We’re happy to announce that KristjanESPERANTO’s 3rd-party modules repository has found a new home at MagicMirrorOrg.

Thank you, Kristjan, for donating your repository to the public and for all the work you’ve put into it.

We have (hopefully) updated all links:

Github repository: https://github.com/MagicMirrorOrg/MagicMirror-3rd-Party-Modules
3rd-party-modules website: https://modules.magicmirror.builders/
3rd-party-modules json file: https://modules.magicmirror.builders/data/modules.json

In the medium term, we plan to replace the currently used wiki with a different onboarding process for 3rd-party modules.

Hi,

this is my first MM module and may others find it useful :)

Download and infos: MMM-RepoStats

It’s about repository statistics for Docker, GitHub or GitLab repositories:

GitLab with private data (access token needed):

Let me know if something is missing or not solved in the right way, any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks,

Karsten.

@bugsounet said in Questions about update:

Its very poor to read this from a developer

is there a difference between running an old system and running a public forum without https?

karsten13

A new module showing flights in a defined area.

I know there are at least 2 modules out using the same api, but this one additionally shows the planes on a map.

Git Repo: https://gitlab.com/khassel/MMM-Flights

For installation instructions and config options visit the above url.

@KristjanESPERANTO said in Automatic checking of all MagicMirror² modules:

karsten13 has already suggested the GitHub API and I have tested it, but if you make requests for 1000 modules you’ll got blocked quickly. I haven’t found another good approach yet.

2 ideas:

did you try to authenticate with a user before making the api requests? AFAIR we solved a similar problem at work with authentication …
if first idea doesn’t work an ugly solution is to work with e.g. a timer or sleep statement because these infos are not changed very often this could be a long running nightly job

my approach …

The following script must be executed in the magicmirror folder and creates another script restore.sh. This result script should be saved (on my server it is under git control) and can be executed (again in the magicmirror folder) to restore the old system (or bringing the old config to a new system).

#!/bin/sh

base="$(cd "$(dirname "$0")" && pwd)"

restore="$base/restore.sh"
config="${1:-config/config.js}"
css="css/custom.css"
modules="modules"

# Tests
[ -f "$base/$config" ] || (echo "config.js does not exists" && exit 1)
[ -f "$base/$css" ] || (echo "custom.css does not exists" && exit 1)
[ -d "$base/$modules" ] || (echo "modules directory does not exists" && exit 1)


echo "#!/bin/sh" > $restore
echo "" >> $restore
echo "base=\"\$(cd \"\$(dirname \"\$0\")\" && pwd)\"" >> $restore

echo "" >> $restore

echo "mkdir -p \$base/config" >> $restore
echo "mkdir -p \$base/css" >> $restore
echo "mkdir -p \$base/modules" >> $restore

echo "" >> $restore

echo "cat > \$base/$config <<\"EOF\"" >> $restore
cat <$base/$config >> $restore
echo "EOF" >> $restore
echo "" >> $restore

echo "cat > \$base/$css <<\"EOF\"" >> $restore
cat <$base/$css >> $restore
echo "EOF" >> $restore
echo "" >> $restore

for dir in $(find "$modules" -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -type d)
do
  [ -f "$dir/.git/config" ] && mods="$mods $(cat $dir/.git/config | grep 'url = ' | sed 's|.*url = ||g')"
done

for repo in $mods
do
  echo "cd \$base/$modules && git clone $repo" >> $restore
done

echo "" >> $restore

for repo in $mods
do
  moddir="$modules/$(echo $repo | sed -r 's|.*\/(.*)|\1|g;s|.git||g')"
  [ -f "$base/$moddir/package.json" ] && echo "cd \$base/$moddir && npm install" >> $restore
done

echo "Created restore script $restore" 

chmod +x $restore

@WarpWandererX said in How Do You Remotely Manage and Automate Updates for Multiple MagicMirror Setups?:

Has anyone set up automated updates for modules, system packages, or even Pi OS?

I played around with bootc a few months ago and used mm as example.

It uses fedora as os and it gets weekly updates.

@plainbroke said in Calvin and Hobbs:

The original cahcomic.css contains only this.

I updated my fork with the original css, for updating go into the module folder and do

# remove all changed stuff in this repo out of the way:
git reset --hard
# pull new version:
git pull

@plainbroke said in Calvin and Hobbs:

I do not know how to send them to you or even share them. Not sure why the css was changed either. If it is not to technical I could try to load it somewhere on here for you…

you could publish the content of the file here as text using a code block
