through the Raspberry Pi’s PiCam or a USB webcam. It also emits motion-detected and motion-stopped notifications that other modules can use.

      This was ported from Paviro’s MMM-Facial-Recognition module mostly to get the python code for camera usage and OpenCV support. Thanks Paviro!

    • RE: MMM-forecast-io -- Localized up to the minute weather

      @pyrosmiley Hello! The precipitation graph is created using an HTML Canvas so unfortunately the colors cannot be tweaked by CSS apart from the border. The Javascript will need to be modified to support additional colors. Here is where the color is set for the curve and further up it draws the horizontal lines and tick marks. Ideally these colors are configurable. I’ve added an issue to the repo to track it!

      I’m knee deep in another project, so if someone wants to take a crack at it, please be my guest :)

      @FlatPepsi Looks awesome! I particularly like the day/night shading in the graph.

    • RE: MMM-forecast-io -- Localized up to the minute weather

      Hello everyone,

      I’ve recently updated the module fixing/adding a couple things:

      • Fixes an issue that made the top of the curve appear off the graph during a heavy storm.
      • Adds alwaysShowPrecipitationGraph to always show the precipitation graph.
      • Adds details on getting the geolocation working by setting the GOOGLE_API_KEY.

      Use git pull in your module to update.

      Enjoy!
      Doug
