    • RE: MMM-solar showing "Loading" and is doing nothing .... did someone get it running?

      @sdetweil
      I’m not seeing any errors but I see something strange…
      Down at the bottomit says:
      “…
      Sockets connected & moduls started …
      Launching application.
      …”
      Then a bit futher down a line reads:
      “…
      Notification: GET_SOLAR Payload: [object object]
      …”

      Looks like it’s missing data that it needs to find somewere. Am I right?

      @sdetweil … WOW! :fearful_face: :fearful_face: :fearful_face:
      Didn’t know about this! Looks nice!
      But back to the problem…in the console tab I can see some errors but not about the Solar module. There are 2 warnings that the Solar module got a notification from another module but don’t think that’s a problem.
      I can see 3 errors for the modules: MMM-Buienradar, weatherforcast (openweathermap is unauthorized yet it works fine) and for my crypto coins chart (it can’t find cryptocoin picture/logo’s in a specific folder).
      So the Solar-module should work fine looking at this.

    • RE: Updating 6db61b4..de57daa

      @dazza120 Thanks for the tip!
      Downside of that is that I don’t learn how things work.
      Doing it myself (with some help of you all wonderfull people here) is the best way of learning things.
      I do have SSH setup so I can dail in via my smartphone…but first I need to get better in the commandline commands.

    • MMM-solar showing "Loading" and is doing nothing .... did someone get it running?

      I’m having trouble to get the module “MMM-Solar” to work as it should.
      There are only 3 things needed to configure the module and I have all 3 of them in the config.js file. The API-key, my userID and my systemID.
      But on running the MM2 the module only displays “Loading…”.
      I feel like I’m missing a step! I feel like I need to connect my Enphase system to my API-account. But I have no idea how or even if that is needed.

      Is there someone who got this module to work and wants to help me?
      Or is there a way to get in touch with the module creator so I can ask him what I’m doing wrong?

      @idoodler Okay. Thanks for that answer! hehehehe…
      Anyway my MM2 is working like it should be after I moved that folder and did the git pull again.
      But about the steps to take on how to update a module or a dependency or Node.js in my case… is that written down somewere here on the forum?
      Like… all the steps someone needs to take in order to keep MM2 in shape?

      @dazza120 I’m not using the standard calendar.
      But after the update my MM2 works like before. Only the modules I’m working on are still not showing correctly…becouse I’m working on them to get them to work properly. :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat: :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:
      But what do you mean with: “…is up the swannie”?
      you mean it doesn’t work?

      Just moved the package-lock.js to a new folder “Old files” and run “sudo git pull && npm install” again and it worked for me.
      I do get some warnings from “time-grunt@2.0.0” and 2 from npm skipping optional dependency’s but below that it reads: MagicMirror installation succesfull! NICE!.. well…that last word isn’t part of the update! Hahaha

      And below that it found 9 vulnerabilities. Is that a problem?

      I have the same problem as @costascontis and will try to delete that file.
      But I also would like to know what the latest version of Node.js is.
      At https://github.com/nodesource/distributions#debinstall I can see a version 11.x.
      my version on the pi 3B+ is v9.11.2
      Is that the latest version or must I update to v11.x via:
      sudo su
      curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_11.x | bash -
      apt-get install -y nodejs

    • resizing ALL modules and content

      I want to know if it is posible to scale all modules at once as they are!
      I’m building a MM for a 37" screen (in portrait mode)but also want the same
      MM running in portrait style on the original 7" pi screen.
      I thought the MM would be scaled to screen size it’s connected to. So I was expecting to have small/tiny modules.
      Yet they are big and all mixed up.

      So is there a way to have all modules (incl. text, icons, etc.) be lets say 20% of the normale size?

    • HC-SR04 Ultrasonic sensor question

      Hi there,

      got a simple question about the Ultrasonic sensor that I want to use with module MMM-Swipe (it uses 2 Ultrasonic sensors) to controle how I go from one page to the next and back: Can I just drill 4 holes in my frame for the sender and reciever “tubes”? Or am I blocking other things that are on the little board by doin gso?

      When I google for support items there is also a hole for this metalic part with 4.000 on it.
      NO idea what it it’s function is but just asking here before I build my frame and later find out I needed to cut that out to. :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat: :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat: :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:

    • RE: MMM-Formula1 module nog working

      @peter I left the “season”-line out of the config this time and it display’s the current 2018 season. I was hoping it would display the new ranking already but I think it’s still to soon for the new season to show anything about it. I’ll just leave it as is in the moment and alter it (if needed) when the new season is starting.

    • RE: what microphone to use for voice controle

      HI @mykle1,
      ope your dinner was great and I didn’t spoil it. :smiling_face_with_halo:

      I did a search for “microphone” here and found alot of posts. I found a very long one that I’m going to read completely tonight at home (https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/6241/hello-lucy?page=1) but after a quick browse through the post I think for now I’m going for a PS3 Eye. For now I just need a cheap plug-and-play device for short range. I want my mirror to react only when I’m standing in front of it. Not when I’m sitting in my livingroom watching tv. So I don’t mind that it it only good for about a meter away. For that money… it’s perfect. And it comes with an webcam I could use for other modules.

    • what microphone to use for voice controle

      Hi there,

      My MM2 is comming together nicely. Got most of my modules installed and working.
      Have my Revit drawings almost complete to start making the frame.
      Only thing is sorting out the Swipe module to use with the pages module.
      And I’m interested in Mykle1’s “Lucy” module.
      A voice controle module.
      Fot that I’m looking for a microphone but can I just hookup any microphone to my Pi 3B+ and have it working right out of the box?
      Must I use a usb microphone ore connect it to the GPIO pins?

      Need some help on this.

    • RE: MMM-Formula1 module nog working

      Hi @peter,
      I have it set to 2018 hoping it would show last season. I thought 2019 would be empty because that season hasen’t started yet. But here is the module part from my config file (Don’t mind the //. This way I can add the module to the config without causing it to fail):

      // {
      // module: ‘MMM-Formule1’,
      // position: ‘top_right’,
      // header: ‘F1 uitslagen’,
      // config: {
      // calendar: true,
      // season: 2018
      // }
      // },

      O…M…G!!! :tired_face: :tired_face: :tired_face: :tired_face: :tired_face: :tired_face: :tired_face: :tired_face:
      I see were I did go wrong!
      It’s Formula with an A! Not Formule with an E!!!
      Feel so stupid right now! :dizzy_face: :dizzy_face: :dizzy_face: :dizzy_face:

      On the other hand… THANKS for helping! If I didn’t copy and paste my config file here I would have looked at my config a lot of times thinking what is wrong without realising that it was a typo! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

    • MMM-Formula1 module nog working

      Hi Formula 1 fans! :winking_face:

      No doubt you have the module: MMM-Formula1 already installed and running for upcomming season!?
      I just installed it to my MM2 setup and added the standard lines to the config.js file… yet…I get nothing on my screen when running the mirror! Not even a notification that something was not loaded correctly.

      Also I can’t seem to generate the iCal calendar for the calendar module.
      I installed the ical generator but it did not create a calendar for the calendar module the show.

      I can’t show my config.js file content at the moment cause I’m on a windows laptop in the moment and my Pi 3B+ is back in my bag. If you think you can help me out and need to view my config.js file content I can do it tonight when I get home from work.

      Hope I get this module to work. My sons and me can’t wait for season 2019 to get started!
      GO MAX!!! :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes: :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes: :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes:

    • RE: Getting my Google calendar working.... need help.

      Hi @tomlid and Hi @lavolp3 ,

      later in bed I thought of the same thing: listing the 4 calendars individualy.
      The situation is this:
      Calenders from me, my wife and from both my 2 sons are embedded in our family account.
      And I thought I had to input 1 ical calendar for the module to work. But apperantly (like you are showing) I can list more then one! :grinning_face: :grinning_face: :grinning_face:
      (the reason for this family account is that If my Pi is being hacked they don’t get to our personal codes. Our family account only has Embedded stuff and no mails… so basicly it’s empty).

      Only thing now is: I don’t know if I’m pleased with the standard calendar module look.
      I would like a week calendar with colors much like the look and feel of the google calendar itself. But I think that’s just browsing through the list of modules till I find the one I like.
      Hoping that one can handle multiple ical inputs aswell! :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

      Anyway THANK you both for replying and helping me out!

    • RE: Getting my Google calendar working.... need help.

      Okay…I’m a step closer!
      Turns out that it is working…only thing is: I can only see the “main” calendar.
      I’ve created a family account with the agenda’s from me, my wife and my kids in it as a “connected/shared/embedded” (or what you call it) calendar.
      Does anybody knows that it even works what I’m trying to do?
      Or is the another calendar module that will work?

    • Getting my Google calendar working.... need help.

      Hi there,

      I’m trying to add my google calendar to the standard calendar module.
      But it’s not working. I’ve used my private ical adress and my config file looks like this:

      {
      			module: "calendar",
      			header: "Agenda",
      			position: "top_left",
      			config: {
      				calendars: [
      				{
      					symbol: "calendar-check-o",
      					url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/*MyUserName*%40gmail.com/private-*MyPrivateCode*/basic.ics"
      //					url: "webcal://www.calendarlabs.com/templates/ical/US-Holidays.ics"
      				}
      				]
      			}
      		},
      

      But on running the MM all I see is: “Er zijn geen afspraken” (Dutch for: There are no appointments)’
      Yet I have an appointment tomorrow.

      Does anybody have the same problem and solved it?
      Or does anybody is using a different module that does work with the private google agenda?
