I made this module because my MM is in my living room, and at night it’s really bright. I found a module that would dim at sunset and brighten at sunrise, but I wanted more control than that. So I forked it and started modifying it.

With MMM-AutoDimmer, you can set schedules with a time to dim, a time to brighten, and how much to dim. You can have multiple schedules so that, for example, it dims at night and it also dims while you’re at work.

The latest version also can react to notifications. I use this in conjunction with a module for HomeAssistant. In my case, I have a schedule that is active 24/7, but only when it receives a notification that my phone is not connected to my home wi-fi. HomeAssistant knows when my phone is connected to my home wi-fi and sends a notification stating whether or not I’m connected. If I’m not connected, the schedule enables and it dims fully (essentially turning off the monitor) to save energy while I’m not home. When I reconnect to wi-fi, that schedule is disabled and it is bright again.

The Home Assistant module can be found here: https://github.com/Fifteen15Studios/MMM-homeassistant-sensors

I recently had to re-do my entire setup. I re-installed Raspbian and MM. When all is said and done, MM loads properly, all modules work, but pressing the Alt key doesn’t seem to do anything. I posted on Reddit but the only person to respond says that they experienced the same thing. Just like me, the Alt key worked fine until a fresh install. Any idea why this is happening or how to fix it?

If it matters, it’s running on a Pi 3B, using pm2 to start MM. I also tried using the sample config file, and it did the same thing.

Looks like this GitHub repo is for connecting the SEMS Portal and Home Assistant. Have you looked into the Home Assistant modules? I have one, that I forked from someone else, that displays the value of sensors from Home Assistant:

And there is another one that can display other information from Home Assistant:

If you have the two systems linked already (the GoodWe solar and Home Assistant) this may be the way to go.
