I want to have a powerwall, a solar panel and a tesla just to try out this module!

@seann
My suggestion: Fire up the mirror UI on your browser, press F12, move the move over your module, right click -> inspect.
Then look at the styles section and play with switching styles on and off.
Then you can use whatever you need in your own css overwriting main.css in your module.

It seems I have done a bit too much JS programming in recent months… Lol.

@cowboysdude have a look at it and let me know what you think.

So I did a little research and I can’t really comprehend.
I cannot find any developer being just a little rude to you at all!

“Feel free to fork the module and customize it for your own needs.”

Rude?

Only one developer suggesting (!) to you to make your own fork. While I think working with PR’s and improving the original module is better I guess you can just respect his view.

Sorry but we’re all at the beginning at some point (I am as well).
Pointing out someone as rude just because he is not interested in doing the work you suggested is a bit off.

Go ahead, learn more Javascript, do forks and send PR’s.
It’s fun!

Please note there is a more recent module also using the buienradar API called MMM-rain-forecast.

Apart from that can you please post the config entry and confirm that you have cloned the module to the MagicMirror/modules folder and not to the MagicMirror folder itself?

(Sorry, too tempting…)

I’d definitely donate. I love this whole project.

As @broberg said: Freedom! You can do anything and you can use the OS itself for any further Raspbian things you would like. (A mirror as a jdownloader host? possible… Measuring temp in bath room directly using the mirror? possible…)
There are so many possibilities…

Also, you don’t necessarily have to throw any html or setup a web server. It’s all done automatically at the installation.
Yes, if you want to go forward there’s a lot to learn, but I have contributed / played with a lot of modules already and not written more than 3 lines of html (albeit lots of JS)

Guys be careful with the npm vulnerabilities!
It’s not advisable to always fix all of them.
E.g. if a vulnerability wants to have a most recent version of an important dependency, fixing it might even break your working MM because MM can’t work with this new dependency.

If you’re not completely sure what you’re doing then leave them.
They are not errors after all, your modules should work with these vulnerabilities as well.

@cirdan

Hi cirdan,
I’d like to say THANK YOU for the module. I was searching for this for about a year now, also made a thread here asking for it.
Let me also say, this also works for parts of Germany close to the Netherlands (I live close to Duisburg).

I would suggest to present this in the “modules” section for more recognition.
I’d also like to contribute to it, thinking about the possibility for users to show bar graphs or line graphs.
Will send a pull request on github when successful.

MMM-Comics

A module for MagicMirror2 that displays several comic strips (sources updated on demand)

Description

Based on (and forked from) andrecarluccis MMM-DailyDilbert module, this is a module for MagicMirror2 that displays the current daily or random comic strips from famous cartoons. You can choose to display a coloured or a b/w version of the comic strips (b/w does not always work that well, try it out).
Additionally you can choose a daily time frame at which the current daily comic is being shown (supported only for dilbert, dilbert_de and xkcd). For the rest of the day, or if the comic is archived, a random comic is picked.

Have fun!

@veldje I have solved this by including a “birthday” calendar from google and giving at an own symbol.
For that I have created an own calendar within google, transferred all birthdays to that (didn’t take long) and included that calendar into the config.

Another (and hopefully the last!) COVID19-related module.

https://github.com/lavolp3/MMM-COVID19-Inc

This one can show

• incidence rates of different districts(Landkreise) in Germany.
• a map of Germany with colored districts.
• a list of highest/lowest incidence rates.

The rates are pulled from a private API that refers to RKI data, but may not be complete / up to date.
I just recently found a few data points missing.

Screenshot:

@matt216 no errors here.
You could also try @qistophs fork
https://github.com/qistoph/MMM-MyCommute
If you’e not doing already.
The original module has been abandoned.

@matt216 there might be an issue with your start and end time. Can you post your config for the module?

@matt216 said in MMM-MyCommute:

@sdetweil thanks for the help (again).
I’m not sure I understand… it seems to take a second browser loading the page for the main mirror to display the module.

See my response. Every time any instance on any browser (pi/laptop) gets created, it sends a request to the server-side node_helper. This happens with most of the modules.
node_helper sends it back and all the instances get fresh data and certain functions get triggered.

Here is the client side: running when you open the broser (note the this.getdata() function.

start: function() {

    Log.info('Starting module: ' + this.name);

    //start data poll
    this.getData();
    var self = this;
    setInterval(function() {
      self.getData();
    }, this.config.pollFrequency);
      
  },

and here the client side receives the data from node_helper : note the this.isHidden=false and this.show() functions at the end.

socketNotificationReceived: function(notification, payload) {
    if ( notification === 'GOOGLE_TRAFFIC_RESPONSE' + this.identifier ) {

      this.predictions = payload;

      if (this.loading) {
        this.loading = false;
        if (this.isHidden) {
          this.updateDom();
          this.show(1000, {lockString: this.identifier});
        } else {
          this.updateDom(1000);
        }
      } else {
        this.updateDom();
        this.show(1000, {lockString: this.identifier});        
      }
      this.isHidden = false;
    }

Additional question - the startTime option doesn’t seem to be working correctly for me. The module doesn’t display in the morning on the pi/mirror, even after the specified startTime. Weirdly, when I browse to the mirror from my laptop or phone (http://ip:8080) that seems to trigger the module to display on the pi.
Any ideas there?!

I think I remember with this module that it has an odd hide/show behaviour. Are you working with MMM-pages or any module scheduler being able to hide modules?
When you open your browser, a request is sent to node_helper and it sends the data back to the module (like Sam said, ALL instances). With receipt f the data the module.show() function gets triggered, so it gets shown again while it has been hidden for some reason before.

Ciao thank you

Grazie.
This one is very very expensive but interesting. Let us know if you’re satisfied with it.

FYI, this is how I manipulate CSS to get brighter text:

.dimmed {
  color: #aaaaaa;
}

.normal {
  color: #fdfdfd;
}

.bright {
  color: #ffffff;
}

body {
  color: #fdfdfd;
}

The selectors are usually used in the modules to highlight or dim text. The body color property is the fallback in case no other selector is used. So I set it as the same color as normal.

You can find all the selectors in main.css where less birght colors have been used. In custom.css you can overwrite the properties.

@mickyvi Ciao Micky,

Meanwhile I am using a mirror provided by Goldjunge_Chriz though one of his mirror distribution activities. I think the chrome spy is nearly as good and better than the mirastar.
Very important is the monitor. You need to play with brightness (as low as possible), contrast (as high as possible) and ( in my case) also the control of each rgb color to get best results for the black background.

Also don’t forget that you can set brightness of the text to a higher level via css.

But none of the mirrors i have used are even close to an actual mirror. It is different.

@strawberry-3-141 Really great work man!

@0m4r said in Introducing MMM-euro2021:

I have added some layout improvements and also reduced the number of API calls for the time no game in on

Looks very good.
I am failing getting my module based on football-data.org finished in time.
Hopefully until end of the week.
Have you included tables?
