    • RE: MagicMirror is stolen by commercial

      @done I come across MagicMirror posts daily. Take a look at Reddit … People really seem to love claiming the idea … ;)

      I try not to get annoyed by it too much … ;)

    • RE: This forum is temporarily unavailable due to excessive load.

      Although the forum is rapidly growing (something I’m very grateful for), the issues aren’t caused by limited capacity.

      The forum is based on nodeBB, an opensource community platform. NodeBB has a lot of power, features and functionalities. But it also turns out to come with a major downside: it appears to be extremely unstable.

      Both me and @paviro are doing the best we can to keep the forum up and running. But unfortunately, we haven’t found a the perfect recipe to keep it running stable.

      If someone is a master in nodeBB configuration (and has a proven track record!) please let me know! We could certainly use some helping hands. :)

    • (2.1.0, API) Option to set the minimum version number of the MagicMirror framework for your module.

      In version 2.1.0 (the current develop branche) the module and nodeHelper API both feature the requiresVersion variable. This allows you to set the minimum version number of the MagicMirror framework that is necessary for your module to run correctly. This is important, because version 2.1.0 will contain some API changes that might prevent your module from running in older versions.

      More information about this feature can be found here: https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror/tree/develop/modules#requiresversion

      Example code:

      Module.register("testModule", {
      
          requiresVersion: "2.1.0",
      
          start: function() {
             // do something
          }
      });
      

      Of course, this feature would be way more powerfull if it was available starting from version 2.0.0. Unfortunately I did not have the time yet to invent a time machine. Therefor you can use a workaround if you really must do some manual checking. Starting from version 2.1.0, the frontend javascript will have a global variable called version. This is a string that represents the current version of the MagicMirror. In the node helper, this string is available via global.version.

      So, if absolutely necessary, you can use the following code in your module:

      // main module
      if (!version) {
          // this is an old version, give the user a warning and don't perform any other new API calls.
      }
      
      // node helper
      if (!gobal.version) {
          // this is an old version, give the user a warning and don't perform any other new API calls.
      }
      

      Since this feature is still in the develop branch, it’s not final and might change. Suggestions are welcome.

    • Introduce yourself!

      Because I’m very curious who is building the MagicMirror, I thought it would be fun to introduce ourselves. Most of you will probably know me by know, but a little bit more personal info can’t hurt … ;)

      I’m Michael Teeuw, 34 years old. Engaged with a beautiful flight attendant, father of the 8 month old future-maker; Enzo. And a self employed business owner.

      I love tinkering with electronics (Arduino, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi, Etc …), enjoy 3D-printing on my Lulzbot Mini, do a lot of development (iOS Swift, C++, JavaScript, PHP) and enjoy good designs.

      My best known project is the MagicMirror, currently working on an Automatic Curtain project and previously finished the PowerSuit. Besides from my maker projects, I’ve got a few Apps in the Apple App Store.

      Although this isn’t my best picture, it’s probably the most fitting image to post on the MagicMirror forum … 😂
